It was in fact a Duralast dud! One more example of a “new” alternator being broken out of the box.
Cons: dud, broken out of box
Vehicle:
Hyundai Elantra
I had a new remanufactured duralast alternator as well that I thought was defective but I kept following the power cable off the alternator and found the fusible link.
Cons: defective
I'm selling a GM alternator, mount, pulley, and plug. It's the Duralast Gold Delco 12 SI 94amp, just warrantied it. Hasn't been on a vehicle.
I just purchased a 180amp Duralast New for my X about 2 months ago. The Duralast has done me well so far.
Pros: done me well
Autozone one here. 3 years deep going strong
Pros: going strong
Vehicle:
Acura RSX
Part number: DLG13966
The only good thing about buying a duralast is it'll be the last alternator that you have to *PAY* for. But it def will *NOT* be the last alternator you install in the truck. Lol
Pros: last alternator you pay
Cons: frequent alternator install
Replaced the 2017 ACDelco alt with a Duralast Gold 160 Amp. Life time warranty. For 200 bucks at Auto zone. Hope this is the last one I buy.
Pros: lifetime warranty
When I lived in walking distance of a 24-hour AutoZone, there seemed to be more people waiting in line to get their lifetime-warranted DuraLast alternators replaced than for battery replacements.
And while I dont recall Hyundai being one of them, there are certain make/models that need an OEM alternator or they just wont work right (i.e Duralast Alternator in a BMW X5=bad idea)
Cons: bad idea
Vehicle:
BMW X5
