Spent a day scratching my arms and skinning my knuckles, and getting more and more frustrated, No matter what I tried, the alternator would not come out, Then I came across this video_pure genius. Followed step by step and within half an hour the job was done, and the car back on the road_cannot thank you enough
great video. managed to get the alternator out without removing the engine mounting. I just had to remove the brackets supporting the alternator at the bottom.
Great idea and video, worked well for me even with mine being the air on model……. Suzuki refused to quote, Bosch service said 500 euro at a starting point, using this video cost me 99euro and an hour with a mate! Only thing I did different was used an engine hoist. Cheers buddy!
This way doesn't work, i jacked up the motor but the air filter intake hits the top and the clearance you get until then is not enuf to get the alt. out. The only way i can tell is to remove the CV shaft, damn!

The windshield is okay from the start of your video. What happened after?
Wrecking yard car. From memory me and my mates had some fun. Thx
This video was good timing
Thankz for great video. Whitch tool will I need for this job?
We tell you through the video :) Thanks
Merci de france 👍👍👍
That allen bolt i simply cannot get out. even with an impact gun and rust remover spray, nothing.
Hit it with a hammer??? Shock the thread
I walked the altenator to the next side of the engine bay by the transmission. I just moved the wiring harness and bracket out of the way.
I still believe with a car jack my way is easier. Thanks
thank you very helpful
My pleasure
You dont have to down engine for removing altaternater you should have to revemove engine crank pully

Let the jack back down opens it up more worked perfectly today

Not sure why you remove the engine mount my friend, that was not the easy by far.
Yes it is. Top engine mount is easy to remove and re install
