Alternator charging amperage?

Unread post by citc4 »

Hello, the car is a Citroen C4 2.0 Hatchback, petrol 2007.

The alternator has failed, and needs to be replaced.

The car is standard, and I was wondering which charging amperage, the generator should be.

My options are 80, 90, 125 amperage. But the higher the amperage are, the more costly it will be.

Best regards

There's a mistake in the VIN, I've corrected it above.

It's fitted with a 120 amp unit.
