Detailed Description

MPA Electrical 15930 is a remanufactured alternator for BMW vehicles equipped with the specified 80 amp charging setup. It is built with a 12-volt electrical system, internal regulator, internal fan, and clockwise rotation, making it a practical replacement for many late-1990s BMW charging-system repairs. The 9:00 clock position and 6-groove serpentine pulley help match the original mounting and belt-drive requirements on the listed applications. This part number 15930 also cross-references Valeo 439070 for the same application.

Compatible With BMW 320i, 325i, 328i, 525i, M3, and Z3 models in the listed years, including 1992-2000 BMW Z3, 1994-1999 BMW M3, and 1996-1999 BMW 328is. Use the vehicle’s original alternator specifications to confirm amperage, pulley style, and clock position before installation.

What It Helps Fix

• Low battery charging output
• Battery warning light on the dash
• Dim headlights or unstable electrical performance
• Charging-system failure from a worn alternator
• Voltage irregularities caused by a failing internal regulator

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the original alternator’s amperage, pulley groove count, rotation, and clock position before replacement. Confirm belt alignment and electrical connector fitment during installation. Because this unit is listed for specific BMW applications, compare the existing alternator tag and vehicle build details to the fitment notes for 1992-2000 BMW 320i, 325i, 525i, 328i, M3, and Z3 models.
