OEX Alternator 12V 120A Valeo Style VXA009

The OEX Alternator VXA009 is a 12V, 120A unit in Valeo style, supplied as a new alternator for rotating electrical applications. It uses an internal regulator, a 6 groove pulley, and a twin leg alternator mount, so the physical layout and charging specification are central when checking replacement suitability.

This alternator is listed with an OEM number of 96492985 and a Pin Code of IR157. The mounting and pulley dimensions are important to verify before purchase, including 60mm inside mounting legs, 136mm mount centres B, 184mm mount centre to centre, 10mm adjusting hole diameter, 10mm pivot hole diameter, and a 56mm pulley outside diameter.

Fitment guidance provided with the part points to Holden Epica EP models with the X25D1 engine. That application should still be confirmed against the vehicle’s existing alternator details, because alternators can differ by bracket style, pulley configuration, and regulator type even within the same model range.

Application and Buying Notes

When replacing an alternator, the most reliable checks are the part number, mounting style, pulley arrangement, and electrical specification. This unit is identified as OEX VXA009, 12V, 120A, with an internal regulator and a 6 groove pulley, so matching those details against the original unit is the first step before ordering.

The mounting dimensions matter just as much as the electrical rating. This alternator is described with a twin leg mount, 60mm inside mounting legs, 136mm mount centres B, 184mm mount centre to centre, and 10mm pivot and adjusting holes. Those measurements should line up with the vehicle’s brackets and belt drive setup, otherwise the unit may not install correctly even if the engine application appears similar.

The listed application is Holden Epica EP with the X25D1 engine. That is useful guidance, but it should be checked against the existing alternator and vehicle details, including the OEM number 96492985 where relevant. If the original unit is a Valeo style alternator with the same mounting and pulley configuration, this part may be the correct replacement, but it should not be assumed without verification.

Commercial and passenger use are covered differently on the warranty listing, with 3 years for passenger use and 1 year for commercial use. It is sensible to confirm how the vehicle is used before purchase, and to keep the original part for comparison until the replacement has been checked against the mounting points and wiring connection.

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 VXA009 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.

Additional published details for cross-checking include Weight 6.2kg, Product Group 1 ROTATING ELECTRICAL, Part No. VXA009, Brand OEX, Description OEX Alternator 12V 120A Valeo Style, Adjusting Hole Diameter 10, Mount Centres B 136mm, Pivot Hole Diameter 10, Pulley Outside Diameter 56mm, Regulator Type Internal.

OEX Alternator 12V 120A Valeo Style. Part number VXA009 should be checked first. Listed voltage is 12. Listed output rating is 120. These details form the core reference points used by parts interpreters when confirming the correct replacement.

Mount style is Twin Leg. Regulator type is Internal. Pulley configuration is 6 Groove. Those physical and electrical details should line up with the original unit before the replacement is approved for fitment.

For part number VXA009, 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 120 should be checked carefully. Incorrect selection can affect installation time, return freight, and equipment availability.

Available application references include HOLDEN EPICA, HOLDEN EPICA 2007, HOLDEN EPICA 2008, HOLDEN EPICA 2009. 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 VXA009, OEM number 96492985, the Valeo style application, and the measured mounting and pulley details before ordering.
