Guys, Just swapped the alternator in a Friends 9000 Anni and thought I'd give you the 'how to'. Most manuals suggest taking out the O/S wheel arch liner and taking out through the gap thus proferred. Since the fastenings are usually rusted solid around the lower edges, you can spent as much...

Picking up this old thread again. My wife had the car today and called me as the battery lamp came on when she started the car. I told her to drive home anyway (1 hour drive) and all went ok. Later I went out and checked and the lamp did not come on again. But checking the voltage when car was...

I have a 2000 Aero with a bad alternator. When looking at replacements, they show replacements for '99-'00 as one part number. They also show 2001 - 2006 140A alternator as another part number. Is there any way to make the later alternator fit? Has anyone made the swap? To make it more...

Hello, I have a 1996 900 my g/f mother wants me to replace the alternator on. I can tell it's gonna be a pretty big job. But, the only real question I have is about this plastic piece on the alternator the guy at the auto parts store called a hose. The one on the car does have this and I was...

Hey guys, i've noticed over thr past few days that my car has been getting slower and slower in regards to start up (usual symptoms of a tired battery). Yesterday it failed to start so i had to jump it, on the drive back home the battery light came up along with all the others (ABS, Stability...

So, what a day! It started yesterday actually when the old smokey diesel battlewagon started to rev just over 1,000rpm in idle and wouldn't settle down regardless of how long I left her. Car wasn't reaching temp no matter how hard I tried, even travelling at 3,000rpm for quite some time I...

So I need to replace the alternator in my 2006 aero and WIS call for removing the intermediate driveshaft to gain access to the alternator. Now I don't have the brass punch needed to "punch" the shaft out and I don't really know if I'll be able to put it back in (any tips on that?) so I'm...
