FAO : British trident - Rover Advice req'd

Rover 216 Coupe
Honda engine.
Knackered Alternator - howling like a banshee.

Alternator is buried at the back of the engine bay.

Is it a nightmare ?
Or does it just look like it's a nightmare ?


(I know I could have u2U'd you, but it might prove usefull for someone else down the line and you're The Rover Man.)

216 & coupe --- an automatic ?

Never done one any Honda one I have done were at the front -- but shouldn't be too bad quite a roomy engine bay by modern standards.

According to the tinterweb (the source of all that is accurate and true), it's a Honda D series.
