Got a new coil from Classic BMW, and the "China Made" saga continues.
Called the service dept, gave them the VIN, told them it's got Bremi (Germany Made) coils. Was told they have a few, went and picked one up and the part has no Bremi logo, says Pulse (never heard of them!) and "Made in China". Coil on left in pic is OE.
Got a Meyle waterpump from BavAuto a few weeks ago, came in the blue box with HUGE "Meyle Germany" logos all over it, happened to look at a TINY sticker on the side of the box, "Made in China" in 1/8" lettering.
This crap will reach a tipping point, some owners will walk away from the BMW brand. I'm reaching that point quickly when I buy top dollar parts at a BMW dealer and see "China" on them.
