link hidden, please login to view announced the release of 164 new automotive repair solutions this month for its Light Duty segment. The new products join a growing Light Duty catalog of over 133,000 SKUs, offering millions of new sales opportunities for automotive parts distributors, retailers and repair shops, as well as more accessible solutions for vehicle owners, according to Dorman. This month’s releases include a dozen new Dorman OE FIX repair innovations that provide customers with improved performance and repair convenience that they may not be able to obtain with parts acquired from a dealership,

The company added that one of those OE FIX innovations is an upgraded camshaft bridge cover designed for select Volkswagen and Audi vehicles equipped with 2.0L engines. The original equipment cover may fail from pressure pulsations that can cause internal component damage. The Dorman replacement features several design improvements that help mitigate the pulsations and prevent filter clogging that can starve the engine for oil and harm vehicle performance.
“At Dorman, innovation drives everything we do,” said Eric Luftig, senior vice president. “We’re proud to bring groundbreaking solutions to the automotive aftermarket, helping consumers find the right parts when they need them most. Our commitment to empowering vehicle owners and repair professionals with quality, accessibility and reliability continues to fuel our passion for progress.”
Dorman said it continues to expand its components for turbocharger repair and replacement, adding a new OE FIX oil feed line constructed of braided stainless steel over the line’s flexible sections. The line is engineered to offer a more durable replacement compared to the original equipment’s braided nylon sheathing used in certain Ford Escape and Ford Fusion models, the company said.
Additional highlights for March include:
An OE FIX radiator outlet hose for select Dodge Durango and Jeep Grand Cherokee SUVs. The line features a rugged aluminum Y-connector in place of the factory’s plastic connector. A main battery fuse with coverage designed for a significant number of Cadillac and Chevrolet vehicles, and engineered to match the performance of the original equipment fuse. A new transmission oil cooler designed to match the performance of the factory cooler on select Dodge Durango SUVs. The cooler joins a comprehensive lineup of quality fluid coolers from Dorman.

Your car’s control module is one of the most important components in ensuring a smooth and efficient ride. Whether it’s an Engine Control Module (ECM), Powertrain Control Module (PCM), or Transmission Control Module (TCM), these electronic units play a crucial role in regulating engine performance, fuel efficiency, and transmission behavior.
At Clifford Auto Parts, we specialize in providing OEM control modules that guarantee compatibility, reliability, and long-term performance. But how do you know when it’s time to replace your control module? Let’s break it down!
✅ What Is a Control Module and What Does It Do?
A control module is an onboard computer that processes data from various sensors in your car and makes real-time adjustments to optimize performance. Some of the most common control modules include:
✔️ Engine Control Module (ECM) – Controls ignition timing, fuel injection, and emissions.
✔️ Powertrain Control Module (PCM) – Manages both engine and transmission functions.
✔️ Transmission Control Module (TCM) – Regulates gear shifting and transmission efficiency.
✔️ Body Control Module (BCM) – Handles electrical functions such as lighting, locks, and windows.
When these modules start to fail, your car may experience serious performance issues that could lead to costly repairs.
✅ Signs of a Failing Control Module
If your control module is going bad, your car will usually give you warning signs. Here are the top indicators that it may be time for a replacement:
🚨 Check Engine Light Stays On
If your Check Engine Light won’t turn off even after repairs, it could be due to a failing ECM or PCM.
🚨 Poor Fuel Efficiency
A malfunctioning control module may send incorrect signals, leading to excess fuel consumption and reduced mileage.
🚨 Difficulty Starting the Car
If your car struggles to start, the ECM might not be properly managing the fuel and ignition system.
🚨 Transmission Issues
A faulty PCM or TCM can cause hard shifting, gear slipping, or delayed acceleration.
🚨 Engine Stalling or Misfiring
A failing ECM can result in irregular combustion cycles, leading to stalling, misfires, and sluggish performance.
🚨 Electrical Malfunctions
The BCM controls many electronic functions, so if your power windows, locks, or headlights start acting up, it may be time for a replacement.
✅ What Causes Control Modules to Fail?
Several factors can lead to a control module failure, including:
🔥 Water or Moisture Damage – Exposure to moisture can corrode internal circuits.
⚡ Voltage Surges – A faulty alternator or battery can overload the control module.
🔧 Worn-Out Components – Over time, electronic components degrade, leading to failure.
💥 Physical Damage – Accidents or engine overheating can cause module failure.
If you’re experiencing any of these issues, replacing your control module can prevent further damage and restore your vehicle’s performance.
✅ Why Choose an OEM Control Module Over Aftermarket?
When replacing a control module, you have two options: OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) or Aftermarket. Here’s why OEM control modules are the best choice:
✔️ Guaranteed Compatibility – Designed specifically for your vehicle’s make and model.
✔️ Pre-Programmed for Plug-and-Play Use – No extra programming needed.
✔️ Factory-Tested for Reliability – OEM parts undergo rigorous quality checks.
✔️ Maintains Vehicle Warranty – Aftermarket parts may void manufacturer warranties.
✔️ Longer Lifespan – OEM modules are built to last, unlike some aftermarket options.

I need to replace the upper and lower control arms but OEM is out of mynprice range so just looking for advice/opinions on other good brands. I think it is well known now that Moog isn't the quality that it was a few years ago as most of their stuff is made in China. Please shoot me some experiences you have had with brands.
