Some may say yes and some will say no.How long has the last one lasted ie years and mileage.If you buy a cheaper non genuine item how long will that last compared to a genuine item.Is it worth paying more and having it last longer and not having to do the same job again.These are all things you need to add up.I dont know the part your on about though so can not say which one is best to go for.

Fair comment.......but the e34 OE one I got from GSF is a Sachs unit identical in every way inc. part number. Except it ain't had the tiny BMW roundel stencil sprayed on it.

If that is the case then i would have to say buy it from gsf as long as its the same make etc as all you are doing is paying for the bmw name.Worth finding out/checking to see.
