OEM Alternators

An alternator is a piece of equipment that is bolted to the engine block. When the engine runs, the alternator is running and is responsible for the production of electricity for the battery and other accessories within the vehicle. However, the alternator is also susceptible to breakdowns over time like anything else - wear and tear can build up on the part. Problems with the alternator might lead to your battery not being charged and thus your vehicle can have problems starting later on. Make sure to take care of it and buy a new one when needed. Some symptoms of a failing alternator might include dim lights, the service engine light coming on, a dead battery, other electrical issues, or a stalling engine. Some alternators might even make a grinding noise if a bearing is worn out inside the system. Technically, you can drive your car without an alternator, but you will only be on the road until your battery goes dead because your it would be supplying all the power to your electrical system instead of your alternator. For your vehicle, only original parts from the manufacturer will do, and you can buy them here at Autohaus Parts Delivered by browsing below.
