I've looked at the procedure for doing it myself but as it requires working under the vehicle I don't fancy doing it.
My local garage has quoted £400 all in to do the job!
Seems like a lot to me but what does the Forum think?
Car is 2003 Rover CDTi Tourer with BMW 2 litre motor.
I replaced my alternator at the beginning of October. Paid 140 euro for a new one & 90 euro for the labor.

My mechanic did the job from above by removing the power steering pump etc

400 seems a bit too much in my opinion.
