Alternator's ****ed. 1.9 CDTI (150).
50k miles, can't believe this has happened.
Vx want £450 to fix it, and it looks like they won't contribute anything towards it.
Anyone got a spare petrol can and a match?

Sorry to hear your news mate, wasn't there a recall on these alternators? mine was changed for a higher current one on a 1.9 CDTi (150) 54 Plate FOC
£120 for a recon unit, any mechanic will replace in less than 15 mins.
Does it affect the 120 CDTi's ?
Just had a call back from Vauxhall, they won't pay a thing.
I asked about the recall, and they said no - nothing on this one (January 2005 on a 54 plate).
How can I check if there is definitely an alternator recall for my car?
£450 is taking the proverbial. I think I paid £120 for an exchange unit for my Mk4 diesel Astra. The new alternator was probably better than new, they did a really good job with the recon.
Here is the thread about the recall m8,if its any use to you.......
