Beware of Counterfeit / Fake GFB Products!

[@yosesw20]

I'm glad I watched this video. I bought one of these about a week ago and it looks like mine is a fake unit. Luckily I haven't fitted it yet and have contacted the seller for a refund.

[@yosesw20]

It was a fake and I did manage to get my money back.

Nice to know that the company came to warn about certain details among the parts offered in the parallel market, and that they don't have a quality control in appearance and also mainly in the precision and tolerance in the machined parts. I would like to know how I find out about the brand's official representatives in my country, Brazil.

Great that you have put this video out there...people need to know and unscupulous counterfeit retailers nneds to be put of of buisiness or fined.

Ended up with a fake one, ended up with error codes. Replaced with original, codes gone and car so much better.

So which is which in the thumbnail image? It's not clear in the video because of the editing.

Is the GFB DV+ available for a VW eos 2.0 2007?

[@bubjub55]

My piston of the diverter valve has this ring on the inside like the one in 2:28 is it real or fake

[@Jason-wc3fh]

Seems you have a fake. Mine is t9358 and it looks like the one on the left without the ring. Mine is also differently designed than either at 2:23. I have a clean hole opening on a copper ring that is likely press-fitted around the piston and left with a blue gasket ring.

@@Jason-wc3fh i put mine on and it is working good but some times it feels like it is getting stuck open

"An internet auction site" 😂

Just bought the latest Vta T9451 and ive noticed that the spring seems to be shorter by 5mm and the other part it comes with is like a brass color and not black like the pics i see in reputable stores. Oh and no stickers lol. Would you say ive been sold a fake or do you use a brass color and black for the small part that comes with the vta t9451? Tx

[@gfbuk5739]

Hi, where did you purchase the VTA?

[@davidobutt]

@@gfbuk5739 ebay priveate seller who claimed he fitted it but didn't like the noise. Should the little part be black ?

[@gfbuk5739]

Can you please email a few photos of what you’ve received to [e-mail] please and we’ll take a look. The only way to be sure you’re buying a genuine GFB is to buy it from an approved reseller.

[@davidobutt]

@@gfbuk5739 yes no probs. With xmas coming things are tight but couldn't wait to get one. Paid 120 instead of 158. Just hoping its genuine before fitting it. Tx

[@davidobutt]

@@gfbuk5739 i must say its refreshing a company answering queries as quickly as you have even though i haven't bought through official channels. Makes me feel guilty not paying the full price. Thanks again
