Owner reviews for alternator

Denso or nothing. You'll be doing this again in about 2 years if you chose poorly.

Bought a used Valeo alternator, and sure enough, the charging problems went away, and it starts charging as soon as I start the car.

After more trouble shooting I felt that the alt needed replacing and not just the rebuild kit. After removing the unit (what a PITA)... Ended up buying a RMMAL00134 Reman by Magneti Marelli for around $140 after tax and shipping. Went in without any problems and completely fixed my issue.

I will always vote for a 10SI or 12SI GM alternator swap on an L-series engine. Affordable conversion bracket. 1-wire GM alternators are simple, reliable, cheap and readily available online but not easy to find in parts stores. 3 wire GM alternators are are easy enough to wire up and are absolutely everywhere in parts stores if you’re more concerned about parts availability and potential breakdowns on long adventures.

90% is the alternator: get a reman Bosch. The "squeaky serpentine belt" is actually the bearings inside the alternator on their last legs.

I needed a new weather strip (DIYed with a $30 part off Amazon) and a new alternator ($400, could have DIYed but didn’t have time to wait for a part to ship).

Sometimes when u replace the alternator but the battery is bad it'll just fry your new alternator.

Mesmo um Valeo novo está caríssimo, pede mais orçamentos.

I've got a 2017 ford escape needs a new alternator costs 1100 $, wtf for a Ford not happy.

I just put a new alternator and the batty is dead again but when I jump it the car run fine until the next .morning I am going Crazy trying to figure this.
