Just be careful. I had a headache with my alternator because it was the wrong one. All that was different was where the wires bolt on. Would not charge at all

The top one at the moment as I cant even see the bottom one.

Does anyone know what part number my Bosch alternator is for a 1.9 diesel P reg not HDI?

Thanks
