Alternator OEM Toyota or OEM Mazda

2004 Camry, had it since my grandfather, did not break down a single time and still on oem stuffs except an alternators and some brake. The most reliable daily I ever had.

I have a 96 that I purchased with 40,000 miles and am just shy of 300,000. Most reliable car I've ever owned. Biggest "issue" I've had was replacing the alternator besides normal maintenance.

My 09 Se Camry V6 currently has 452k km on it. The most reliable thing I have ever owned. The only issues I have had was with it was an alternator at 445k.

I was able to remove/replace the alternator on my Mazda CX-5 without removing any parts as has been mentioned.

Losing power steering, ABS light and battery warning light are all indicators of an electrical problem, most likely alternator.

I needed a new weather strip (DIYed with a $30 part off Amazon) and a new alternator ($400, could have DIYed but didn’t have time to wait for a part to ship).

I just went through a headache replacing my 3rd alternator in 2 years. I took it to the shop and they put an oem alternator in it and told me not to buy the parts store alternators. It's fine if you don't mind pulling them out to replace every year or so.

7 alternators in a row. Wouldnt charge. Or only charged for like a minute.

Not sure what brand of alternator you got but basically all of the reman auto parts stores alternators and starters are total junk. You'd be better off buying a used OEM Toyota one over an auto parts store unit.

Alternator has been replaced 2 times within the year battery is also new and the odds of 2 brand new faulty alternators is pretty slim.
