Hello, At our Avensis the alternator failed. When I looked at it and measured the voltage I noticed that it probably pushed oil out of the control cover. Anyway, the alternator is quite sloppy. At Toyota they suggested to me only to have the Lima replaced, because allegedly extremely many Toyotas, with this engine, have this error and that is quasi normal, so not bad. I unfortunately got a bit stunned, since the Lima just on What do you think about this statement from Toyota and how long will the new Lima be doing this? On the other hand, the replacement of the Lima is to cost 720€. The full program including the sealing of the tax cover and the new Lima is to cost 1600€. Are these prices ok? On the estimate there is a overhauled Lima for 435€ (without tax). I looked in the net once and saw the alternator for much less money. I have also seen in various forums that this should cost only 450-550€. However, the entries are partly quite old. About a few opinions, advice I would like to. Thank you
