4 жыл бұрынUnfortunately, there are a number of unscrupulous sellers out there that are only too happy to take your money in exchange for poor-quality fake copies of GFB products. This is not only illegal, it can also cause serious damage to your motor.
Our very own Richard Fearn talks you through how to spot a fake product and gives you some advice on how to ensure the GFB products you're buying are genuine.

I'm glad I watched this video. I bought one of these about a week ago and it looks like mine is a fake unit. Luckily I haven't fitted it yet and have contacted the seller for a refund.

Nice to know that the company came to warn about certain details among the parts offered in the parallel market, and that they don't have a quality control in appearance and also mainly in the precision and tolerance in the machined parts. I would like to know how I find out about the brand's official representatives in my country, Brazil.

Ended up with a fake one, ended up with error codes. Replaced with original, codes gone and car so much better.

My piston of the diverter valve has this ring on the inside like the one in 2:28 is it real or fake

Seems you have a fake. Mine is t9358 and it looks like the one on the left without the ring. Mine is also differently designed than either at 2:23. I have a clean hole opening on a copper ring that is likely press-fitted around the piston and left with a blue gasket ring.

Just bought the latest Vta T9451 and ive noticed that the spring seems to be shorter by 5mm and the other part it comes with is like a brass color and not black like the pics i see in reputable stores. Oh and no stickers lol. Would you say ive been sold a fake or do you use a brass color and black for the small part that comes with the vta t9451? Tx

Can you please email a few photos of what you’ve received to info@gfbuk.com please and we’ll take a look. The only way to be sure you’re buying a genuine GFB is to buy it from an approved reseller.
