I just talked to my Indy-'new' reman Bosch is on the green Goddess and it charges fine. They did tear this one apart and found the inside all corroded. He thinks it is because it has been sitting a lot her it the slat air since I bough the 300D 2.5t. I have noticed that under hood of my Forester and the 240D showing increasing white corrosion spots-esp. on the h aluminum. So I guess more Italian tune-ups on the 240D to heat up the alternator and engine compartment and to force air through to dry it up. Will pick it up today. Thanks to all who replied with good suggestions-I have saved them in case this reman bites the corrosion in a few months. Dwight
Dwight Giles, Jr 1979 240D auto, 250K + miles 1990 300D 2.5t, 130K miles Wickford, RI Bissell Cove Quahog & Auto Salvage Co. - Just had the 3rd remanufactured Bosch alternator go out and need to be replaced on the Green Goddess.. This is the third one in a little over a year. I know Curt Raymond that problem with his 240D and Bosch reman alternators before he sold it. Anyone else have any experience with these? _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com For new parts see official list sponsor: http://www.buymbparts.com/ For used parts email [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
