The family line just means it was made by Denso originally. Denso reman in a Denso or Honda box only for me.
bosch alternator is better. get a bosch alternator.
Pros: better quality
Rockauto.com shows reman units, both Bosch and Valeo. As far as interchange with Bosch, I dont know, but worked at the dealer and they always asked if it was Bosch or Veleo because it could not be determined by Vin.
Make sure you’re getting a Denso alternator installed. The aftermarket ones are built shitty and will probably crap out on you again.
Pros: reliable, long lasting
Cons: shitty aftermarket ones
I replaced mine with an oem valeo
Pros: oem part
I want to hear an opinion on getting a duralast alternator and popping it in my n52 I have heard very mixed things about these parts some work fine others are trash.
Cons: mixed reviews, some trash
Even brand name remans like Bosch and denso are suspect but generally much less so.
Pros: brand name remans
Cons: suspect quality
November of 2023 I had to replace the alternator. I purchased an aftermarket and had a mechanic friend install it for me. 6 weeks later it started acting up again and left me stranded. The battery tested good, alternator was bad. I returned the alternator and was warranted a second one. Roughly 2 months later, the battery light comes on while I am out of town. I pulled into a local parts store and had it tested. Battery tested fine. Alternator tested bad. The Nissan dealership says it is the alternator. But since I had not used a factory alternator that was the problem. Apparently the aftermarket alternators can not handle the load and are not set up properly.
Pros: aftermarket alternators fail quickly
Cons: cannot handle the load
Vehicle:
Nissan Pathfinder
We have a lady with an infinity that comes in once a year to get her duralast alternator replaced.
Cons: replaced once a year
Vehicle:
Infiniti
