Review on 💡 ACDelco Gold 335-1306 Alternator: Dependable Power for Efficient Performance by Dave Brummet

Installed on a 2002 Infiniti Qx4 after the brake and battery lights came on. Anyone who has replaced one of these in an Infiniti or Pathfinder knows it can take hours. After reviewing some of the cheaper and remanufactured alternators and finding mixed reviews, I settled on something from AC Delco. It may be a bit more expensive, but it is NOT a job you want to do twice. Also, this is a NEW alternator and the Delco AC brand is more trustworthy. On a positive note, this alternator has a built in nut for the top bolt. One of the biggest problems with the stock alternator is the free floating "L" nut that attaches to the back of the top bolt. (It will fall off when you remove the alternator.) When installing the top screw, it can be difficult to hook in as there isn't much room for your fingers. This generator has the nut built in, so you won't have any trouble. The only downside I noticed was that the back cover is not identical to the original. I've never found a way to add a single (non-critical) strap to the back without making minor modifications. Putting on the wiring harness is a problem even with the right alternator. In my case I just disabled it. The sole purpose seems to be to secure the wiring harness and it is secure enough without being attached to the alternator. Otherwise it seems to be working fine so far. The brake and battery lights have gone out and the alternator is now charging the battery.
