Good quality part, my only issue was the retaining pin they need to use a smaller one, the space to fit this was too tight and had to carefully bend the retaining pin to give enough room to position it. other than that, great part and perfect match to the OG one

I have a Hole. Note that there are 2 versions of this pipe. One for early MINI's with the 5H!T Rover gearbox and a different one for ones with the better Gettrag Gearbox. This is for an early one.

Mercedes Benz don't stock these parts anymore due to the age of the car, appears to be as good as quality as OEM part. Engine on the E320 CDI now runs at the correct temperature again.

This is a great site to order spares. I have used it for several cars and always managed to find what I need. Plenty of information to make sure you get the right parts.

This product is an ideal part for a coolant re-route modification on a Mk.1 MX5. Also, it is made by a major manufacturer and it should therefore be of high quality.

it is in stock and has the correct Gates part number. The Gates catalogue states that this part is correct for the vehicle.

Have used autodoc before

How to distinguish original Gates products from counterfeits

There are several ways to check whether you’ve bought an authentic product that meets Gates quality standards. The first option is to verify the 14-digit alphanumeric code on the packaging. You can enter it online here. Alternatively, you can read the label’s QR code using your smartphone. The brand’s products also come with a PrioSpot® label, each with its own unique code. Check that the holographic sticker shimmers under direct light and inspect the label closely. You may need to use a magnifying glass. Make sure that the last four digits of the 10-digit code under the Gates logo correspond to the security code and the last four digits of the alphanumeric code.
