Alternators

Alternators are important engine parts connected to your Volkswagen.They make mechanical energy and transform it into electricity that powers various parts of your car.

Alternator Replacement for VW Made Easy

An alternator is a separate motor that is run by your serpentine belt. When your car is running, your alternator rotor is spun by the belt, which rapidly turns a pair of electromagnets around a coil. The mechanical energy from the rotation is transferred into electricity that charged your car battery while you drive. In most cases, the alternator runs your powered-windows, dash lights, and water pump.

When to Change Your Car's Alternator?

Like most engine parts, there will come a time for a replacement. Your alternator can last up to 100,000 miles before showing signs of wear and tear or even failure. If you think your Volkswagen alternator needs replacement, look for symptoms like:

  • Trouble starting engine
  • Burning smell of rubber or plastic
  • Low battery power dash warning
  • Dimming lights
  • Broken serpentine belt
  • Choose an OEM Volkswagen Alternator for Replacement
