Frequently Asked Questions
Will this alternator fit my 2013 Acura TL?
This alternator is specifically from a 2013 Acura TL with 3.7L engine. It should fit other TL models with the same engine, but we recommend verifying compatibility with your VIN or current part number.

Basic hand tools including wrenches, sockets, and possibly a serpentine belt tool are typically needed. The exact requirements vary by vehicle, but most alternator replacements can be done with standard automotive tools.
