I got the lemforder version from euro car parts and they where the same as ones I pulled off the car, but with the Audi logo and part numbers machined off, superb quality very well made cheap and easy to change. Recommended

I forgot to update this thread! Ended up buying OEM from TPS. The ones I pulled off the car were OEM with 2002 date stamp, so appears they were the originals!
Useful to know the ECP ones appear decent

In the same way TRW are? Be interested to who manufactured your TPS parts

TPS is owned by the uk vw/audi importer, so only sells genuine parts
There are many pattern parts advertised with some inference that they are 'oem' but in this day and age of Internet shopping it's incredibly difficult to know what you're getting before it turns up. There have been dodgy TRW branded parts,especially suspension joints, where the castings are very rough compared to genuine oem parts

Thanks for that.
I had some TRW and Lemforder lower front control arms fitted recently and now have a shimmy now just above motorway speeds (not coming through the steering wheel) Pretty frustrating after the amount of money spent, so will check if the parts are genuine TRW and Lemforder.

First suspect would be alignment after the control arm replacement. It is recommended that full 4 wheel alignment is undertaken after such a job and including "s" measurement. See thread and stickies.
