vs
Alternator OEM Audi or OEM Mazda
I went and got a Mazda one off of Moss bc I was sick of AutoZone remanned ones blowing up. It's plenty nice for stock electrical load
Pros: nice for stock load
Cons: AutoZone ones blowing up
Vehicle:
Mazda
Got some faulty alternators from autozone that were overcharging or undercharging. I just bought an oem reman from mazdaswag, (or any mazda dealership store online). Works fine now.
Pros: Works fine now
Cons: faulty alternators
I had the alternator changed in one of my Phaetons. The overhead light was fluctuating when the engine was running. The problem was fixed when the tech replaced the alternator under warranty.
Pros: problem was fixed
Cons: overhead light fluctuating
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Phaeton
Mine failed at 55k a couple of weeks ago. A couple months prior to this I had complained to the dealership and showed them all the reports of this issue online... At the time they denied any knowledge of the alternator issue.
Cons: car without alternator
Vehicle:
Audi Q8
Mileage: 55000 km
Audi really dropped the ball on building such a poor performing alternator!
Cons: poor performing
Vehicle:
Audi Q7
Part number: 4N0903028P
Just a shitty alternator
Cons: shitty alternator
My 2020 Mazda cx30 has a bad alternator at 47,000 miles. Bought this car about a month and a half ago. Wondering if this is a typical thing for Mazdas alternators to go out fast.
Cons: alternator went out fast
Vehicle:
Mazda
Mileage: 75639 km
Have been burned by aftermarket alternators. I'll spend the money for an OEM every time.
Pros: OEM every time
Cons: burned by aftermarket
Vehicle:
Mazda
I'm surprised Mazda is rated so poorly, I had a Mazda MPV for 8 years and honestly the only problem I had was the driver's side window gear was worn out, and the alternator.
Cons: window gear worn, alternator failed
Vehicle:
Mazda MPV
Mileage: 200000 km
