I have a Saleri pump with a Victor reinz paper gasket. I did not realize during my replacement that oem isn’t paper as that’s what was already on there, and haven’t had a problem. Interested to know if they fail slowly or suddenly and if I have to add another preventative maintenance item to my list, but it’s been going strong for 30K miles.
Pros: no problems, going strong 30K miles
Mileage: 48280 km
GMB is a decent pump.
Pros: decent pump
Melling and Aisin are both premium WPs. Airtex is pretty good. GMB is ok.
Pros: ok quality
I put in a GMB in my '02 two years ago, and it's leaking already.
Cons: leaking, short lifespan
Vehicle:
BMW
After researching I decided upon a Saleri pump from World Impex since it has the resin impeller and is 1/4 the cost of OEM. Well, the first one arrived with one of the vanes broken off the impeller. Impex rma'd it, but the second one arrived in even worse shape with a big chunk broken off the impeller. I attribute it to poor packaging.
Pros: 1/4 the cost of OEM
Cons: vanes broken off
