Mk4 V6 Alternator problems?


Recommended Posts

Driving home the other day and had the 'Alternator Workshop' Sign come up on the trip computer along with the battery light.

Tested the battery when i got home and got 14.4v when the car was running so all looked good.

Drove to work this morning and and the light cam back and now the reading accross the battery is only 11.1v when running so would assume my alternator is at fault.

Does anyone no if all alternators between Mk4 R32 and V6 4motion are interchangable. Cant get to the part no. as its hidden away but can see its a 90amp alternator. Can i swap this to a 120amp alternator just by simply changing the alternator.

Help greatly appreciated.
