Would you buy..

So on my way home from work on Wednesday i notice that my clutch pedal was stuck to the ground and i wasn't able to shift into other gears, So when i got home i put the car on jack stands and realize that my slave cylinder was tilted, i quickly replace one with a part from the dealership; After coming home and installing it i realized that it didn't fix the issue, i then automatically thought that maybe its the master cylinder which i think needs to be replace because for the past 5 months its been squeaking when i step on the clutch. my question is do you guys recommend me getting from the dealership or you think a napa or O'riley's part would do just fine?

Thanks in advance

I'm about using OE parts from windshield wipers to exhaust gaskets and belts cause the quality is much better than you can buy from any auto parts stores. This goes for window motors along with brake related parts. (except pads/rotors) Go with OE parts for the quality factor....Gary

A lot of parts at Autozone have a lifetime warranty which is nice to have if the part ever fails again.

We see this....^....all the time, brake parts and window motors that continually fail but Autozone will give you a new one. I'd rather buy OE quality parts and do the job once rather than keep running back to Autozone and having to do the install again, and again!
Why do you think they can afford to replace parts when they fail? It's low quality cheap south of the border junk!
