How do you replace the alternator on a 2001 BMW X5 V8?

In: BMW X-Series

[Edit]

Answer

this is just like any other alternator on any other car. first disconnect battery, next remove the serpentine belt but make note of its routing so you will know how to install correctly. next the alternator is located on the left bottom on the engine. sudjest removing from the bottom, remove connector and main chargine wire from rear of alternator, unbolt bolts and remove alternator, if this seems to complex then take it to a bmw dealer to have it performed, also i recommend a approved bmw alternator, prefer actual bmw one.
