Thanks for the link that looks helpful. Just wondering, I have a bit of oil around my alternator and quite a bit on the idler pulley for some reason. Is this cause for worry? The engine runs perfectly fine but I do not want to take any chances...

All the tricks are listed in the thread below.
You can disconnect the battery cable in the trunk if you wish. I didn't.

PS: Stick to Valeo or Bosch, brand-new if you can. Rebuilt alternators are hit and miss these days!!! |
