...mhh, in the T5, I also have the good display for the battery voltage, Roger. However, it also estimates icon_smile.gif more, but the oil temperature seems to be quite accurate on this vehicle.

I had the starter motor tested by a service center, and they found that the armature, which is the central rotating part, has a short circuit.
I suspect that the clutch might be the cause of the problem, possibly in connection with the Tiptronic transmission.
The limiter rotates at approximately three times the engine speed and is then slowed down from approximately 14,000 to 8,000 RPM in one second during upshifts.
I don't want to know what the additional costs will be.

The repair would have cost 350 euros, so I bought a new one from eBay for 160 euros.
I usually prefer original parts, but this one can hardly be worse than the original.

I somehow suspect that my Allroad has a breaking point at around 300,000 km.
What has been happening lately is disgusting icon_confused.gif.

The parts of the alternator are named the same as what they do. The rotating part is called the rotor, and the stationary winding around it is called the stator. icon_wink.gif

A lime spreader doesn't necessarily have a paw-type spreader; there are other designs available, but the paw-type spreader is the most popular in the automotive industry.

Generally speaking, the two parts are called the rotor and the stator. A claw-pole rotor is then a specific type of rotor design.

And now it's enough, we're not petty people. We're both right, end of discussion! icon_biggrin.gif

You're absolutely right.
It's probably like when I would say: "I don't have an engine, I have a TDI." icon_wink.gif
Alsor Rotor und Stator sind die Grundbegriffe. Saved.

Sure, here is the translation of the text from German to English:

"Best regards."

A small update after 7 years icon_smile.gif.
The new (refurbished) alternator from the online marketplace was even worse, it's hard to believe. It was called "Alanko," and this metal monstrosity was defective right out of the box. The fit and finish were atrocious, and the regulator looked like it had been soldered together by a Russian after a bottle of vodka. The voltage was constantly fluctuating, which you could also hear through the speakers. Of course, the warranty was void because I had installed it myself.
After that, I bought a used, equivalent Bosch product from eBay for around 50 euros.
I have no idea how many miles it had on it, but it's still faithfully serving me after over 150,000 km. icon_biggrin.gif
I simply appreciate the quality and craftsmanship of German products!

Hi,

Bosch sold all of its starter and alternator business to a Chinese company in May.

Best regards from Berlin.

I can confirm that Valeo, Lima, Delco-Remy, or similar starters do not last very long, regardless of the vehicle brand they are installed in.
