The 210 E crowd seems to be pretty up on trans issues, so thought I'd post this here...love to hear some informed opinions.
See thread here in tech talk.

Bump, thread is updated.
Do these contacts look new to you?
Amazing how there is indentations and
tarnish in the shape of the contacts that where there before.
USED! Or fake? Filed for return.
Buy OEM.

Frankly - yes, return it.

There are a TON of "reworked" or China knockoff conductor plates in the market now.

Frankly there have not been enough reports on the new-China knockoff's on this part to know if new-China is not-good or OK.

In your case - you are right to return it.
