Alternator VALEO or OEM Mazda

Cheapest for me was a new Valeo unit from Rockauto. Cheaper than Turner too.

+1 for Valeo. This job wasn\u2019t fun.

I replaced mine with an oem valeo

Uma pesquisa no auto doc, tens alternadores Valeo entre os 230 e os 350.

Yesterday I replaced my 90A B brand alternator (thank you, previous 8 owners) with a Valeo 120 Amp unit. So far seems to be working fine with 14.15V to the battery at idle and with minimal or max power draw.

Id go with whatever fcpeuro recommends. Aka valeo, bosch (which are both oems)

I bought a new Valeo alt cheap because this part was broke. After days os scouring the internet I found two sources, but the would NOT retail the part. They only supply rebuilders in bulk.

HAVE a 2022 CX30 @ 79,000 miles. Alternator went out today

Alternator is my wild guess: Valeo alternators have long sucked, kinda like their starter motors.

The indy shop I used diagnosed it as a bad alternator; I am so lucky ( s a r c a s m ) to have the Valeo (mega $$$$$) unit, they swapped it out a week later.
