WTD - Alternator
Bizarre - November 24th, 2009 at 04:55 PM

my alternator is playing up - so i need a new one.
It is an internal regulator type one

Daily driver so dont really have the oportunity to pull it out and rebuild
Could - but a hassle

Anyway my options are
1) buy a good 2nd hand Bosh one
2) buy a dead Bosh one and get it rebuilt
3) buy a new chinese one and get new bearings put in it

So - can any one help me with 1 or 2??

I am in Abbotsford Sydney

Thanks

Barry
