The rad from vw is £213 lol cam sensor was £39.95 so I’ve ordered the cam sensor I’ll stick that in and I will order a rad off the internet 👍

Somebody please buy one and compare it to genuine  :grin:

Genuine Bosch at £17 delivered, and he’s making a profit.... definitely Chinese Bosch.

I’ve sent a note to the seller asking for confirmation of authenticity and country of manufacture. Was on my ebay watch list as I was intending to buy one sometime. Fwiw Bosch and many German brands are listed at a similar price point in link here

I’ve just paid the money and got one from vw. At least if it doesn’t cure my problem I won’t be wondering if it was the sensor.

If it is the real deal, it’s a good price.  Iirc, the genuine one has a green pin stripe on the O ring. Need to check my old one to confirm, but something to check. Fakers would probably use a plain black o ring.
