I recently had to replace the power steering pump on my Berlingo van (with good advice from this forum). It appeared that quite a lot of fluid had leaked onto the alternator when the old pump failed. With hindsight I should have got a replacement alternator at the same time but didnt doh!
Here I am a couple of weeks later and the alternator has finally conked out. I would appreciate it if anyone could tell me if there is an easy way to swap the alternators or do I have to take the p/s pump off to get to it? Apologies in advance as I expect this topic will have been dealt with on this forum elsewhere before.
Van is 2006 2 litre HDi
PS. Replacement alternator is on its way - delivered for £40 with 3 month warranty from a breakers.
