WARNING!
 
Possible fluid spills from vehicle systems during repairs or maintenance.
Risk of thermal incidents, slip hazards, corrosion of electrical components, failure of electrical or mechanical components or unwanted odours.
Always limit fluid spills and fully clean the spilled fluid after repairs or maintenance.
 

Remove alternator
1.   
Remove oil pump cover.
 

 
Care Point:
Tape up the alternator cable end once removed.

 
2.   
Remove nut (1). (M8) 10 Nm
 
3.   
Detach alternator cable (2).
 

4.   
Disconnect electrical connector (3).
 

5.   
Remove bolt (4). (M6x16) 10 Nm
 
 
Care Point:
Use a suitable container to catch the excess oil.

 
6.   
Detach oil return pipe (5).
 

7.   
Remove bolt (6). (M6x16) 6 Nm
 
8.   
Detach coolant pipe (7).
 

9.   
Remove bolts (8). (M8x90) 25 Nm
 
10.  
Remove spacers (10).
 
11.  
Move alternator in direction (A)
 
12.  
Remove alternator coupling (9).
 

13.  
Remove bolts (11). (M6x25) 10 Nm
 
14.  
Remove bracket (12).
 
15.  
Remove alternator.
 


Install alternator
 
Care Point:
Coupling is colour coded on the outer circumference. The alternator coupling colour code is blue.
Do not squeeze / deform the shape of the coupling prior to fitment. Care must be taken when handling and fitting the coupling. Deformation can cause damage to the internal structure and lead to premature part failure.
Make sure that the right coupling is being fitted to the correct vehicle system. The internal spline may be the same but the couplings are not interchangeable.
Renew coupling if the part has become damaged or deformed.

 
1.  
Check alternator coupling (13) for any signs of damage or excessive wear, and replace if necessary.
 
2.  
Install components in reverse order.
