Alternator Denso or OEM Volkswagen

As another recommended I would have gone denso or Bosch or something. But these newer Honda alternators are expensive and around me hard to get.

I did my rebuilt denso alternator for $450. Oil changes for $20 ( my oil and filter $40 from walmart) just for comparison. this is on crv.

Denso remanufactured is solid I’ve had an alternator on my fzj-80 as well as a ac compressor both solid and that’s like 6 years ago

The lowest cost one I see worth buying at RockAuto is the wai global but for 344 you can get a new denso which would be the way I would go if you don't rebuild it yourself

The alternator is a Denso 210-1165, 150-amp unit.

With Toyota we normally will get reman denso alternators. Napa has the best stock in my area of the denso alternators

Alternator stopped charging while driving and it slung grease all over the engine bay and hood.

I bought a reman Denso from NAPA. First one worked but sounded like a rattling box of rocks from the getgo. A week later I swapped it out for another Denso Reman and it has been working fine for 3-4 years now.

And try and go with the Denso. Some of those are Chinese sweatshop garbage.

I hate buying reman. Every time I do, I opt for the reman OE part (in this case, it would be Denso) but they always fail early.
