Hey F Chatters, I'm writing from Los Angeles. A good friend of mine has a 07 430 spyder that is at Ferrari of central Florida. Somebody tried jumping the car and "waaa-la." So the agency wants $2200 to fix the car. I know you can rebuild the alternator, etc. Who is a good indy shop that you guys like? Thanks!
Numerous threads here in the Florida section with recommendations. Bruce at Maranello AutoSport 30 minutes north of Orlando. Bill FL
How much can really be saved from the 2200 ? I think the would rather have a new OEM alternator and be done with it. Best , Kirk.
Compliments of F Chat.... Bruce Anderson, Owner @ Maranello Autosport (352) 602-7183. This guy seems to be the man! Used to work at FoCF
Don't let the dealer sell you a new alternator. A shop like Maranello Autosport can pull the alternator and have it rebuilt good as new for way less that that of the Stealer!
Did your good friend contact Bruce Anderson @ Maranello Autosport (352-602-7183)? I agree with mr_bock, the alternator is simple and inexpensive to rebuild. Drop the rear under-tray and the alternator is right there. I can tell you from experience, Bruce does excellent work at a fair price. To Cigarzman, there can be a significant savings to rebuilding the alternator. 75%+ in this case and you still have the original alternator that came on the car, just a few internal parts swapped out.
