Hi there
The brushes are a very likely suspect...particularly if they are not genuine
Bosch units.  Not only is the composition different, but so are the
inconsistent shapes which need careful attention with a small file to make
workable.  German Bosch are the best replacements, but good luck finding
them.
The only reasonable non-Bosch brushes I have seen are those from NAPA.  They
clearly don't last as long as the OE units, but they are readily available
and more physically accurate. 
South America and China...no way.
Hope this helps.
Best regards,
FE Meek
