How much should I expect to pay to replace the alternator in a Toyota Corolla?

Answer by  bug57 (1048)

Toyota technician here- the replacement is a very simple job, should be rated at around 1 hour labor at the most. The alternator shouldn't be more than $150. Any half-decent technician can do this job.

$40 to $120 for a "remanufactured" alternator, which uses new internal components in a used housing. You must turn in your old one so they can remanufacture it.
