Alternator Denso or VALEO
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.
Remember the old Bosch and Valeo alternators where the brushes were built into the regulator, which cost $15 and came off the back with two screws? Pepperidge Farm remembers.
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 went out a few days ago, replaced it with a remanufactured Denso from rockauto. It was a pain to install , now I'm getting code P0335 for crank position sensor. Car turns over and cranks but does not want to turn on .
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.
