Reviews of Denso alternator

You can get a remanufactured Denso (OE) for that car: it's probably the most cost-effective option.

I would get a better alternator. Denso (reman or new is fine) seems to be the only one that can take the high electrical demand of the Odyssey.

Denso alternators are the best. Denso makes great products. I do a lot of side work on Hondas and I am so thankful Denso offers their stuff outside of the dealership. I replace alternators, a/c compressors, oxygen sensors, etc all the time and I choose Denso bc it's basically the same exact part you receive in a Honda box but for half the price.

Parts store house brand parts are notoriously poor quality when it comes to electronic parts such as sensors, starters, alternators, etc.

I suggest either getting your OEM DENSO alternator rebuilt at a shop (costs like $60?) or picking up a low mileage used DENSO alternator from a junk yard (or eBay). The Amazon new ones are probably junk and can cause trouble down the line.

If the alternator is OEM, replace it, because is close to the exhaust manifold, it will fail sooner than later.

If you are replacing the alternator, strongly recommend using only Honda dealer sold remanufactured alternators (probably Denso) or an aftermarket Denso brand remanufactured alternator. Lots of problems reported with other brands.

If you’re gonna go through the effort of replacing the alternator, do NOT get cheap shit. Get a new/remanufactured Denso alternator.

Denso alternator is my go to choice for that vehicle.

For my personal vehicles, I replace alternators at 100K with Remy or Denso new alternators and have never had an issue and I save a lot of money by waiting a couple of days.
