Re: japanese alternator 900 1994

Maybe that's why there is nothing in the FAQ about them! I may take apart the one in my POS Toyota just to learn my way around inside an ND, and so be prepared for the day the one in the Volvo (165,000 km) acts up.

The Bosch in our '87 740 went 270,000 km with just a new brush/diode unit, and its life was ended early by a crash. Maybe you have an alignment or belt tension problem? Also, the alternator in the NA car is high on the left where it is very easy to reach and maybe runs cooler than the one in the turbo car.
