This 65 Amp alternator is designed specifically for Volkswagen Type 25/T3 buses fitted with diesel engines, providing a strong and reliable power supply to support all essential electrical systems. Diesel models place higher demand on the charging system due to glow plugs, heater fans, lighting, and auxiliary accessories, making a dependable alternator vital for everyday usability. With a 65-amp output, this unit ensures consistent battery charging and stable voltage delivery even during heavy electrical load, helping maintain smooth running and dependable starting performance.
The alternator is equipped with both bolt-on and W-connector terminal types on the rear, matching the common connection styles used across VW diesel models of the period. It is essential to check your existing unit before ordering to ensure outright compatibility. Built as a direct replacement for factory-fitted diesel alternators, it installs easily with standard brackets and belts, making it suitable for routine replacement, restoration work or electrical upgrades.
This unit fits a wide range of Volkswagen diesel vehicles including T25/T3 buses, early Golf models, Caddy Mk1, Scirocco, and Polo variants. Whether you’re maintaining a camper, a commercial bus, or an early diesel VW hatchback, this alternator provides stable charging performance you can rely on.
