It could well be different, many of the diesels were VW engines but being German, they often used whatever Bosch had available so you might be lucky. Fingers crossed for you!

he would have just as much chance picking up a lada alternator and hoping that would fit , it is a waste of time and money , it won't :-)

I know it's not unheard of for certain suppliers to get things wrong (for example they list a Lucas A127 alternator as fitting my other beast - not a snowball in hells chance of that ever happening!) but from experience i'd say he's in with a good chance.

Let us know how it goes! If it seems to cure the hunting, unwillingness to rev, switch off and pull fuse #1 for 30+ seconds and replace it. Then give it a test run and see what's happening.
