Some parts have a core charge. This is common with re-manufactured parts like starters. You pay the core charger upfront. When you turn in your used part, it is refunded.

Car dealer - your first stop could be your very own car dealer. He was the one who got you all the information and details when you were making the purchase. He is also well qualified and equipped to provide you information or even the product itself. He may not have it ready right then, but can easily fetch it for you. The downside is the high price which is mostly because of the middlemen involved in the process.

This is not the case with shopping for car parts online. Many websites that sell car parts have advanced search options. You can search through their databases for the exact part for a car using the model, make and year as search criteria. Such a search can be finished within seconds as opposed to the hours that may be required to find that part offline.

Searching for online car part stores is very simple. You just go to one of the main search engines and type in what you want. After a second or two you will be given a list of a thousand webpages. Don't panic. Check out the 5 to 10 first links on the list and I guarantee you will have more than enough online auto part stores to check out.



These days almost every car part is available used but it is better to buy some parts as new. If you are driving with kids or passengers often, then it is always better to buy new parts for your car because it is very unlikely to understand how well the used parts will perform. It is always better to think about the safety first. There are chances of being scammed if you have little knowledge of auto parts. On the other hand, if you are attracted to freebies or offer that sound too good to be true, you are likely to waste a lot of money on inferior quality accessories later.

Changing the brake pads is the next step. Remember that there are books at your local used auto search, on eBay, and at any bookstore that you can also buy. These will give you step by step instructions along with picture illustrations as to how to change and maintain brake pads.

Exotic cars are very fun for those that can pay the money to get them. You may not know that the parts are going to be just as expensive as the car was in the first place. Not to mention how hard it's going to be to find the auto parts for the vehicle. You wanted a car that would stand out and you got that with your exotic car with the odd auto parts that they may need.

While doing this, it is also a good time to examine the condition of the rotors. You will need to get the rotors turned or replaced if they have deep groves or if you have noticed that the car shudders when you hit the brakes.

The problem was it was an old car, and was near the end of its useful life span. It had a serious rust problem, over most of its body. The engine block was leaking oil, since its seals were wearing out. The signs were on the wall that its' days were numbered.
