I prefer to use caution assuming that the suppliers would not provide a component if there was going to be trouble with it. Seems there are enough recalls in the automotive industry to void that idea, and I have had enough personal experience with OEM product development to know better.

However, I hope your assumption is correct, but have gone thru enough wheel bearings and window lift clips to know that they got a few pieces that did not pan out as engineered.
Hi Robar, No I have not seen the band out of the SVX box. I have seen many bands out of other auto boxs, built by the Jap box builders and that is the type of band and material that is used.

The internals of this box are the same as they build for the other car builders. Adjust and relax.

Harvey.
