Audi Tt - Video tutorial

Model: Audi Tt MK 1, 8N - Years 1998-2006
Part: Alternator
Operation: How to replace the car alternator

The alternator is one of the most important parts of a vehicle's electrical system. It must always be perfectly efficient, as its malfunction could create serious problems for the battery. The guide shows you how to change it. Park the vehicle on a level and safe place, turn off the engine and proceed by disconnecting the battery cable corresponding to the negative pole, in order to avoid the accidental production of sparks. At this point, we identify the alternator and lose a few minutes to memorize the position with respect to the other parts. We immediately see a coil that passes on the pulley to connect to the alternator. We choose the key of the correct size and remove the belt that locks it to the motor body. It will then be enough to unscrew all the screws that secure the alternator.
