Are BRITPART clutches decent quality?
John Clayton:
I've recently bought a clutch kit and arm from this chap:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=330215066748
If the link doesn't work then search on www.ebay.co.uk for:
LAND ROVER DISCOVERY DEFENDER 4 PC CLUTCH KIT BRITPART
but since then I've seen comments on the web saying that BRITPART stuff is poor quality -anyone had any good or bad experiences of their stuff?
Getting the gearbox out/in is such a major job that I really don't want to have to change the clutch again if it proves to be below standard
Guardian.:
throw it away and buy a proper one.
iknow i really knock britpart and you might just think im a disgruntled customer, but there stuff is just low quality, poorly made crap, and there are many people that will back this up.
i have had lots of britpart items over the last couple of years doing rebuilds etc, and after nothing but agro with nearly all of it, havent bought anything other than genuine for about the last 6/7 months, and will never buy their stuff again.
i keep saying it, if something costs £200 and the cheap boyz sell for £150, you accept its probably not as good , but a good saving, but when they are selling that 'same' item for 13.99, it can be nothing but crap.
Disco Matt:
They seem to be ok for things like filters - have one of their fuel filters on mine, no problems. I wouldn't buy anything that actually moves (such as pumps) from them after what I've read here though!
