{"product_id":"a5421036-oex-alternator-12v-180a-valeo-style","title":"OEX Alternator 12V 180A Valeo Style VXA022","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOEX 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew alternator, not remanufactured\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e12V system voltage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e180A power rating\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInternal regulator type\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eValeo style application\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwin leg alternator mount\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand: OEX\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProduct type: Alternator\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnit of measure: Each\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew \/ Reman.: New\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVoltage: 12\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePower rating: 180A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRegulator type: Internal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuits unit make: Valeo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eVerified fitment references\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAudi A4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAudi Q3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSkoda Superb\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVolkswagen CC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVolkswagen Passat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVolkswagen Passat Alltrack\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVolkswagen Tiguan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eApplication and Buying Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBefore 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMounting 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWarranty 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBefore 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRelevant published details for this unit include Type ALTERNATOR, Unit of Measure EACH, Warranty 3yr Passenger 1yr Commercial, Inside Mounting Legs 61mm, Pivot Hole Diameter M8x1.25 \/ 8, Pulley Outside Diameter 56mm, Regulator Type Internal, Voltage 12, Mount Cnt to Cnt 127mm, Weight 7.2kg.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdditional published details for cross-checking include Product Group 1 ROTATING ELECTRICAL, Part No. VXA022, Brand OEX, Description OEX Alternator 12V 180A Valeo Style, Adjusting Hole Diameter M8x1.25 \/ 8, Pin Code IR201, Power Rating (Amp) 180, Pulley Section 6 Groove, Suits Unit Make Valeo, Alternator Mount Twin Leg.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOEX Alternator 12V 180A Valeo Style. Part number VXA022 should be checked first. Listed voltage is 12. Listed output rating is 180.

Pulley configuration is 6 Groove. Those physical and electrical details should line up with the original unit before the replacement is approved for fitment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAvailable application references include AUDI A4, AUDI A4 2004, AUDI A4 2005, AUDI Q3, SKODA SUPERB, SKODA SUPERB 2008.

Warranty terms should be considered alongside correct application and part identification, as warranty does not replace fitment confirmation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCompatibility note:\u003c\/strong\u003e Confirm fitment using the part number VXA022, Pin Code IR201, and the alternator’s mounting and pulley details before ordering.
