Re: What's the best place for an alternator? 700 90

posted by  someone claiming to be Brian Oliver on  Tue Feb 13 03:16 CST 2001 [RELATED]

If your alternaotor is a Bosch, the brush/regulator unit should be about 50-70 bucks at a Bosch place (don't know about the Volvo dealer) and changes out in two minutes! You need a short "slot" screwdriver to make the job easy, but it can be done with a regular length one. Not even any wires to disconnect! I wish our 940 had the Bosch our 740 had.

To check the bearings, remove the drive belt and brush assembly and give it a spin. Should be smoothe and quiet.
