Remy Alternator P/N:12872
Remy 12281 alternator for the 2001-2006 BMW 325Ci 6-cylinder 2.5L and other vehicles charges the battery and powers the electrical system. This Remy alternator is remanufactured and is a direct-fit replacement for the vehicles it fits.
A weak alternator can show up as dim headlights, a charging warning light or a battery that keeps going flat. Before you replace the alternator, rule out a tired battery, a slipping belt and corroded cable ends, since each of those can produce a charging complaint of its own.
Among the vehicles it fits are the 2001-2006 BMW 330Ci 6-cylinder 3.0L and the 2001-2006 BMW X5 6-cylinder 3.0L. Open the "Vehicles it fits" section to check your exact model and engine.
