Alternator Bosch or Denso

Yes a VR6 alternator will work on an ABA. But you need to know the difference between a Valeo 90A pulley and a Bosch 90A. They are not interchangeable.

I got mine in and running Perfect for people who need a little more room running ITBs It even charges better than my rebuilt bosch did (hitting 14v)

if you're planning on keeping the car a while then $365 installed is reasonable for a refurbished bosch (use the same mfr & amp that was OE) and that should come w/warantee & last about as long as the original.

yea, just pick up a new one at like autozone, get the bosch one if you can.

Just did this mod today and my voltage went up to 14.4v at the battery/alternator!!!! Wahooooo!!! And by the way...the car drives sooooooo much better!!! NIGHT AND DAYYY DIFFERENCE!!! I'm glad you posted this up...i never knew!! Cheap $1.50 mod and it actually WORKS!

buy a brand new Bosch one....the aftermarket ones suck, ask me how I know....this is one of the few areas where buying the original bosch oem part makes a huge difference...they are usually around 30 dollars and should be lasting you at least 2-3 years

you should be able to find bosch for way under 300 don't get anything elkse unless you trust it. I had 2 no namers fail within 6 months. bosch is going over 2 years now.

Multi rib surpentine belt. self tensioning alternator only three pullies crank, wpump and alt. No tensioning pulley etc. bracket pn: 028 903 143 AD alternator: Bosch AL0185X Then there is a big spring that goes between the alt and the bracket to tension it all. sweet piece.

Whithin the past year the car has had a new bosch alternator. I jump the car, it makes between 12-13 volts at the battery when running.

My newly remanufactured Bosch 120amp alternator was extremely hot last night on the end of a 500 mile trip. Alt light never came on, all electricals were good, but there was a burning smell form the vents that seemed to be coming form the alternator's location in the engine bay. I touched the casing and it was very hot. Now this morning the battery is stone cold dead.
