Today i was searching around my favorite non porsche auto parts site ( rock auto) and low and behold i saw they have the turbo tie rod kit for $79!!!! now compare that to the other porsche parts specialist at $150 to $180. some of you might know this already but i thought i'd share it with the ones who don't. the also have lots of other 914 parts for a lot cheaper than the other guys. just no specialty stuff.
cheap porsche parts for everyone!!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cheer.gif) |

Unless they say Lemforder, don't buy them.
I too buy my Audi parts from an on-line site. Always good service and carry many name brands (Brembo, Meyle, Bosche, etc.) at great prices. When my 95 A6 blew its power steering high pressure hydraulic hose, I went to the on-line store and bought their $125 hose instead of Audi's $375 hose. The first hose I put on lasted about a week before it started to leak. Returned it and the second one lasted about 2 weeks before it leaked. So I finally returned the hoses and bought the $375 Audi hose. 4 years later and not a drop of the $35 per quart Audi hydraulic fluid has leaked. Moral of the story is some aftermarket parts are good and some are not. The knock-off turbo tie rods are not good. |
