Note, one from a 3.0 or 2.5 would also fit  :y

And the regulator is a darn sight cheaper if/when needed

PM recieved and replied to. :y
Might be best to fit a new regulator if thats what the problem is,otherwise I can supply an alternator if you want/need one. :y

thanks for your replies.. would be nice if it was a replacement part for my existing unit.. just got a quote for a new part from my local garage- 120amp £120  or 140 amp £99.55... i think mine is a 120  but either way seems a reasonable price for new..

Basically had the unit tested-  apparently it should offer14 volts... during reving the engine it onkly registered 11 volts  no fluctuation.

Will a new regulator fix that ?  If so, any idea how much they cost ?  :-\

Around the £20 mark. You need the Bosch number off the actual alternator
