Re: alternator problems once again

When an alternator is gone, I learned this from personal experience it's better to replace the whole unit with a reman Denso unit. Brand new aftermarket MAY be ok, I dunno. I just never had any experience with them so I can not offer you my opinion. Believe me, when it comes to parts GO with Toyota Reman parts you just can't go wrong.

The reason I would suggest you buy a whole new Reman Denso Alternator because the voltage regulator can be a culprit if you just rebuilt it yourself. When you buy a new reman Denso alternator, the voltage regulator has been reconditioned by Denso so the unit will deliver the electric current the way it should.

Folks, sometimes we are turned down by the cost of Toyota Genuine parts, thus many people go with the cheaper aftermarket alternatives because they are more appealing. Some of the are not bad. Like brake rotors and whatnots, but when it comes to oil filter, starter, t-stat, gasket, alternator, etc...get the real mc coy!  You won't regret it. NO I don't work for Toyota and NO I am not a spokesperson for Denso Corp either. I just learned some lessons in the past the hard way with those darn cheap aftermarket junks and here I am passing my personal experience with you folks so you all won't have to go thru what I have gone thru. People helping people, that's what makes life worth living. If money is really tight, well cut down a little bit on beer. Spend the extra $$ on those genuine Toyota parts. YOu won't regret it!
