I think about 25 years ago, when I was a college student living on about $400/
month, my '63 beetle handled very poorly. I consulted with the local parts
house guys, and their VW expert determined I needed new rear shocks. I'm
pretty sure the brand name started with an M, may have been Meyle.
Interesting.
I opened one of the boxes, and they’re clearly Meyle, as the logo is stamped in
the sides of the shock. Looks like a date code of 2008 of some sort. Nothing
about COO, but it does say they’re from Germany on the box.

IDK the answer, but I'm curious if they show country of manufacture. That
information would give some idea. I've purchased front end parts from them
labeled "Duralast" (Autozone house brand) on the box, but manufactured by Moog.
Good stuff very cheap.

Agreed, and there’s no problem with me returning them for a full refund, so I’m
not worried about it.
I’ve found a number of references to Meyle shocks on BMW forums, and they’re
not bad. It’s funny, as they often talk about how crappy Meyle’s suspension
parts like LCAs and other stuff are, bu
Well it's pretty simple, they falsely advertised that you were buying Bilsteins
that is not what you got. I have never even hear of Meyle shocks so I have no
idea about their quality.

You want to back that statement up with some substance?
I’m just trying to decide what to do. Tough to do without some backup.

Got my “Bilstein” shocks from RockAuto today.
They’re Meyle shocks, with a label on the end of the boxes that says, “Bilstein
replacement” and the Bilstein and Meyle part numbers.
I have no reason not to believe they’re perfectly fine to put on the car, but I
would be interested to know if anyo
