My experience with URO is the same. U replace often. It costs you in the short run.

You are driving a Porsche and trying to save a couple of bucks (~$50 - $100) by buying a cheap knockoff part. Something wrong there.

On critical items....never go cheap

If it can kill your engine or kill you because you cant stop but really good stuff. When it comes to engine buy OEM...brakes lots of good stuff on the market. If your buying Audio , stuff or something that is not critical to the drive train (remember engine cooling as well) you can be thrifty. I am going to do a preemptive water pump replacement in the spring...mine is fine but I am approaching 80K miles....time for a new Water Pump and AOS just because.
