Fight Back; Post/List Where The Parts You Bought Were Made
I think it would be helpful if the Members had one thread that they could go to so that they can see where their parts are made before they order. I hope this can be the Thread.
Please give info on your New Parts. Give any additional details; especially if you had any problems installing or fitting the parts. Here is my parts just received today: Lemforder Motor Mounts for 917.952 are made in Turkey Meyle Drive Shaft Support is made in Thailand Bought last year: Lemforder Lower Ball Joints are made in Germany Bought as part of a front end kit; URO Ball Joints. Where they are made is not listed. The ouside diameter is larger than the outside diameter of Lemforders and I believe the extra width would have made it harder to press in. Bosch Glow Plugs made in France I have read 2 accounts that Motor Mounts ordered from the Dealer for 617.95s are made in Turkey. The Lemforders are also made in Turkey and both Motor Mounts have a place on them where it looks like the Mercedes Star was ground off. So I do not see the point of buying Motor Mounts from the dealer and paying the High price for them if you can get the same by getting Lemforders (at around $22 each). Both Motor Mounts also have 2 Blue Dots on them. See Pics
