It generates between 15.1 and 15.9V on higher revs - far too much I think.
Now I am considering a replacement - does anyone have experience with Denki alternators? I found it at Partsouq. Or which brand / type would you recommend, available in South Africa?

It is for my 99 TB45E.

Best regards,

What is it suppose to be, around 14V?

Yes, 13.7 to 14.3 probably.

Mine is pretty inaccurate.

Compare it to a multimeter sometime.

Good afternoon!
I now got an aftermarket alternator and would line to have my original one refurbished.
I remember someone from this forum offer refurbishment of those - does anyone know who it was?

Thanks!

Thanks, Anthony!

I just realized that the alternator which has been removed from my car also was an aftermarket one with even less amperage than the one I put in.
So I decided to let the old alternator go.

Kind regards,

Florian
