I saw TYC blowers listed as suitable for P80 as well, but the febi bilstein was only $5 more expensive so I went for the febi.
It is on backorder... but I'm not in a rush since the current blower still works at about ~75%

thanks for this one, because I'm on my fourth blower motor replacement in what, 3 years now? lol... possibly something to do with only grabbing them from boneyards and they've all been just as old...
(got 2 power stages I swap to see if one or the other changes anything.)

You shouldn't buy them in parking lots from New Yorkers, Volare

Nice to hear from you.

What's wrong with buying stuff cheap in parking lots again? =P
