Original Lemforder (not the ones with a rear Febi bush) or Powerflex

Anything else will last a decent 6 months, from the heavy duty ones, to the life warranty others

Im not really wishing to go poly bush. So you saying Lemforder are same as original from factory or am i getting that wrong?.

I do not recommended Lemforder. I bought from autodoc ,fit them ,after 3 months start to leak oil from them(yes ,there is oil). Come in oryginal box but they made in China.

I don't know about all P2 Volvo variations but I know that Lemforder did not make the genuine Volvo control arms for my car.

Most certainly they sold a chinese brand in original box. Looks like not a rare situation there https://www.trustpilot.com/review/www.autodoc.co.uk
