Helloo all.
I have loads of issues with finding the alternator for my S40 T4. Now volvo and every part company in the UK give me this part number for my 1999 S40 1.9 T4 8251639 120. Also at the local Volvo dealers they show me on their screen pictures of that alternator and so on. Here is the issue. That alternator will not fit my car, it has a completely different fitting.
After 2 alternators later we have sort of solved it. The Alternator currently on my car ( from new) is a 120amp alternator that fits a Volvo 960 2.3 not a S40 1.9 T4. Every listing for an alternator for my car does not show that one.
Any one else have something like this?
It is extremenly frustrating as I have a 180 amp alternator brand new that I cannot use The company that supplied it went by Volvo's computer which lists a completely different alternator that is on my car.
Anything I can do?
I will try and post pics up later
