I previously owned a BMW for 8 years and I did most of the work myself. BMW has a vast community of individuals that have set up DIY and retailers that sell OEM parts below dealer pricing.

Where do you go to get parts / DIY for things you would like to repair on your vehicle?

Example: BMW - BavAuto.com for parts.

Thanks, glad to be a member here now.

 

Welcome to the community! PM sent

 

Thank you, was not really looking for an Ebay store for parts however.

 

OC Infiniti is a dealership and sponsor for G35 Driver located in Orange County, CA. and offer great deals on OE parts. My dealership in Santa Clarita gives me cost + 10% which I believe OC Infiniti will beat. They also offer many aftermarket parts at a very reasonable price....Gary

 

Check out the vendor classified under marketplace.

 

Does no one here actually repair their own vehicle? That vendor list is all aftermarket and add on for Engine, exhaust, tires/wheels, etc.

I am talking about replacing parts on the vehicle. Are you guys buy radiator hoses from Pep Boys or Napa? Is there not a specific place, that is not a dealer, that you order spark plugs, oil, hoses, etc. (maintenance items) from?

Thank you. That is what I am looking for.

 

OP is a freaking idiot. sorry i jus had to say that after reading his remarks.

 

Thank for showing your intelligence and knowledge of spelling.

Apparently no one here actually works on their own vehicle, they just take it to the dealership.

 

apparently u lack any ability to navigate a forum or the internet obviously. howd u survive the bmw community all this time?

 

I had found orderinfinitiparts.com on searching but it is a pretty poorly designed website. Apparently that is the best that is offered for Infiniti parts on the internet. I was hoping for something more like www.BavAuto.com

Thank for all your help in solving my question.

Try to type like someone that uses English as a first language.

 

theres this new internet site called google.com. if you enter a word it will come up with alot of searches for u. you no longer have the option of only inputting web address in the address bar. so if ur looking for **** your only option is not to only type playboy.com on the address bar. you can now enter the term "****" and see a vast collection of **** sites conveniently listed for you

 

Unfortunately, we don't have anything like bavauto, and most of us don't like going to the dealer for anything! But this is a pretty dang good site for info exchange..... welcome,, btw, what model bmw, did you have?

 

2001 BMW x5, I purchased it in 2005 and it was totaled by the Insurance company in June of this year. I did most of the repairs to my vehicle minus a few large items that the time to complete the job was not worth it. I had 231,000 miles on that Panzer. It was still in fully functional mechanical condition. Allstate totaled it when a flying scrap metal car hood hit me while driving 65 mph.

I found a site today that is similar to BavAuto and has OEM plus after market options for parts replacement. http://www.autohausaz.com/search/cat...id=68@Infiniti




Here is a site I found with very few DIYs for our vehicles. http://www.carcarekiosk.com/videos/Infiniti/G35/2008
