Cup alternator?

[DomP182]

I'm looking for some clarification on this alternator, is it a cup version as the terminals foul the ac. hoses. If it is does anyone want a swap?

The label should say ampage, 110 is standard think cup is 75 maybe. Plus standard is offset mounting points, cup is top and bottom

I cant make out the label its worn off, on my old one the terminals are rotated 180° from the position in this photo

A Cup one won't fit the AC mounting positions.

There's loads of alternators about that have that connection on the wrong way...

Cup Alternator is 75A

Part numbers are and the bottom is an exchange item.

It fits the bottom mount but not the top mount by a out 5mm

What about non cup as that's what I need

I'm guessing you're fitting a Valeo unit?

As that's about the only one that's worth fitting unless you want to do it again in a week's time 😂

 

[DomP182]

Yeah I'll use a valeo. I might try and find a good used one, £182 is more than I'd like to spend right now

 

[DomP182]

Looking at it today I think it may be neither a cup or non cup alternator, I'll get some photos up for clarification

A13VL195 8200193100 comes up as a kangoo 110a alternator, is this of any use in th 1*2 world?

First one is non exchange

Second one is exchange.

This is taken from a Clio 182 Trophy running A/C and it’s 110amp

This is the OE part number for a 182 110amp alternator.

I have put part numbers above and both are Valeo and this one was taken off my car.

So is there a difference between 182 and 172 alternators?

I'm confused now, the main problem with the one I have is the power terminal is right up against the ac hose and the top mounting is over to the left by about 5mm. 'Family duties' have taken me away from playing with it for today😪

This is the part Number on my receipt of the one I bought in March for a 172.

Cheapest place to get a 110a alternator?

 

[botfch]

Isn't that one pictured just fitted the wrong way round?

May not be the cheapest but you will know it will fit. Also if you can return your old one you get £20 back. You could also try your local dealer and see if he will price match, that’s what I did.

In my flamer? Nope correct way with the two mounting lugs at the bottom, one at top

Yeah sorry I forgot the cup was fitted back to front.
I wonder if it’s possible to flip round the regulator so you can get the plugs in.

 

[DomP182]

I have wondered if I could play around with the terminals except the top mounting point isnt quite right, it pulls on the bracket so either way it's a no go
