Alternator Denso or VALEO
Alternator replaced last year with OEM Denso, 13.5V when car is running
Actually you must use a Denso, the OEM manufacturer for the Odyssey.* It can be a rebuilt, but should be one rebuilt by Denso. Apparently the real Denso should be available at NAPA.
I\u2019ve been using Denso remans lately because a lot of the cheap remans are junk and a won\u2019t make it a year.
I am not sure what year your odyssey is, but I know you can go to rockauto.com and find the Denso remanufactured alternator that is the best one to get.
All the others tend to go bad within a year or less.
Ordered a denso reman alt for my 08 tsx last year and it fixed charging system issues I kept having with aftermarket alternators:)
I think the Denso alternator is the ONLY remanufactured alternator I will buy. I've been burned too many times trying other remanufactured brands.
But I typically always buy NEW alternators from RockAuto. Sometimes the bearing is bad out of the box so I have to return it and get another. But when I get a quiet one, they seem to work fine. Nice and steady voltage output around 14.3V
Just buy a reman denso
I had Valeo in my other car, very common for Bosche to overcharge.
Get the name brand Denso part and save yourself having to replace it 3 times in a month until you finally get a good one.
Denso only aftermarket will leave you stranded every couple years. I have went through 2 of them. They both gave a very short warnings before they go.
