If they're the same German ones being shipped out to jobbers all over the country, then I have a bunch of them running hundreds of thousands of miles combined, and they are fine. We used to get them by the bag (10 or 12 each bag) and they've all been fine.

If they are some other manufacturer's brand, I couldn't tell you what the longevity would be.

For a 50k part, $35 will get you the German one. Those are the only ones I've ever used. The Volvo part is just not justifiable when the other aftermarket units have always lasted just fine.
