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.
Did my own alternator, Denso 300.00. Took about an hour.
Alternators do like to go out on ISs. Burning smell and whining is the telltale signs of it going out.
Denso. Expensive but, my last one lasted 25 years lol.
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.
The refurbished Duralast alternator has worked fine for a few months but the last month I started to hear belt noise and assumed it was related to the alternator. The last couple of weeks I would smell a new unknown burnt smell that smoked like either rubber or electronics which has led me to wonder if the battery/alternator fuses have gone out.
I got a alternator from AutoZone( duralast pos) and a new battery , same thing, car started with new battery ,voltage at the battery was around 12.5 and voltage directly on the alternator was the same exact voltage as the battery which showed the alternator still wasn\u2019t charging I took that alternator out got my money back and went to a reputable alternator and starter shop around my area and got a quality rebuilt one. They tested the alternator before they gave it to me and confirmed it was in working order. I installed it and still the alternator is not charging the battery , i checked voltage directly at the new alternator and still got the same voltage as the battry while the engine was running , so its still not charging the battery or producing power
