Denso Alternator

My auto shop is replacing the alternator on my 2013 Sienna for $657 with a DENSO part which is the only brand you should be using IMO.

Pros: DENSO part recommended
Vehicle: Toyota Sienna

Denso for sure, will last as long as the original, I think 20 years was a good life. The no name and parts store brand ones almost always fail shortly after install

Pros: long lifespan, original quality
Cons: generic brands fail quickly

With alternators and starters, only get Denso new or remanufactured if you can. The part store remans are junk.

Pros: Denso new or remanufactured
Cons: part store remans junk

OEM Volvo Alternator

Next and least expensive, would be to buy a new alternator from Volvo and have them install it. It could be that there is a known issue with the alternator that you put on there if it's not from Volvo.

Vehicle: Volvo XC90
