Ordered a powerlite starter motor for a Porsche 911. Received one for a VW beetle. Not the same. Have been trying to return the item for 3 weeks but no result. Communication is the worst ever. How many times can you ask for pictures and invoice numbers? But nothing is resolved. Fortunately Powerlite has the best customer service ever! They have offered to help me out, not Mecatechnic. So think twice before buying here…
