OEX Alternator 12V 70A Valeo VXA029

The OEX Alternator 12V 70A Valeo, part number VXA029, is a new rotating electrical unit supplied as each. It is rated at 12 volts and 70 amps, with a 4 groove pulley and an internal regulator, making it a direct specification match only where the vehicle’s original alternator details align with those measurements and mounting points.

This alternator is listed for Valeo applications and uses a twin leg alternator mount with 48mm inside mounting legs, an 8mm pivot hole diameter, and an M8 x 1.25 adjusting hole diameter. Those physical dimensions are the key checks when comparing against the removed unit, especially where mount spacing and pulley section must match exactly.

OEX states the unit is made using OE components for fit and function, and that the brand is sourced from original equipment manufacturers and aftermarket suppliers. It is a new alternator, weighs 4.3kg, and is covered by a 3 year passenger / 1 year commercial warranty under the stated warranty terms.

Application and Buying Notes

Before buying, compare the removed alternator against the key dimensions on VXA029: 12V, 70A output, internal regulator, twin leg mount, 48mm inside mounting legs, 156mm mount centre to centre, and an M8 x 1.25 adjusting hole. Those details matter more than a general vehicle match, because alternators can vary by engine, charging system, and mounting arrangement.

The 4 groove pulley and 55mm pulley outside diameter should also be checked against the original unit. If the belt drive does not match the pulley section, the alternator may not suit the application even where the electrical rating looks similar. The pin code is IR207, which can help confirm the correct unit when cross-checking against the existing part.

OEX lists this as a new alternator with OE component construction and a 3 year passenger / 1 year commercial warranty. That warranty applies to the product under the stated terms, but it does not replace the need to verify fitment first. Weight is 4.3kg, so handling and postage comparisons should account for a solid rotating electrical unit rather than a lightweight accessory part.

If you are replacing a Valeo alternator, pay close attention to the mounting style and hole sizes rather than relying on appearance alone. The safest approach is to match the part number VXA029 where possible, then confirm the 12V 70A specification, pulley type, and mount measurements against the original alternator already fitted to the vehicle.

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 VXA029 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.

OEX Alternator 12V 70A Valeo. Part number VXA029 should be checked first. Listed voltage is 12. Listed output rating is 70. 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 4 Groove. Those physical and electrical details should line up with the original unit before the replacement is approved for fitment.

For part number VXA029, 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 70 should be checked carefully. Incorrect selection can affect installation time, return freight, and equipment availability.

Available application references include KIA PICANTO, KIA PICANTO 2016, KIA PICANTO 2017. 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.

Compatibility note: Please confirm fitment using the part number VXA029, the Valeo application, and the listed mounting and pulley measurements before ordering. Vehicle compatibility should be checked against the alternator already fitted to the vehicle, not just the badge on the car.
