If those are your only options you're gonna go with, Remy or ACDELCO. Keep in mind the ACDELCO is not made by ACDELCO and is just rebranded. But has a warranty and decent support.
I always get AC Delco from RockAuto... never had one bad out of the box... Can't really speak to any other brands.
Drove it for a day and the alternator crapped out. Installed a new one asap.
The alternator was dead (as expected), and was replaced with a used one that I sourced locally from junkyard.
I\u2019ve had an ac delco alternator from rock auto in my Honda Fit for 7 years now.
Mine has 69K miles. I've owned it for 4 years. Replaced the alternator and MAF sensor after failures. Keyless entry works only sporadically on the driver's door (lock switch already replaced - latch mechanism needs to be replaced, but for $$$).
When I had mine I had to replace the alternator just outside of warranty.
ACDELCO because if I get another API alternator that’s defective I’m going to kill somebody
even a simple job like changing the alternator is difficult due to where they place it. There's not a ton of space to work on the car in the engine bay.
What bugs me now is that it seems the alt doesn't quite put out. Dash light (at least the one I put under the dash since the one in-dash quit working) won't go out. Goes from bright to dim when the alt should excite.
