Hi All,
If you ever want to replace or need to replace the alternator in the 1.6HDi (2007) M59 model, I did a not so short video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L5dQ9kILecM
To be honest it is a bit of a nightmare, everything is tight as hell and one needs to buy a short stubby 8mm hex socket in order to undo the two alternator pulleys. My old alternator was kind of intermittently working, it was producing nothing and the battery was ~12.6V when it was running.
The really crucial thing is when putting the new alternator in to put the two bolts on an angle, otherwise it does not want to go at all. I spent a whole day trying to put it in straight, but it just did not want to go in.
Now it is working properly and charging with a new Bosch 150A replacement to ~14.4-5V.
Any questions, let me know, hope you find it useful. Yeah, a bit of an old model so very few people are driving those 1.6HDis.
