Pros: good for a couple years
Cons: alternator failed twice

Wouldn\u2019t recommend unless you like spending your time on the side of the road or at the dealer. Mine just went back to my local dealer today for its 4th alternator in 32k total miles, 3rd one in the last 6 months. Literally just got the car back 5 days ago for the same issue.

Pros: Fun to drive
Cons: unreliable, frequent alternator issues
Vehicle: Audi
Mileage: 51500 km

Had an alternator problem (which was a recall) that completely shut down the car in the middle of driving (dash and all electronics turned off) leaving me stranded to wait for a tow truck. Audi fixed it for free.

Pros: Audi fixed it for free
Cons: alternator problem, shut down car
Vehicle: Audi A7

Die neueren Generatoren sind heute noch Müll (Haltbarkeit). Musste ich erst in meinem A6 erleben (der zu meinem Glück noch auf Garantie ging). Im RS6 gehen die Dinger auch am laufenden Band flöten.

Cons: schlechte Haltbarkeit, häufige Ausfälle
Vehicle: Audi A6

Unfortunately it’s proprietary Hyundai/Kia part. It’s now a common problem that if the alternator goes, so does the transmission because the low voltage fries the shift control solenoid. Lots of people complaining about this and yes, it happened to me.

Cons: proprietary part, common failure, fries transmission
Vehicle: Kia
