Alternator OEM Toyota or Denso
I got toyota denso brand from rockauto site for $255 with shipping included
Denso reman all the way. You get what you pay for here.
The family line just means it was made by Denso originally. Denso reman in a Denso or Honda box only for me.
Make sure you’re getting a Denso alternator installed. The aftermarket ones are built shitty and will probably crap out on you again.
rebuilt my oem denso to avoid buying those other brands, they generally are very hit or miss and dont have a good warranty to back them up. denso all the way, i would buy one for my car if they were still available.
The Denso will last the longest, but I have a habit of buying the local store brand only because they give you a no-questions-asked lifetime warranty.
I would go OEM or get a Denso from Rockauto since Honda's alternator is kind of sensitive.
I just replaced the alternator on my 09, it cost me $190 for the part (Denso refurb - shipped, including taxes) from Rockauto.
I just went through a headache replacing my 3rd alternator in 2 years. I took it to the shop and they put an oem alternator in it and told me not to buy the parts store alternators. It's fine if you don't mind pulling them out to replace every year or so.
When my alternator went out I got an aftermarket that failed within the week. Afterwards I was told that the element alternator is in a spot that gets more heat than a normal car so it needs a higher temp solder. I got the denso oem after and it’s still good after 5 years
