Alternator OEM Toyota or Motorcraft

The same thing happened to me. 2012 Toyota Camry LE. The car never asked for anything other than brakes and tires. At 120000 my alternator went out on the beginning of a vacation trip.

I just did alternator on my wife’s Toyota. Paid $340 for it and did it myself in 10min. All I did was google for the parts store that had it in hand. YouTube how to remove and install.

My v6 03 avalon xls alternator replacement, parts and all was under $300

I had to do my alternator a year or so ago in my 07. Considering I got like 240k miles and ten years off the original I went ahead and replaced it with a Toyota OEM one.

Radiator let go about 12 months ago, and suspension is well overdue for new bushings. Also recently had to replace an alternator.
