2001 1.8T FWD Stock Alternator Current Rating
Does anyone happen to know the current output rating on the stock alternator for a 2001 1.8T? Also wondering if by chance someone would know the car's current consumption (range) under normal conditions.

Yup, stereo upgrade. Want to know how much current I might have available to me...
and when I might need to upgrade the alternator. Does it say the rating somewhere on the alternator? Any idea of what percentage of use Audi usually shoots for?

so the 2001 AWM takes a Valeo specifically? Does bosch make a unit as well?
just curious because the local import parts place didnt know which alternator I would need, and I want to make sure I order the correct one...
TIA

yeah, that is the list they read to me. I didnt know what to tell them, and they were lost...
AND I couldnt find a PN anywhere on the alternator...even looking around with a mirror/flashlight didnt do me any good
