The Valeo Alternator 12V 180A, part number 439839, is a new rotating electrical unit suited to applications that call for a 12 volt charging system and a 180 amp output. It is listed with a quad leg alternator mount, four-point mounting, and a R 90 position / degree arrangement, so mounting style and orientation should be checked carefully before purchase.
Key physical details include 60mm inside mounting legs, 90mm mount centres, 8mm adjusting hole diameter, 8 / M8 pivot hole diameter, and a 57mm pulley outside diameter with 7 groove pulley section. The regulator is internal, and the unit is supplied with no connector for revolution counter.
This alternator is described as a Valeo unit and is noted as a leading OE manufacturer and supplier for many euro vehicles. It carries a one year warranty and weighs 7.68kg, which may help when comparing it with a removed alternator or confirming you have the correct replacement on hand.

Application and Buying Notes
Before ordering, compare the part number 439839 and the mounting details against the alternator already fitted to the vehicle. The key checkpoints here are the quad leg mount, four-point mounting, 60mm inside mounting legs, and 90mm mount centres, as these are the details most likely to affect physical interchangeability.
The electrical setup also matters. This unit is a 12V alternator with a 180A charge current and an internal regulator, so it should be matched to the vehicle’s charging system requirements rather than chosen on appearance alone. The pulley is 7 groove with a 57mm outside diameter, and the connector is listed as no connector for revolution counter, so plug style and accessory drive layout should be verified.
If you are replacing a tired or failed alternator, it is worth checking the old unit for the same mounting pattern, pulley section, and position / degree marking. The listed weight of 7.68kg can be useful as a reference when confirming the replacement is in the same class as the removed unit. Where the vehicle has previously been repaired or modified, do not rely on model name alone.
This alternator is associated with Volkswagen Touareg applications in the supplied fitment references, including model years from 2011 through 2018. That said, alternator fitment can vary with engine, electrical package, and mounting arrangement, so the safest approach is always to confirm the removed unit details and part number before finalising the order.
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 439839 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.

Valeo Alternator 12V 180A. Part number 439839 should be checked first. Listed voltage is 12. Listed output rating is 180. These details form the core reference points used by parts interpreters when confirming the correct replacement.
Mount style is Quad Leg. Regulator type is Internal. Pulley configuration is 7 Groove. Those physical and electrical details should line up with the original unit before the replacement is approved for fitment.
For part number 439839, 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 VOLKSWAGEN TOUAREG, VOLKSWAGEN TOUAREG 2011, VOLKSWAGEN TOUAREG 2012, VOLKSWAGEN TOUAREG 2013. 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 One Year. Warranty terms should be considered alongside correct application and part identification, as warranty does not replace fitment confirmation.
Compatibility note: Confirm fitment by matching part number 439839, the quad leg four-point mounting arrangement, 12V 180A specification, pulley details, and the vehicle application details before purchase.
