I will always vote for a 10SI or 12SI GM alternator swap on an L-series engine. Affordable conversion bracket. 1-wire GM alternators are simple, reliable, cheap and readily available online but not easy to find in parts stores. 3 wire GM alternators are are easy enough to wire up and are absolutely everywhere in parts stores if you’re more concerned about parts availability and potential breakdowns on long adventures.
I would go for the Pure Energy new Mistubishi that is 190amps for 200 bucks.
hope you got her fixed up... had a similar issues pulled my alt and gave her a deep CLEAN and working again but ordered this up [https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00M01GQ3C?ref=ppx\\_yo2ov\\_dt\\_b\\_fed\\_asin\\_title](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00M01GQ3C?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title) exact part number from mitsu cross referenced. EXACT FIT AND WORKS LIKE A CHAMP now to have the OEM rebuilt and have it as a spare
The OEM alternator is only 55 amps and costs nearly $400, which is stupid expensive and wholly inadequate for off-road lighting, audio amplifiers, and other additional accessories so I decided to go with the CS130D GM alternator, purchased for under $100 new (no core charge) and has a 130 amp capacity.
I'm getting 14.8v from the upgraded alternator at 700rpm and maintaining 14.2v when every possible accessory and light is turned on at idle.
+1 for Denso. Friend of mine got a used Mitsubishi alternator for his Murano with slightly higher Amp rating (doesn't matter, just means it will handle load better).
My shitbox, I replaced my alternator just for my window motor to go bad, I replaced the window motor just for the thermostat to go bad the next day, it’s inevitable.
I have one with 44k miles sitting in the garage right now with a bad TPS and an oil leak.
The last drive down the street saw me with a dead alternator and blown alternator fuse. Replacing those two resulted in the above surprises afterwards.
Even replacing the alternator is a half day knuckle busting job assuming you know what you are doing.
Also today, need naman bilhan ng alternator which is 40k yung genuine parts kasi nag oovercharge yung battery and other things pa na di ko pa alam kung anong sira yung lalabas pa.
My then 97 Lancer GSR broke down in the middle of a highway on my way due to alternator and throttle body issues.
three alternators in a Cadillac, even "new GM" are remans, only way to get a new one (never installed, made of new parts, new for you) is to buy a new car.
