Valeo Alternator 12V 170A 439605

This Valeo alternator is a new 12V unit rated at 170A, supplied under part number 439605. It is a rotating electrical component with an internal regulator, a 6 groove pulley, and a pulley outside diameter of 54mm.

It is listed as a Valeo unit with a twin leg alternator mount and double pivot lever fastening type. The connector notes specify no connector for revolution counter, so matching the vehicle’s existing electrical and mounting arrangement matters before ordering.

At 8.18kg, this alternator is a substantial charging component rather than a universal fit item. The listing also identifies the pin code as IR182 and the position / degree as L 95, both of which are useful reference points when comparing against the original part.

Valeo is noted as a leading OE manufacturer and supplier for many euro vehicles. That makes this alternator a sensible option where the original application calls for a Valeo 12V 170A charging unit and the part number or mounting details line up exactly.

Application and Buying Notes

When replacing an alternator, the most important checks are the part number, voltage, charge current, mounting style and pulley details. This Valeo unit is a 12V, 170A alternator with part number 439605, a twin leg mount, a double pivot lever fastening type and a 6 groove pulley with a 54mm outside diameter.

The internal regulator and the note of no connector for revolution counter are also important compatibility checkpoints. If the original alternator uses a different regulator arrangement or connector style, the unit may not suit even if the vehicle family appears close.

The listed fitment information points to BMW, BMW X5 and BMW X6 applications, with sample model years shown for X5 from 2006 to 2010 and X6 from 2008 to 2010. Those are guide points only, so the safest approach is to match the original alternator visually and by specification before purchase.

Weight can also help with parts matching and handling during installation. At 8.18kg, this is a full replacement alternator, and correct alignment of the pulley, mount and fastening arrangement should be checked during removal of the old unit and before final fitment.

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 439605 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.
