This is the answer! They ain't making them like they used to. While the 986 was in production AOS were tested before installation & any that failed the test were returned to the manufacturer. I buy from the dealer when it fails so you get a 2 year warranty on the best part available.

This is why I buy as many parts as I can from F.C.P Euro. Lifetime warranty on ALL parts.
