Did my own alternator, Denso 300.00. Took about an hour.
Alternators do like to go out on ISs. Burning smell and whining is the telltale signs of it going out.
Had an 04 Euro/Accord for 4 or so years, great car, shocks and springs were too soft so made it floaty on open road so was lowered to decrease body roll with wider rims and it was an absolute pleasure to drive especially with the tiptronic for the twisty stuff. Alternator was all that failed on it.
Had an 06 accord euro, put 80k on it, sold it at 320k.
Only had alternator and starter motor done in that time.
An Accord Euro with the K24 is such a good car. I had one for a couple of years, the alternator died and that's all that went wrong with it. It had done near 300 when l sold it.
Denso. Expensive but, my last one lasted 25 years lol.
DENSO remanufactured is solid.
Get Denso 2104148 that’s what I recently got. Works great!
Defective alternator. Get it exchanged under warranty. Unfortunately, lots of remanufactured alternators from parts stores don't perform up to spec. It would best to get a new or remanufactured from Hyundai or a reliable brand such as Denso.
I've had bad luck with aftermarket alternators. Whether I put them on due to customer request, due to price difference or had them come in with issues. Sometimes not charging while still new, or relatively new. Sometimes the charging light on even though it's charging properly.
