In Jan. 2016 I tried to order the OEM axle assembly from Eeuroparts but it was on 3 month b/o. As I didn't want to wait that long I took a chance on their FEQ unit, SKU5392030A. The quality appeared to be acceptable so I installed it with no issues. Two years and three months later the only thing I've noticed is that recently that familiar clicking sound has shown up when making a turn which I suspect is a CV joint. I have not investigated yet if it is that same unit or the driver's side joint that is the source of the noise as I'm troubleshooting other issues first. Otherwise it has held up.
