I would get a better alternator. Denso (reman or new is fine) seems to be the only one that can take the high electrical demand of the Odyssey.
Pros: high electrical demand
Vehicle:
Honda Odyssey
Denso alternators are the best. Denso makes great products. I do a lot of side work on Hondas and I am so thankful Denso offers their stuff outside of the dealership. I replace alternators, a/c compressors, oxygen sensors, etc all the time and I choose Denso bc it's basically the same exact part you receive in a Honda box but for half the price.
Pros: best alternators, great products
Vehicle:
Honda
Parts store house brand parts are notoriously poor quality when it comes to electronic parts such as sensors, starters, alternators, etc.
Cons: poor quality, electronic parts
I suggest either getting your OEM DENSO alternator rebuilt at a shop (costs like $60?) or picking up a low mileage used DENSO alternator from a junk yard (or eBay). The Amazon new ones are probably junk and can cause trouble down the line.
Pros: rebuilt OEM alternator
Cons: Amazon new ones junk
If the alternator is OEM, replace it, because is close to the exhaust manifold, it will fail sooner than later.
Pros: engineered through
Cons: weakness for heat
If you are replacing the alternator, strongly recommend using only Honda dealer sold remanufactured alternators (probably Denso) or an aftermarket Denso brand remanufactured alternator. Lots of problems reported with other brands.
Pros: Honda or Denso recommended
Cons: problems with other brands
Vehicle:
Honda Odyssey
If you’re gonna go through the effort of replacing the alternator, do NOT get cheap shit. Get a new/remanufactured Denso alternator.
Pros: new/remanufactured quality
Cons: avoid cheap alternatives
Vehicle:
Suzuki SX4
Denso alternator is my go to choice for that vehicle.
Pros: reliable choice
For my personal vehicles, I replace alternators at 100K with Remy or Denso new alternators and have never had an issue and I save a lot of money by waiting a couple of days.
Pros: never had an issue
Mileage: 100000 km
