I would second that opinion... although not nearly as gut-wrenching of a story. I bought a no name DIC on Ebay from a guy in NJ (not the guy in FL).
DIC looked ok to me, didn't appear to be obviously shoddy - at least to my newbie eye.
Car runs fine, but after ~10 days the CIL code P0340 returned (camshaft position sensor = failing DIC). Had it reset, & it came back 1 day later.
I wrote the ebay seller to tell them that I have a problem, they wrote me back but I'm supposed to hear from them again this week. May try to get my $ back or at a min will swap it for a new one.
I will try that but it's only a matter of time until a buy a genuine Saab DIC - for many parts I am sure aftermarket parts are fine but not the DIC!
Cheers,
FauxRealism
