Don't waste your time and money; they're one and the same.  The Emico is
made by the OEM supplier to VW, so if you buy a genuine VW one you'll
probably just get another Emico anyway (but for more money).  We don't
happen to sell the Emico (we offer a U.S. competitor's product for $95
instead; comparable quality, much better price, and never had a single
defect).  But from what I've seen of Emico's units I've always judged them
to be of rather good quality.  I think it's likely that this was an isolated
defect, which could happen with any product. Contact your retailer and see
if they'll exchange it for you.
