OEX Alternator 12V 180A Valeo Style VXA022

The OEX Alternator VXA022 is a new 12V unit rated at 180A and built in a Valeo style configuration. It suits Valeo applications and uses an internal regulator, with a 6 groove pulley and twin leg alternator mount. Those details matter when matching the alternator to the vehicle, as the mounting style, pulley type and electrical output all need to line up with the original unit.

This alternator is identified with Part No. VXA022 and Pin Code IR201. Key dimensions include 61mm inside mounting legs, 127mm mount centre to centre, an M8x1.25 / 8 pivot hole diameter, and an M8x1.25 / 8 adjusting hole diameter. The pulley outside diameter is 56mm, so checking the existing alternator against these measurements is the safest way to avoid a mismatch.

OEX positions this range as an aftermarket option with a focus on quality and reliability, and the manufacturing process is supported by ISO9001 certified factories. Warranty coverage is listed as 3 years for passenger use and 1 year for commercial use. For buyers replacing a Valeo style alternator, the best result comes from matching the part number, mount type, pulley section and rated output before ordering.

Application and Buying Notes

Before ordering, confirm the existing alternator is a Valeo style unit and check that the vehicle uses a 12V charging system with a 180A output requirement. The listed pulley is a 6 groove type with a 56mm outside diameter, so belt profile and pulley size need to be checked against the unit being replaced.

Mounting details are just as important as the electrical rating. This alternator uses twin leg mounting, 61mm inside mounting legs, 127mm mount centre to centre, and M8x1.25 / 8 pivot and adjusting holes. If those measurements do not match the current unit, the alternator may not line up correctly even if the vehicle family appears similar.

The part number VXA022 and Pin Code IR201 are useful identifiers when cross-checking against the original alternator or parts records. For the most reliable match, compare the old unit directly before fitment, especially where vehicle build dates or alternator variants may differ within the same model range.

Warranty coverage is listed as 3 years for passenger applications and 1 year for commercial applications. That makes the intended use worth confirming at the point of purchase, along with the vehicle’s charging requirements and physical mounting arrangement. Weighing 7.2kg, this is a substantial electrical component, so proper identification before installation is time well spent.

Before supply, the safest approach is to confirm the original unit details against the listed part number, voltage, output rating, mounting arrangement, and pulley configuration. That checking process is standard practice in the parts trade because visually similar units can still differ in service-critical ways.

For workshop, fleet, and equipment applications, accurate identification of part number VXA022 helps avoid unnecessary freight, additional labour, and vehicle or machine downtime. Where the application is not straightforward, the original unit, OEM reference, or workshop records should be used as the primary confirmation point.

For part number VXA022, the normal identification sequence is part number, electrical rating, mounting arrangement, connector or terminal style, and pulley or drive details. Using those checkpoints helps confirm that the listed unit matches the service requirement rather than only looking similar.

For a alternator in workshop, fleet, trade, agricultural, or construction service, the listed voltage 12 and output 180 should be checked carefully. Incorrect selection can affect installation time, return freight, and equipment availability.

Available application references include AUDI A4, AUDI A4 2004, AUDI A4 2005, AUDI Q3, SKODA SUPERB, SKODA SUPERB 2008. Even with application listings, final confirmation should still be based on the exact unit being replaced and the service requirements of the vehicle or machine.

The listed warranty is 3yr Passenger 1yr Commercial. Warranty terms should be considered alongside correct application and part identification, as warranty does not replace fitment confirmation.

Compatibility note: Confirm fitment using the part number VXA022, Pin Code IR201, and the alternator’s mounting and pulley details before ordering. Vehicle model references should only be used as a guide; the final check should always be against the existing unit and its application details.
