Alternator OEM Audi or Denso
With Toyota we normally will get reman denso alternators. Napa has the best stock in my area of the denso alternators
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
I just did mine last week with Denso remanufactured , snapped the bolt and had to replaced the pulley tensioner too ????
I hate buying reman. Every time I do, I opt for the reman OE part (in this case, it would be Denso) but they always fail early.
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.
