I'm not convinced the Bosch CPS is crap, we only hear of them failing because they are the ones fitted as OEM equipment. If the BW part was OEM maybe we would hear more of there failures.

The BW lifetime guarantee gets my vote though.

A lifetime guarantee does not make it better though and many such guarantees are not pursued when a failure happens because people forget or the car has changed owners.

I have only had one CPS fail and that was in a 1993 Chrysler Concorde, it died in the garage overnight with no warning, done like dinner, kaputsky, fried, toast.
