Title: Alternator for Fiats
Post by: david3103 on January 05, 2015, 02:10:35 PM
My daughter has a Fiat Idea, 2003 Eleganza 1.4 with a failed alternator.

The Idea is pretty rare and a lot of the parts appear to be model specific. That makes finding a cheap salvage alternator really hard and expensive.

Looking around, some of the ads I have found suggest that this may be a part that could also be used on some Puntos and other makes.

Anyone got any thoughts on this? I found an ebay seller for new 'SB254 70 amp' alternators that seem to also be in a variety of other small Fiats.

Punto salvaged item as cheap as £30, Idea ones at least £100 more btw

Can you get the original reconditioned Dave?
