Buy off rockauto and go with denso brand
Alternator is easy. OEM or Denso for sure. It’s a super easy job.
I feel like I got a steal for my alternator replaced in my Avalon. Battery light came on and I went and bought a reman Denso at NAPA for $340 after the refund for the core. It was done in 45 minutes
I went with a reman Denso alternator over a new off brand alternator for my Camry and had no issues.
Update: I ended up sourcing my own parts and sent them a quote from someone else and they matched it. Will have a Denso alternator installed and Costco battery for about $1k.
Manual, buy a reman denso or used or new OEM off the eBay or other seller, harder to rebuild those in my experience.
Have never had to warranty out a denso alternator.
Get a denso reman or be prepared to replace it again in a year.
The alternator (new OEM Denso, 2nd one, installed about 100kmi ago) on my wife's 2007 Solara v6 3MZFE with 227kmi just died last night. She didn't make it home.
I bought reman denso 2 years ago and it lasted 1 year.
