bowline5 Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 I have a 2002 A4 B6 with the 2.4l V6 engine, code BDV. The alternator bearing is making a lot of noise, do I need to take the whole front off to get in and replace the unit or can it be done from below?

Magnet Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 Hello Derek, Sorry, don’t know about it’s removal, but someone may be along to offer advice. Are you going to replace the alternator with a Euro Car Parts or similar best offer one? If so, I wouldn’t, in preference to getting a new bearing put into yours. Kind regards, Gareth.

bowline5 Posted March 10, 2022 Author Share Posted March 10, 2022 Thanks Gareth I was going to buy a Lucas unit from ECP until they messed around with the website price, I've located a remanufactured Bosch at a much better price. It's unfortunate that ECP have the biggest range locally to me, they're OK for consumables but I try to avoid them for anything else.
