Alternator-Base Valeo 439498
VALEO 439636 alternator for the 2008-2014 BMW X6 V8 4.4L and other vehicles charges the battery and powers the electrical system while the engine runs.
A battery warning light, dim headlights or a battery that keeps going flat can point to a charging problem. A weak battery can show the same symptoms, so these signs alone do not prove the alternator is at fault. If the alternator is the cause, this VALEO alternator replaces it.
This alternator is listed for a wide range of BMW models, among them the 2008-2014 BMW X6 V8 4.4L, the 2011-2013 BMW 550i V8 4.4L and the 2011-2013 BMW 550i xDrive V8 4.4L. The 2008-2014 BMW X6 V8 4.4L takes one. If your BMW is not named here, look it up in the "Vehicles it fits" section.
