Then I get a quote from my friend's shop for assemble and rebuild the alternator, it's no more than $200. All you gotta worry is find a reputable and realiable shop. Also, with the dealership, a brand new alternator is $690 + labour. Really a rip off, I'm not sure about the price in US, but Canada is really ridiculous. |

What I think is that they mainly follow the book work, when the TSB mention this, they will just fix that. They don't really stay in out point of view, we just wanna use the least $ to get the work done, and a working car. And of couse, changing every parts with brand new will definietly solve the problems. |

There one Toyota dealership in Montreal that will rebuilt the original alternator for you with original Toyota parts. (Toyota Gabriel) But i takes 3 weeks and cost 350$ plus taxes. Also you get one year warranty. If your under the 80000km it will expire then or if your took the extended warranty it will expire at the km your chose in the package. Still cheaper at the scrap yard.
