Dave if you could find that site which sells those components that would be great, as if and when mine goes i will certainly repair it if possible.Perhaps it could be put in the How To Site here.

Just a quick update to say the car is now fixed. Thanks for the pointers, the guy from Rodley motors replaced the faulty alternator & the belt at the same time, my brother was very happy with the service from them.
I did think about getting it repaired but he was stuck with out the car but we have kept the old alternator & was going to look into getting it reconditioned.
Thanks again to everyone for the advice.

Glad to be of help!Originally Posted by ssizefive
Can I ask what they charged him?
It was just over £300 fitted including the belt.

Ouch................Altenator at RealSteel £130. Belt another £25 or so. £155 in parts.
With £40 / hour it would have taken 3 hours to fit........
Then again.................needs probably must............

So not too bad then, especially when you take into account it was local (ish) and it was unlikely he could have driven the car anywhere else to get it done!
Still expensive given that it should take about 30mins to replace altenator and beltSo not too bad then, especially when you take into account it was local (ish) and it was unlikely he could have driven the car anywhere else to get it done!

Even on a blown car we charge 30 mins, we keep a 260 and SV one in stock.
