OEX Alternator 12V 80A Valeo Style VXA016
The OEX Alternator VXA016 is a new 12V, 80A unit built in a Valeo style layout for vehicles that match the listed mounting and electrical details. It uses an internal regulator, a 6 groove pulley, and a quad leg alternator mount, so the physical configuration needs to line up with the vehicle before purchase.
Key dimensions include 73mm inside mounting legs, 155mm mount centre to centre, a 52mm pulley outside diameter, and an M10x1.5 / 10 adjusting hole diameter. Those details are the main checks for confirming whether the alternator will physically sit and align correctly in the vehicle.
This unit is sold each and carries part number VXA016. It is described as an OEX Alternator 12V 80A Valeo Style, with a warranty of 3 years for passenger use and 1 year for commercial use. As with any alternator replacement, the part number and mounting pattern should be checked against the existing unit before ordering.

Application and Buying Notes
When replacing an alternator, the most important checks are not only voltage and amp output, but also the mounting style and pulley setup. This unit is 12V and 80A, with a 6 groove pulley, internal regulator, quad leg mount, 73mm inside mounting legs, and 155mm mount centre to centre, so those figures need to match the vehicle or the removed part.
The OEX part number VXA016 and pin code IR189 are useful reference points when comparing against the old alternator or when checking parts information. If the vehicle is listed in the fitment data, that still needs to be backed up by the same mounting and electrical configuration, because the same model range can use different alternators.
This alternator is a Valeo style unit and is intended to suit Valeo applications only where the physical and electrical details line up. The adjusting hole diameter is M10x1.5 / 10, the pulley outside diameter is 52mm, and the unit weighs 5.92kg, all of which can help with a side-by-side comparison during replacement work.
For commercial use, the warranty listed is 1 year, while passenger use is covered for 3 years. That warranty distinction is worth noting if the vehicle is in regular service, but it does not replace the need to confirm fitment by part number and measurements first.
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 VXA016 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 VXA016, 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.
Compatibility note: Confirm fitment with the existing alternator part number, mounting pattern, pulley section, regulator type, and the listed dimensions before ordering. The safest match for this OEX VXA016 alternator is one that aligns with the Valeo style, 12V system, 80A output, 6 groove pulley, and quad leg mounting details.
