DCEC was the first international engine enterprise to enter the Chinese market which started running by the year of 1996. Over the last 20 years thousands of people have worked for DCEC, some of them quitted to set up small workshops or assembly factories focusing on producing copy DCEC engines. As everybody knows, price is never a problem for Chinese supply companies, this leads to several different product quality standards of DCEC engines available in Chinese market.

• GE (Genuine brand new Engine) which is manufactured by DCEC factory in China (joint venture with USA company), the quality standard is strictly following USA factory. The price is less than a UK or USA branded product.

• AG (Assembled with Genuine parts) these are fake engines. Some companies in China(even some official authorized companies of DCEC) assemble engines themselves, they use genuine parts, but the assembly process is all done by hand with experience, they don’t follow any standard quality control like the official DCEC factory does.

• AO (Assembled with OEM/After-market parts) these are fake engines with worse quality. The price is always very attractive, most engine parts are after-market, this type of engines is very popular in Hubei province, In Shiyan city, the companies there even making complete copy Dongfeng trucks, which reported by CCTV about 5 years ago. Most companies are small with only 2-3 unskilled workers. This group of companies give Chinese DCEC engines real bad name.

Please be careful with Chinese suppliers with attractive prices, you get cheated by counterfeits DCEC engines in the end, in general, almost over 50% of DCEC engines and parts for exporting market are counterfeits products.
