I have the Meyle tie rod ends on my Audi Posted by Bill Homer [Email] ![]() ![]() In Reply to: Re: Meyle parts = JUNK!, Robert Castro, Wed, 13 May 2009 10:15:11 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
and they are better than the factory parts - however, the exact same part that Audi uses was recalled on VWs by federal mandate, so this isn't a big stretch. For the record, one of the two Meyle brake hoses that I installed on my Audi had a defective connector fitting, so I'm batting only .500 on personal success with Meyle parts for my repair jobs. My time and safety is worth more to me than the money saved.
It's nice to hear from a factory rep, so thanks for writing. If you want to read more complaints about Meyle parts, do a search on Audiworld and you will "get an earful" - I'm just relaying my experience and what I have read over a period of time. Oh by the way, the three people that I know with Honda Odysseys have ALL had tranmission failures within 75,000 miles, so I would catagorize that particular part as JUNK (or seriously undersized for the application).
