Default Alternator

2005 Saab 9-5 Arc sedan, 2.3T.

The alternator just crapped out.

I’ve watched a couple youtube videos. It looks like a real PITA job.

Do I jockey the engine around by putting a jack on the oil pan?

What’s the deal with the exhaust and turbo? Do I need to disconnect it?

I am dreading this...

Man, from what I saw and have read, I paid for that job to be done.

When loosening engine mounts, lifting car, lowering car while supporting the engine is involved, I usually walk away from the task. If I screw up there will be an expensive tow involved.

Good luck.
