Hi Guys,

 

Looking to fit a new alternator on the VX, a little noise from the alternator is telling me that perhaps the bearings are getting near the end of their life.

 

Elise parts have one on offer: https://www.elisepar...220-alternator/

 

anybody had any experience of these or could suggest a quality replacement supplier, Vauxhall's a rip off at £224 exchange.

 

Cheers

 

Dave

Hi Chris,
Thanks for doing that. Would it be an outright purchase or exchange?

mines a bit like that as well, but it could croak just the same at the wrong moment!

you have the option. 

you pay full price and after receiving the old unit back you get a refund.
