Delphi makes some oem parts for Mercedes, like the SAM and other under-hood parts.

I recently bought new control arms, and got Delphi.

Replaced coil and plug. Code cleared and didn't come back. Replacement was super easy!

And all the satellite radio stuff, and much of the fuel injection stuff for the diesels.

Delphi is the former Delco Remy, spun off from General Motors.

Well I found out today my new control arms are defective, and cause a lot of grief for me and the shop. I will be doing a thread about it. The metal bushings shifted and the strut fork was bouncing off the control arm. DEFCETIVE. Lucky I bought them from the shop, or I would be **** out of luck. Diagnosing it was enough of a pita, now it all has to come apart again, and NOT Delphi arms going back in.
