Alternator Denso or AC DELCO

Denso reman all the way. You get what you pay for here.

The family line just means it was made by Denso originally. Denso reman in a Denso or Honda box only for me.

Make sure you’re getting a Denso alternator installed. The aftermarket ones are built shitty and will probably crap out on you again.

rebuilt my oem denso to avoid buying those other brands, they generally are very hit or miss and dont have a good warranty to back them up. denso all the way, i would buy one for my car if they were still available.

The Denso will last the longest, but I have a habit of buying the local store brand only because they give you a no-questions-asked lifetime warranty.

I would go OEM or get a Denso from Rockauto since Honda's alternator is kind of sensitive.

I just replaced the alternator on my 09, it cost me $190 for the part (Denso refurb - shipped, including taxes) from Rockauto.

Denso alternator was like $350 and it took us like 3 hours as total novices and that includes the 3 trips we ended up taking to NAPA.

Defective alternator. Get it exchanged under warranty. Unfortunately, lots of remanufactured alternators from parts stores don't perform up to spec. It would best to get a new or remanufactured from Hyundai or a reliable brand such as Denso.

I've gone through three Denso alternators in the last 4 years! This last one went almost two years before going out.
