Disappointing quality and performance

Thanks to my knowledge gained in practice as an automotive technician, i can confidently say that this replacement part is not worth the money. Although the price is attractive the quality of the materials and the poor performance will leave you wishing you invested in a more dependable brand..

Pros
  • Affordable price.
Cons
  • Low quality, poor performance.

Good replacement part

This did not solve the terrible problem with this VW Jetta. Last time I had to replace 3 sensors for the light to go out. So this time I started with the last sensor I got last time. The problem has not been resolved. UPDATE: 8-2020: A year later the MIL code for this part is back. It has a lifetime warranty so I'm hoping to keep the car running with it. The only problem is that you have to wait for a replacement. The warranty service responded quickly and said to send me a replacement within 7

Pros
  • Handsfree
Cons
  • Very expensive
