Are VDO parts any good?

Unlike OE aftermarket parts, non-genuine components do not have the same performance guarantees. OE aftermarket parts, such as those from VDO, are made in the vehicle manufacturer’s plant. These replacements are perfectly fitting OE equipment of the highest quality.

Who makes VDO parts?

It was established by Adolf Schindling in 1929 in Frankfurt am Main, Germany. Over its years of history, the brand was owned by companies including Mannesmann and Siemens AG. Currently, VDO is managed by Continental AG, a German-based manufacturer of auto parts such as tires and brake systems.

What brand is VDO?

Continental Automotive

Is OEM same as OE?

OE parts are the components of the vehicle as it’s made in the factory – all of the original parts that the car was first built with. OEM is original equipment manufacturer, which means this manufacturer was the original manufacturer of the part and is approved for use in the brand’s vehicles.
