Alternator

[Trevor loves holden.]

Wish I'd seen this before I bought a new one. Auto 8

Well.. I guess if it screws up, I've got a 5yr warranty

Is it their brand or Bosch, if their brand I can only wish you luck mine lasted about 6 months before the bearings destroyed the Alternator.

I just bought a bosch one from them posted on Monday still not arrived on Friday due to delays what was their packaging like? did they have it wrapped in bubble wrap or just in box now I'm worried it'll get damaged in post just about all auto parts I buy online come poorly packaged.

Brand says Auto 8
But as long as it lasts long enough to get it registered, I guess that's ok... If it mucked up, Ohhhh they'll know about it

Yeah, mine was meant to be here already. But it's sitting in Melbourne with an estimated date between 1-6 may
As long as it arrives in working order haha..
Had been hoping to have my parts here and in by yesterday (birthday). Oh well.. Not much we can do

I know you’ve purchased a replacement now, but in case you were at all second guessing yourself, here’s my story of my rapid descent into alternator failure, including photos. Enjoy. https://forums.justcommodores.com.au/threads/you-know-your-alternator-is-toast-when.276025/

I will never go to Tony's Auto wreckers in Perth there adds are ridiculouse claiming they can match a part just by someone who doesn't know what there doing discribing it and the amount of advertising they do leads me to believe they are expensive also

I bought mine on 20th April. Only arrived yesterday. After 2 complaints lodged. It sat at Welshpool sorting centre for 10days. Arrived in a tattered box, no bubblewrap and brown paper to as packaging... So yeah, not impressed..
