Alternator Bosch or Denso

I got denso on my car and it's perfectly fine

Denso by a very wide margin. The rest are not even close in quality.

Buy Denso remanufactured alternators only. Many many people have reported problems on Odys and Pilots with other brand alternators. Remanufactured and in a Denso box is what you want.

The forums are riddled with people who tried to save a few bucks & got what they paid for. The DME on an e90 is extremely fickle. DO NOT buy an alternator unless it\u2019s a Bosch.

Try a Denso alternator. Somtimes those cheap ones at the auto stores just dont last.

Volvo tech here, Bosch. Just replace the whole thing, it's not worth doing the brush job only to find that you should've just done the whole thing first.

I would suggest Denso for the Honda. With a high amp usage like an Odyssey, anything, but Denso will cause the battery light to be on intermittently.

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

Alternator. And unlike prior generations of Bosch alternators you can't replace just the regulator, which is usually what fails. Gotta buy the whole piece.

So, OK, ended up getting a Bosch Reman from IMC, installed it to find out it was only producing 10Volts @ idle. Took it back out, and installed an Ultima which put out 14Volts @ idle.
