Alternator Bearing for the vehicle charging system.

This bearing supports the alternator rotor shaft, allowing it to spin freely within the alternator housing while the drive belt turns it. Renewing a worn or noisy bearing restores quiet, reliable running and prevents rotor drag or seizure. Supplied as a single bearing for alternator overhaul.

Frequently asked questions

What does the BCH06604 alternator bearing do?
The BCH06604 is a bearing that supports the alternator's rotor shaft, letting it spin freely inside the housing. It sits in the alternator body and typically carries the drive-belt load. A worn one usually causes a whine or rumble from the alternator.
Which engines does this alternator bearing fit?
This alternator bearing fits the Land Rover Defender with the 300Tdi engine and the Discovery 1 with the 200Tdi engine. It's matched to the alternator used on those Tdi diesel applications, so confirm your alternator type before ordering.
Can I replace just the bearing instead of the whole alternator?
Yes, replacing the BCH06604 bearing lets you rebuild the alternator rather than buy a complete unit. It's usually a specialist job, as the alternator has to come off and be stripped, and a press is typically needed to fit the bearing squarely.
