If you are going to do a comparison, it might be worth also including the popular adaption of the Modeo lower mount too. I have had one on my CDTi for around two years now and no issues at all.

If I were replacing now, my inclination would be to try the Chinese mount, because assuming it caused no vibration issues, the built in limit buffers suggest it is likely more robust than the OEM unit. It is the lack of the buffers and extra movement, which causes the OEM units to split.
