    Hi, just wondered if anyone has fitted the FAI arms to their car. FAI top arms for all 4 £108.36.
    Febi arms all 4 £183.26
    Mayle HD £163.89 for all 4 top arms.
    I realise you can’t beat OE, but for a 17 year old car that might get sold within the next year its just not viable.

    Do you fit them yourself? If they fail in a year or so how does the overall cost stack up if you have twice labour and part costs. I cant comment on FAI specifically but I remember fitting cheap arms to one side on a b5 a4 and they didn't last a year, I accept that the person who fitted them may not have preloaded before torqueing but it could have been crap materials in the arms.

    I have used their cams, oil pumps and timing chain kits plus a few other parts without too much trouble (one timing chain stretched just over two years old) but not their arms. They are Chinese made unlike Febi (my personal go to) and Meyle, their products are excellent.
