Dear boxvolvo,

Hope you're well. Proparts is an aftermarket name. There's no way to know by which company - and in which country - this pump was made. Such things matter. A lot.

Some countries have a long history of making car parts or other industrial products, e.g., Germany, Italy, Spain, Switzerland, the US/Canada, Brazil, Taiwan, Japan, Korea, Mexico, etc. Others are "new comers" to the making of industrial products, e.g., Turkey, Bulgaria, China, Thailand, India, Indonesia, Vietnam.

In countries with a long history of making industrial products, the need for precision and quality control is widely understood. In countries with shorter histories of making industrial products, these concepts - precision and quality control - are less-than-fully embraced.

In short, for mission-critical parts or parts that are hard to access/replace, it is best to pay for a brand name item.

Hope this helps.

Yours faithfully,

Spook
