It is described as an alternator type excl. vacuum pump, with double pivot lever fastening and a 12-month warranty.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor buyers comparing rotating electrical parts, the key identifiers are the Bosch brand, 12V voltage, 150A power rating, and the 1986A00879 part number. Those details matter because alternators are selected on electrical output, mounting style, and application-specific design rather than size alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBosch rotating electrical component\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e12V alternator with 150A charge current\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart number 1986A00879\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDouble pivot lever fastening type\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlternator type excludes vacuum pump\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCorrosion resistant construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand: Bosch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProduct type: Alternator\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVoltage: 12V\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePower rating: 150A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlternator charge current: 150A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart number: 1986A00879\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFastening type: Double Pivot Lever\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlternator type: excl. vacuum pump\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eVerified fitment guidance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePorsche 911\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePorsche 911 2004\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePorsche 911 2005\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePorsche 911 2006\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePorsche 911 2007\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePorsche 911 2008\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePorsche 911 2009\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePorsche 911 2010\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eApplication and Buying Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBefore ordering, confirm that your vehicle matches the part number 1986A00879 and the application details shown for Porsche 911, Boxster, and Cayman references in the fitment data. Alternators are not interchangeable just because they are 12V units, so the mounting arrangement and alternator type must also line up with the vehicle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Bosch unit is rated at 150A, which is the main electrical output figure to compare against the original part. If the original alternator has a different charge current, mounting style, or design arrangement, the replacement may not be suitable even if the vehicle model sounds similar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe listed fastening type is Double Pivot Lever and the alternator type is excl. vacuum pump. Those are important checkpoints during identification because mounting style and accessory design can differ between engine variants and model years. Check the existing unit carefully before purchase.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe recommended additional repair is a V-Belt or V-Ribbed Belt. In practice, it is sensible to inspect the belt condition, belt alignment, and related drive components at the same time, especially when fitting a replacement alternator into a worn charging system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you are matching a failed alternator, compare the original part number, connector arrangement, belt drive setup, and physical mounting points against the vehicle before fitting. That approach reduces the risk of ordering the wrong rotating electrical part and having the vehicle off the road longer than necessary.\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 1986A00879 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 12 Months, Voltage 12, Fastening Type Double Pivot Lever, Recommended additional repairs V-Belt\/V-Ribbed Belt, Packaging width 20, Manufactured in China (Taiwan), Product Group 1 ROTATING ELECTRICAL, Part No. 1986A00879.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdditional published details for cross-checking include Brand BOSCH, Description Bosch Alternator 12V 150A, Power Rating (Amp) 150, Alternator Charge Current [A] 150, Alternator Type excl. vacuum pump, Packaging length 23.9, Packaging height 20, Product Group 2 ALTERNATORS.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBosch Alternator 12V 150A.
