CDTI Valeo Alternator Conundrum 115/120amp?
I purchased a Valeo alternator advertised as 120 amp.
It came in a MG Rover box with a label 1x YLE000260. The label on the alternator body is MG Rover YLE000260E, this overlaid another label A13V1234MG 31/1/2007. The regulator has three pins, part number 2547164. My question is, What is the AMP rating of this alternator? |

Interesting bit of academic interest there.
Of course it will make no difference to the car. Will these two pictures below help ??? |

I thought this would appeal to you! I cannot determine what the output is, it seems to be a hybrid of parts and part numbers. Does the 3 pin regulator rule out 120 amps?

Your alternator is the earlier MG part number YLE102500. It is 115A and was superseded by YLE000260 which is 120A. It would appear that a sticker has been placed over the original with the later MGR part number. The two are compatible so for all practical purposes it will make no difference. As it is a genuine Valeo, I would prefer it to the Chinese 120A equivalents being sold for around £100. |

COLVERT - your resolution for next year needs to be to answer the question asked. :snowball1: |
Many thanks, my original alternator was a 2004 two pin Valeo 120 amps YLE000260. I can live with the loss of five amps.
Again thanks to both of you, I am sure Colvert will add further information. |
