Hello guys,
This morning my car (Emotion 1.9 16v 150) started very hard and only after 20 tries and 50 min of battery charge. After start battery light came on, measured the voltage, it was 13.2V, but after 20 min or so my dash was like a Christmas tree and sterring died. Measured voltage again 11.8V. I must admit, all these weeks i was reading about your alternator problems and thought i`m a lucky guy lol, but it seems i was wrong. So now i was checking the websites and found a good price for ELSTOCK 120 alternator, its about 130 Euro. Never heard about Elstock until now, also searched their website and it looks good, can`t find a review about them tho. As a comparison, Denso is two times more expensive. Did anyone tried to repair the old one ?
