Alternator Bosch or OEM Mazda

bosch alternator is better. get a bosch alternator.

Rockauto.com shows reman units, both Bosch and Valeo. As far as interchange with Bosch, I dont know, but worked at the dealer and they always asked if it was Bosch or Veleo because it could not be determined by Vin.

I managed to get a reman Bosch 150a/140a last year from Advance Auto for around $190.

I just replaced the one in my daughter's Mk 4 with a rebuilt 120A Bosch one from Rock Auto last week.

I would go Bosch if I had the option. Mine went out on a road trip. I had to go with what option was available at the auto store I was able to limp to. Lucky there was one close by but it was who knows what brand. It was my only option so I bought it. Probably duralast or something but it’s working 2 years later.

I had a car get flooded for 6 months and the Bosh alternator still worked perfectly for another 21 years. Would buy again

Upon retrieving the information to answer you correctly I discovered that my original alternator was a Bosch 140Amp/14Volt. My new alternator is an A-Premium 140Amp/12Volt.

I've replaced the alternator Bosch 0124615028 with an identical part number one. Then I replaced the F00M-145-435(or 385 depending on where you look) regulator on it with a AS-PL ARE0075P. Both regulates to the same voltage, 14.2V.

Don\u2019t get a Bosch

I replaced the Alternator on my 2016 Mini Cooper Paceman with a brand new Bosch Alternator. For whatever reason the Alternator is only putting out 11-11.6 volts.
