Default Diesel UBP- alternative to pierburgh?

As per title really, looking to replace a pierburg ubp which is failing. Can anyone recommend an alternative they have been happy with? Ebay seems full of them but searching the forum hasn't been very helpful. Can't believe there is only one worth buying.

TI Automotive they were OEM pumps too, I believe they’re actually owned by Pierburg,

I've been running a Magneti-Marelli for a few years now without any issues after the original started getting a bit noisy.

Anybody used one of DMGRS Q-oem under bonnet pumps?

I had one from a local factor on my previous 75 and it was noisy, VOLT was the name on the box and I was reassured it was a made in Germany item.

Yes used on for a couple of years on my previous 75 with no issues, it's now a spare on my shelves after breaking that car. Would get another if needed.

I'm in a similar position, the UBP in my tourer is getting a little noisy and I initially ordered a pump from Dmgrs as a replacement but then received my donor car which, despite being a 2004 facelift, has a Pierburg UBP fitted. Not sure which one to fit to my car now - the better quality but used Pierburg or the new OEM pump from Matt!!
