Are we looking wrecked belt = siezed alternator in which case little chance of an exchange or overhaul.Wonder why they quoted on a 100 amp IIRC thats the spec for the 300tdi, cheapest oem 85amp £48 inc postage

the 100A magneti marelli on the disco 300 tdi is quite capable of seizing solid with little warning :-(
