geordiedubber 0 Posted April 25, 2005 Just a quick question, My alterator needs replacing and ecp only list a bosch 120 amp for the raddo vr at £145 :shock:, The one I have is only a 70 amp. But they list 3 or 4 for the golf vr 70, 90, and 120, Surely the golf and rado alts are the same ??? If they are I could just buy a 70 amp and it should be fine yeah? Anyone ever had any bother with alts from ecp ? thanks for any help. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rs200f40 0 Posted April 25, 2005 Do you know what's wrong with the one you have? As long as the windings are ok it will cost a lot less than that to replace the bearings and brushes if that's all that's needed. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
geordiedubber 0 Posted April 25, 2005 Took it to a local place and they said the diode was knackered and would cost the same as a recon one from them £90.. I think a recon one from ecp might be better quality. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
