Ugh... OK, thanks again!

What's the consensus on the Chinese knock-off DLAs? I've never heard or read anything good but the OE part is $US230+.

An OE Part is (usually) better than an after-market part is better that a faulty part. YMMV...

Even if the after-market parts last half the life of the OE part, at this point that's 10+ years.
