IPD Going Chinese

posted by  someone claiming to be John on  Fri Jul 13 13:23 CST 2007 [RELATED]

All,

I don't know if this is the right place to post and I don't want to severly bash IPD but I have been a long time customer of IPD. They have always had a good assortment of aftermarket parts from Mann and other German Mfgs. However, my last batch from IPD included filters, some brake pads etc. All of it made in CHINA. This really irks me on two fronts.

1. The prices have not gone down and they are selling them as top quality aftermarket which they are definitely not.

2. More importantly, the quality of the air and cabin filters was abysmal, so bad that I wouldn't install the air filter. The fit was extremely sloppy, nothing like the original.

So, if I offended anyone sorry, but I though the folks should know if you are ordering parts from IPD, theres a good chance it will be Chinese and not up to our specs.

John
