Waiting for 3 weeks...... - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #3371 5 posts Started by Bo0st
About 3 weeks ago my alternator decided to quit, and this is around 2 weeks after I installed new fogs....I hope its just coincidence and not that the fogs are what made it burn out......but anyways I've been waiting 3 weeks and the dealership told me it should be in soon. But honestly 3 WEEKS FOR AN ALTERNATOR!! its coming from JAPAN for god sakes!! aAAHHHHH!! WTF!! sorry just stressing >frown.gif> oh yea and I just lowered my car as well so hardly any time to test it out...sigh
good topic


why cant you get an altenator from autozone or something?

edit: if you went to the dealer for an altenator you are getting ripped off. next time go to a local shop and they can fix it the same day.

You are wasting your time and money by going to a dealer. Open up your phone book a look for places that rebuild altenators and starters. I'm not sure about the US, in Toronto I'd get a rebuilt altenator for around 65 buck plus core.
Yeah you guys are right, oh well, live and learn...
I coulda sold you mine, if u asked on the Buy/Sell. Coulda saved u alot.
