Alternator Denso or Duralast

DENSO remanufactured is solid.

Get Denso 2104148 that’s what I recently got. Works great!

I put a remanufactured Autozone on mine in a pinch because that’s all the was available. Never trusted it. Replaced it about a year later with the Denso remanufactured for peace of mind.… when I took the autozone one off the bearing was squeaking pretty bad. Denso has given me zero problems, going on about 4 years.

The next best thing for Honda is DENSO as they are the actual OEM supplier. 90% chance ur old alternator says DENSO on the side (as long as it's the original).

I just had everything you mentioned done on my 2017 Camry. I paid about 900 but the alternator was denso which makes oem parts for Toyota.

Get it from rock auto. Remanned Denso. Been using it works good

I would go with a Denso remanufactured alternator. I've used the Advance Auto alternators in a Honda Odyssey, Lexus IS250 and my '08 TL. They all failed within 2 years. I don't think Auto Zone parts are any better than Advanced Auto's. The Denso has lasted 3 years and is still going.

Just make sure to buy either new OEM, used OEM, or a good rebuild like Denso. Parts store ones have a bad record of either being bad directly out of the box, or crapping out in short order.

Believe it or not, though I installed a brand new alternator(Duralast gold) that turned out to be bad from the start and I had to replace it again(so I guess what I’m saying is check the tention on your belt, but don’t rule out the new alternator as - also - being bad), been 2 years since tho.

After buying 4 reman "Dura-CRAP" alternators in less than 3 months... I cut the already bad plug pigtail off a Camry in the JY and bought it and the Denzo Alternator it had, drove the car like that for 2 more years before I parked it.
