And that's the problem. They resell items made by umpteen different manufacturers with no apparent concern for quality control. As a result some products sold under their name seem to be acceptable and others are woefully lacking. It would be helpful to know which ST parts you can depend on and which ones you should avoid.
Volvo OE is undoubtedly the best, but are there no aftermarket manufacturers that at least try to approach the same level of quality? I too have had good experiences with other than ST aftermarket.
I guess it's a crap shoot when buying parts for a car that is, in my case, now 25 years old.
