My thinking is, that for safety or engine related components the cheapest usually is not the best and could prove expensive.
Always in the past i have done these things myself, using dealer supplied parts. As i now have a lifetime warranty, and with the history of these engines, i leave it to the dealer.
No fuss then if a claim arises.

So personally I can’t agree on that one palSport Touror Elite 163
