sorry for the delay I mislaid this post.

I have bought VW parts from Beck Arnley and they are sold as new and
appear to be.  bit pricey but since I have a B-A nearby it is fast when I
need a part NOW.  mostly only engine parts though.

haven't bought a AFM from em but have bought cold start valve and temp
sensor and both worked fine.

YMMV
