Alternator OEM Toyota or OEM BMW

Had the same issue a few months back. Put in a new alternator and it’s been perfect since.

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

You need to try using a OEM REMAN or OEM NEW alternator. Aftermarket items can really affect BSD.

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.
