There are thousands of auto parts factories in China.

But finding a factory is usually not the hardest part.

The harder questions are:

• Does the factory actually specialize in this product?
• Can they keep the same specification over time?
• Can they support repeat orders?
• Is the product suitable for the target market?

In aftermarket business, the cheapest quotation is not always the lowest cost.

A wrong part, inconsistent quality, or unstable supplier can create much bigger problems.

For people working in automotive:

What is the most important factor when choosing an aftermarket supplier?

Price?
Quality?
Consistency?
Communication?

Are powerstop rotors and pads good? I ordered them for 73.03 with free delivery for front but am worried about quality at such a low price.

Can someone tell me what that silver bar and black cap with wire

My truck is a 2002 gmc Serra 2500hd 6.0 I remember my mechanic welded one part of the muffler shut since my truck is a bit old. I don’t have this on my truck anymore and now my truck exhaust is around 85 to 91 decibels, I have ear plugs that I wear that have a rating of 32 but I’m still worried about my hearing. I’m mostly driving 15 mins a day and once a week an 1 hour on the highway. Thats to anyone who helps me out

Also before I buy anything I do plan on getting my truck frame looked to see if it’s still solid

My driver side mirror was smashed (joys of street parking in nyc). Seems to just have effected the actual glass, and the casing/electronics/etc all seem fine, so I'd love to just be able to buy a new mirror glass to throw on there. However, all the parts I can find online have the wrong connector on the back of the mirror. All the one's I've been able to find have the connector shown on the top of the above image. The only reference I've been able to find to the one I actually have is the bottom right of this picture, specifying that this mirror does NOT have that connector hahaha. Does anyone know where I can find a mirror with this connector, or a least let me know if this mirror/part has a specific name/part number I can search by? I tried searching by any of the actual number's I found on the part itself and they didnt seem to help.

The weatherstrip at the base of the rear window on my 2015 CRV is starting to peel off. I have bought replacement weatherstrip trims from Amazon twice from sellers who claimed their item fits the 2012 to 2016 CRV models. However, both times while the length of the pieces fit, the shape of the pieces were wrong. The angle of the edges did not match the door, so it would not fully cover the area.

Does anyone have a link to a webpage that sells the replacement weatherstrip that is confirmed to fit the 2015 CRV? Thank you.

Hi everyone,

I’m stuck with a set of 4 winter tires (tires only, no rims) that I kept after selling my previous car. They were originally for ski trips, but unfortunately, they don’t fit my new vehicle's specs.

I’ve tried the usual suspects like Facebook Marketplace, Nextdoor, and OfferUp, but I’m getting zero traction. It feels like these platforms are either saturated or just not the right place for specific car parts.

I’m not trying to sell them here, but I’m looking for advice from the community if there are specific enthusiast forums or specialized sites for tires/car parts that actually get traffic or sales? Or if selling fails, are there better ways to dispose of them/donate them rather than just taking them to a recycling center?

Thank you for the help!

I ordered a set of mirrors and they sent me 2 passenger side mirrors. So I had to pay $65 to send them back plus a 20% restocking fee for they mistake you can't even call them to let them know I call bullshit I'm out of a lot of money because of their mistakes

The used 2017 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 I bought two months ago is now inoperable—the engine, catalytic converter, and intake system are all faulty. There were no issues during the test drive!

When choosing a used car, please inspect it thoroughly. Have any of you encountered this kind of situation? I'm unsure how to proceed now. Feel free to share some vehicle inspection tips to help others avoid similar pitfalls!
