Alternator VALEO or AC DELCO

Had the same in reverse. Bosch factory, Valeo worked fine though.

Alternators don\u2019t exist so you\u2019ll be using aftermarket brands like AC Delco unless you can find a rebuilt Denso.

For the price difference just get ACdelco they’re a reliable brand that doesn’t create shit and will stand behind a warranty.

Remember the old Bosch and Valeo alternators where the brushes were built into the regulator, which cost $15 and came off the back with two screws? Pepperidge Farm remembers.

I had beefed up my audio system and the stock alternator could no longer keep up with the amperage demand. I decided to upgrade it myself. Eventually that unit gave out.

I had Valeo in my other car, very common for Bosche to overcharge.

I did see something recently where an aftermarket alternator made by Valeo had the same part number as the Original Toyota part, but in fact had another software part number that made it through an error and not work properly.

Its a total crapshoot anymore. I had an ac delco gold series last maybe 800 miles before it almost caught fire. Yet in the past I've had em last years and 100k+...

I used ACDelco on my Hyundai Santa Fe and only lasted 8 months before almost leaving me stranded. Also noticed that aftermarket alternators lugs my engine especially during high output while original genuine alternators do not.

Mesmo um Valeo novo está caríssimo, pede mais orçamentos.
