Hi All,
I have a noisy alternator bearing. Can this bearing be replaced or do you have to change the whole unit. The alternator still works fine its just a bit noisy. Any information will be great thanx.  |

if it is the alternator bearings,easiest way to check is take belt off and spin it and listen.unless your compitent in mechanical work it is far easier to just order a new change over alternator because i could bet my left door that the bushings,brushes and stator would need to replaced too.
