BBB Industries 11260 Alternator

Remanufactured Charging Output for BMW

BBB Industries REMAN ALTERNATOR 11260 is a 12-volt, 170-amp replacement alternator built for BMW charging system service. It uses an internal voltage regulator, clockwise rotation, and a clutch-style pulley to match the OE-style Valeo application.

Compatible with select 2006-2007 BMW 525i, 525xi, 530i, and 530xi applications, plus 2006 BMW 323i, 325i, and 325xi models, this remanufactured unit is built for direct charging-system replacement where the original alternator has failed or is no longer maintaining proper output.

Key Features

• 170-amp amperage rating for OE-style electrical output
• 12-volt alternator with internal voltage regulator
• Clutch pulley with decoupled design and pulley included
• 6-groove serpentine belt pulley setup
• Air-cooled design with internal fan
• Negative polarity and clockwise rotation
• OE manufacturer reference: Valeo
• Cross-reference part number: TG17C015

Product Details

BBB Industries 11260 is a reman alternator line unit for BMW charging systems that require a Valeo-style configuration. The 170-amp output, internal regulator, and clutch pulley help maintain stable electrical performance in vehicles with higher accessory demand. The plug clock position is 8, and the unit uses a serpentine belt drive with six pulley grooves and a 2-1/16 inch outside pulley diameter.

This part cross-references BMW OE numbers 12-31-7-521-178 and 12-31-7-525-376 for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Battery warning light caused by low alternator output
• Dim lights or unstable electrical performance
• Charging system failure after alternator wear
• Noise or pulley-related issues from a failing OE unit
• Voltage irregularities in BMW 525i, 530i, 323i, and 325i charging systems

Installation Notes

Verify the OE manufacturer match, pulley style, plug clock position, rotation direction, and amperage rating before installation. This alternator is configured for BMW applications with a serpentine belt drive and internal regulation, so connector and pulley alignment should be checked against the original unit before replacement.

Quality Assurance

BBB Industries remanufactured electrical components are rebuilt to restore proper charging-system function using application-specific OE-style specifications. This 11260 alternator is intended for direct replacement in the listed BMW applications.
