Stay away from A-German Auto in San Jose, CA!

They sold me the wrong part for my VW and would not take it back. They
guaranteed me the right part in good working condition. Neither one was
true. The only guarantee I got was my money in their pocket! So I got stuck
with an overinflated  part that I can only use for Christmas decorations. At
least I fixed the part. Lesson learned here was--stick with list recommended
vendors!
