I asked Bert's when I purchased the pressure plate "how many of the rebuilt pressure plates are returned with a problem?". The answerer was "none". It has been in the car for three years without any problems.

I would not purchase a new pressure plate as they are mostly made in China.

Don't fault the Chinese. Fault the vendor that wants the most profit and the consumer that wants optimum quality for bargain basement price. The Chinese are capable of making an excellent product but they are not going to do it for nothing. Wayne
