Need Recommendation For A Parts Supplier-USA-Arkansas

ARKANSASMARINE · 12-21-2022, 05:09 PM

I'm finding it difficult to swallow the price for repairs and replacements from the local (80 miles away) BMW svc. dept.. As such, I've undertaken the exciting and more personal task of servicing my own car. I'm a Diesel Mechanic by trade, so mechanical understanding, know how, and navigating through various processes shouldn't be an issue. That being said, what I HAVE found, is, identifying the legit suppliers, from the knockoffs, or shady, suppliers. I'm looking for recommendations on professional and intelligent parts suppliers in the U.S..
Thank you for your help.

FCP euro is the best out there IMO. Lifetime replacement on everything including oil and brakes and their prices are inline with others. Every order I've gotten from them came before it was scheduled to.

Tischer BMW is an actual BMW dealer but with a great online store (now called getbmwparts) and usually beats the local dealer's price by a good bit.

If you're meaning in-person parts suppliers, not sure. I think the dealers are the only way to get Genuine BMW parts in person. WorldPac, etc. will mostly be aftermarket stuff.
