Bosch Alternator 12V 150A Remanufactured 0986049071
This Bosch alternator is a 12V, 150A unit with part number 0986049071. It is a remanufactured alternator supplied as a single each, with internal regulation, clockwise rotation, and a 6 groove pulley arrangement with free-wheel belt pulley design.
The unit is listed as OE product and is described as alternator type excl. vacuum pump. It uses a twin leg alternator mount with inside mounting legs measuring 45mm, and the distance from the pulley to the alternator is 41.8mm. Those dimensions are important when checking whether the alternator will physically suit the vehicle before purchase.
Fitment data supplied for this part includes Ford Focus applications and Volvo C30, S40 and V50 applications. Because alternators can vary by engine, accessory drive, and mounting arrangement, the part number 0986049071 and the listed mounting and pulley details should be checked carefully against the vehicle already fitted.

Application and Buying Notes
For alternators, the most reliable check is the part number. Bosch 0986049071 is the identifier to compare against the removed unit or the vehicle parts catalogue, then confirm the 12V, 150A rating and internal regulator match what is already fitted. That approach matters because an alternator can look similar while still having different mounting or pulley details.
This unit has a twin leg mount, 45mm inside mounting legs, a 54mm pulley outside diameter, and a 6 groove pulley section. It is also listed with a free-wheel belt pulley and clockwise rotation. If any of those details differ from the original alternator, the part may not install correctly or line up with the belt system.
The alternator is described as excl. vacuum pump, so vehicles that use a vacuum pump integrated into the alternator need to be checked carefully before ordering. The listed fastening type is double pivot lever, and the note recommends additional repairs to the V-Belt/V-Ribbed Belt, which is worth considering if the belt or drive components are worn at the same time.
Fitment information supplied with this part includes Ford Focus and Volvo C30, S40 and V50 applications, but the exact match still needs to be confirmed against the vehicle’s existing alternator and accessory drive. A careful comparison of the part number, mount style, pulley groove count, and rotation direction is the best way to avoid delays and returns.
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 0986049071 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.

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 150 should be checked carefully. Incorrect selection can affect installation time, return freight, and equipment availability.
Available application references include FORD FOCUS, FORD FOCUS 2007, FORD FOCUS 2008, FORD FOCUS 2009, VOLVO C30, VOLVO C30 2006. 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: Confirm fitment using Bosch part number 0986049071, the 12V 150A rating, twin leg mount, 45mm inside mounting legs, 54mm pulley diameter, 6 groove pulley, clockwise rotation, and the vehicle’s existing charging system layout before ordering.
