Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

4 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Need an alternator for my 98 tip C2. Any recommendations? Also, can one from a manual be used on the tip? Cheers

POST 2Original post

Same alternator for both cars as I'm aware. Try Autodoc.co.uk

POST 3Original post

Later manuals are different from tips, 1998 are both the same

POST 4Original post

Mine (.2 model) had a Lucas fitted by the PO when the original failed. Can't fault it, voltage is a bit higher than stock at 14.2V but within spec.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
