Alternator Denso or OEM Volkswagen
Denso is reputable and quality I doubt you'd run into any issues
I got a denso alternator at Napa for $375-ish. I was a happy pappy
It was a brand new denso and no leaks
I did the alternator recently on my 2013. The price of the part was about the same.
Mechanic put in a different kind, and I spent all last summer with dead batteries. After a lot of troubleshooting, and thinking there was a parasitic draw, we found the alternator was bad. Replaced w/ Denso, and no problems since.
I replaced my odysseys alternator with a denso and it's been great i also think denso was the oem part anyway.
For anyone looking for a drop in upgrade, I used a 105 amp for a Suzuki. Made by Denso. No harness needed, plugs right in. Going strong for a couple years now in my 3rd gen.
I’d recommend DENSO reman as they make a bunch of OEM stuff for our cars. Recently put a denso in my car after I got the pure energy brand on rock auto that failed.
I went through five alternators last year on my personal car. All five had different separate failures and all failed within a total of four months combined.
Broke down and had a mobile mechanic install a no-name Advanced Auto Parts type branded remanufactured one. Ended up failing in 3 months.\n\nHad my trusted mechanic install a Denso remanufactured and have had no issues since.
