Genuine Renault OEM parts verus A quality parts

[1975DCS]

As we all know some genuine manufacture parts are made by well known suppliers, like Mahle pistons for example and Bosch injectors. Well at this moment my connections haven't resulted in a official Renault dealer in Holland where I can buy genuine OEM parts with discount, like I could with Opel, Ford and Skoda. But via the company I work for I can get a lot of stuff with even better discount from 2 car parts suppliers. The problem is that I am not that familiar with the official suppliers of Renault, which are probably available through these suppliers. Like filters, I can get them from Mannesmann, Bosch, etc. Is there a list somewhere with OEM numbers and OEM manufactures?

Have a look at the actual part on your car - it should have a manufacturer's name on it somewhere :idea:

Yeah it probably does, but I don't have a bridge, so checking a oilfilter is a bit of a task then... Anyway, the airfilter is by Mahle and the oilfilter is by Purflex...
