Worked fine for me. Insert

mini. Screwed the screws, the battery stopped burning and everything works AND MUCH CHEAPER than the local ones. Now the test of time.

Pros
  • weight
Cons
  • medium

Exactly what I needed.

Worked as intended and solved my problem. Difficult to install but not because of the generator. Because of the car model. Since everything went smoothly, hence the 5 stars.

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Unreliable

CHECK BEFORE INSTALLATION

Defective at first. The second was functional. It was definitely a hassle to send the car back and wait another 2 days for the repair. However, I am grateful that a replacement was ordered and delivered quickly.

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Minus present

Best part for starters and alternators

This is a great OEM replacement part. My other alternator that I bought from Mini failed after only 18 months and the cost of this alternator was almost $800. This alternator has been running for almost a year now and if it fails I can replace it 6 more times for almost the same price as Mini.

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Faulty

) The product is exactly as advertised, finally! And they even agreed to help me, but it was just rubbish in

I finally got the right product (I have bigger eyes than my belly and I saw the large version for sale at the Revain warehouse and they sent me the large version but unfortunately it didn't fit - I wanted 125A but I could only use OE ) hundred amp version)

Pros
  • Best in their niche
Cons
  • The list will be long.

Cheap because of the alternators

Installed and everything worked great so I went to flush the radiator and after 30 minutes of running the battery light came on. I removed the alternator and tested it at my local parts store and it turned out to be bad with zero amp output. It was a lot of work never getting the car out of the driveway! I would ditch that junk and look for OEM parts. The cost is more expensive, but much more reliable!

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Expensive

Opening a connector. Please make sure it is big enough for another port before installation.

I don't think they tested the generator before packing it. The metal cover around the connection hole does not meet the specifications. The hole is small and out of shape. The socket does not fit. I found out after installing the generator. I had to take another picture to understand why the connector didn't fit. I used a flat head screwdriver to bend the metal to enlarge the hole. What a problem. When I have everything back I hope it works.

Pros
  • Datura πŸ”₯
Cons
  • Almost never
