alternator is f*****  :lol:  :lol:
all he needs is to replace the alternator
but if he carrys on running it on the road it could set on fire  :roll:
he have remove the belt if he wants to carry on driving or just cutting the belt of is quicker, but it is dark outside, so best left until daylight

Alternator is completely different...

How do I know - because I sold a 90 Td one to a bloke at work with a 200Tdi Discovery!!   And now have it back as it doesn't fit  :wink:  :roll:
