Hi could anyone recommend a vw alternator that has a built in clutch to fit on an AAZ engine to relieve the pressure on the serpentine belt? (do any of the tdi alternators have a clutch?) Thanks

There are 5 and 6 groove clutch pulleys for different tdi alternators. Not sure if it fits onto the AAZ alternators.
