I do, in fact.

I bought a brand new one and put it in to solve an issue I thought was my alternator. Turns out it wasn't the problem.

I'll sell you the one I took out (48,000 miles) for $70. If not, I'll keep it as a spare.

Hey man! What was the problem with yours?

My battery died on me, then I went to Autozone and had it recharged. they then tested the alternator and said it was outputting 13.95 volts. My voltmeter inside the car reads 14-14.2 when the car is running. I did have a ton of corrosion on the positive terminal which may have caused the battery to take a charge I'm thinking.

have you tried a new battery? also are you on the factory subaru battery? Mine went bad after about 45k miles.

Noise was coming from my AC compressor. I was so positive it was the alternator that I replaced it without bothering to actually test it somehow.
