I bought my alternator from RockAuto and the Mitsubishi one **IS** the OEM part
Mitsubishi made a heap of OEM parts for other brands. Including alternators for Mazda lol. Also various electronic modules too.
I installed the Valeo alternator that I got from FCP Euro and everything works now. The rebuilt Valeo was $200 less expensive than the Valeo that O’Reilly’s had in their computer but couldn’t order themselves. Also it was immaculate. It was a true rebuild and looked brand new in every way. It was $400.
A brand new Valeo (439317) alternator is $209 on Rockauto and they can be swapped in an hour or two.
I then ordered a Valeo from Bimmerworld which arrived seized. Finally ordered the same Valeo from RockAuto (for less money, too) which has been working great so far.
I tossed in a Mitsubishi 200 amp P71 alternator into an '06 Town Car after the original 6G on it failed. Very good output even at low RPM
I thought Valeo was OEM? Cost me like $250 and was a perfect match.
my car had a 120A valeo, total b!tch to get out even with the front end removed, hard to get the ground wire off, will put the new one on in the AM
It's probably a crap reman one. The aftermarket reman ones that aren't Valeo, Bosch, or Delphi seem to last a year tops before they die.
In the process of replacing the alternator..it was bad.
