As Ron said, no appreciable difference in these pumps. I have installed almost all of the ones listed onto either my own personal vans or customer's vans with no real problems. Actually the only pump I ever had returned was a VW one (lasted a year). The Graf pumps are supposed to be OE on BMWs and have German bearings (this is what I have been told). If you look at the Hepu shaft, it may be a German pump, but it has Italian bearings. Welcome to the EU folks. Pretty soon I think we are going to see all of the country names disappear from boxing and just "Made in EU" or something similar. Then we would have to go on brand alone. Usually this is fine as brand usually means that the QC (quality control) follows no matter what country it is actually made in. VWs made in Mexico, Japanese cars made in the US. It is a crazy world folks, better get used to it :) Thanks, Ken Wilford John 3:16 http://www.vanagain.com Phone: (856)-327-4936 Fax: (856)-327-2242
