Alternator OEM Audi or Duralast
I'm selling a GM alternator, mount, pulley, and plug. It's the Duralast Gold Delco 12 SI 94amp, just warrantied it. Hasn't been on a vehicle.
I just purchased a 180amp Duralast New for my X about 2 months ago. The Duralast has done me well so far.
Pros: done me well
Autozone one here. 3 years deep going strong
Pros: going strong
Vehicle:
Acura RSX
Part number: DLG13966
The only good thing about buying a duralast is it'll be the last alternator that you have to *PAY* for. But it def will *NOT* be the last alternator you install in the truck. Lol
Pros: last alternator you pay
Cons: frequent alternator install
I took the alternator apart as well, but it's quite worn and a new one does not cost a fortune, so it's not worth it to refurb it.
Pros: new one affordable
Cons: quite worn
Vehicle:
Audi 80
Duralast..... if you want to get really good at changing them.
Cons: changing them
I went through 5 of those Durlast gold alternators (supposedly the best version of autozone's stuff) in 2 years before I had enough and bought a the Denso.
Pros: unlimited warranty
Cons: frequent replacements needed
Audi really dropped the ball on building such a poor performing alternator!
Cons: poor performing
Vehicle:
Audi Q7
Part number: 4N0903028P
I have a 2007 Chevy suburban and the altenator died so went to Autozone and purchased a new duralast 220.00. This worked for a few days and the battery died again. Checked voltage and only had 9 volts coming from altenator. Took back the altenator for them to bench test and they did not have the proper connections. Gave me another altenator installed worked great for 2 days. This new altenator was also not working and was given a third altenator.
Cons: worked few days, low voltage, multiple failures
Vehicle:
Chevrolet Suburban
Duralast 11120 (if that's what is on the invoice) doesn't have a lot of great reviews...
Pros: null
Cons: not great reviews
Part number: 11120
