You get what you paid for

I ordered this to save money on an OEM unit - Mercedes 2001 E430. It fits snugly, but the nipple was a little cracked (I didn't see that). When I installed it, it dripped from the start. I turned on the pump and that was it - the nipple separated from the body. I took it back and it's clear why - one of the reasons they are 1/3 the OEM price is the very poor quality of the case. I'm sure it's not just that, but there are quite a few of these on Amazon, they're all super cheap and I'm pretty sure they're all from the same supplier. Either way, this will be a point of failure as this molded shell is so soft. I didn't have time to wait for another one so I went to the MB dealer and got the OEM. Just hold it in your hands and you'll feel the difference in weight and how durable it feels compared to a super cheap device. An OEM installs and works great and will be returned. You get what you pay for. Note: the one I pulled that served as a replacement was also not an OEM unit and also had a broken nipple. So if you are careful when installing SUPER ULTRA and the nipple is good to begin with, this may work for you. For me it was a waste of time.

Pros
  • Automotive
