How do you replace the alternator of the Audi TT?

Model: Audi Tt 8J, MK 2 - Years 2006-2014
Part: Alternator

In order to replace the alternator of the Audi TT, you need to open the hood so that you can locate the piece in the lower left side compared to the engine block itself: the screws that hold it from the top can be loosened by accessing them from the engine compartment. Subsequently, you can access the bottom part of the engine compartment, loosening the screws and also disconnecting all the appropriate connectors. At this point, you will be able to free the alternator from the serpentine belt, inserting the new replacement piece and securing it properly, verifying that it works.
