what exactly does this mean? "This product is in a Denso package, however the part may have been manufactured by an independent Denso supplier."

This means that the part will come in a box or package that says that it's a Denso part, however in Japan many parts are sub-contracted to other manufactures/suppliers. They are just trying to let you know to not be surprised if the part has additional markings on or part numbers on it from a sub-contracted company. Usually Denso parts will have Denso markings, but not always. I know it kinda sucks, but that's how it's done in Japan, big companies sub-contracting to smaller companied, and sometimes that company sub-contracts to even a smaller places. As long as you age getting Denso parts from a reputable source, you should have no issues. I ordered a set of sensors for my CRV, and they came in Denso Boxes, with a little tube of thread compound in each, and I think that they were both marked Denso on the sensor. -Best of Luck!

Hi there....in context, I had my unit professionally installed. As not to take any chances with messing up the value/performance of the machine. I'd have it disassembled by the company's recommended profession. Unless you personally know of someone else who'd get the job done.

That might be a question that you might want to ask the manufacturer itself or maybe Amazon who created the product listing. We are only a reseller.

All I can tell you is that it is labeled "OEM" which stands for Original Equipment Manufacturer. This doesn't mean Ford made the item. Often the major car manufacturers use vendors for their original equipment and this is either a Ford product or made by a vendor that Ford uses for this product. The one I purchased fit and colors/texture matched perfectly.

Mine says "Made in Japan" and made sense considered that we are talking about a premium product.

Paul, I had a similar ? and someone answered that it means the product is "Out of Stock."

In my recent update on this item I clearly stated that it was manufactured by Nippon Denso a Japanese company.This item is used by Toyota on most of their cars and trucks.Recently, I went out looking for the the OEM { ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT MANUFACTURING} ,after removing the two sensors and looking at the part number listed on them,I found out that both used in my 2003 Toyota Tacoma extended cab, Auto tranny, 4x4. were DENSOPlease remember that one of these two parts changes it's number when the Tranny is A standard one.karl

it means it is probably a return item or someone didn't want it. They (manufacture or vendor) test the unit and make sure it is in working factory condition. Then they give you 90 days warranty on the product. All the accessories are there. You just don't get the original parts or maybe a missing manual. Check the details. I bought a few of these. They work just like the new ones I bought.

I would check with the manufacturer, as I do not believe this was stated on the package.

It stands for Original Equipment Manufacturer. But get this. It means the opposite.OEM products are those items that are sold in bulk to computer package builders (like Gateway or Dell). If you were to purchase one of these prebuilt systems, most (or all) of the cards inside would be OEM.Mind you--an OEM Diamond modem is still a Diamond modem inside a Gateway, but Diamond won't provide product support. You have to get that from Gateway.So what does this mean if you were to buy an OEM item? It wasn't meant for you, the end consumer to purchase. Therefore, except for maybe the person you brought it from, you are on your own. The OEM manufacturer provides no customer support.On the upside, it's usually cheaper.

Jeff, there are many different reasons. The manufacturers info should be included in box.

It can indicate "out of print" or "original print". The seller should be able to let you know specifically what they are referring to.

Sure looks like one. Typically (I'm assuming) the manufacturer will label it because there's no reason to advertise a third party vendor's products. But, I cannot be sure

To me that means any packaging that is not the original manufacturer packaging. Like being in just a zip lock bag.

Sorry, I don't know what this means. I am satisfied with this product, however.

I really don't know. I haven't ordered this item in some time, however, many pieces were whole, some halves, etc, so perhaps that's what it means.

It means the boxes are marked not for resale in stores. I've been buying similarly marked boxes for years with no problems.
