An UBER of used MB parts - nice.

Not much room for a markup if they work with a third party AND offer free

That's why it takes forever for me to get parts from them.

I'm sure that's the case.

That's what Worldpac does. A lot of the online parts retailers are using a 
customized "front end" that utilizes Worldpac's system. When you order it just 
goes to Worldpac and they drop ship from one of their warehouses with the 
seller's information on the pack slip and shipping label.

I suspect Autohauz works out of inventories owned by other folks and "drop
ships" some of what the list and sell, packed to appear it comes directly
from them. That would easily explain the delays and "shipping lag".

It's a win / win / win all around because who ever has "dead inventory"
gets it sold, Autohauz gets a cut for marketing it, and we get factory
parts at cheap prices.

I noticed the other place someone mentioned had a lot of URO stuff, too.

You just have to be an informed shopper when it comes to these guys. 
Fortunately, most of them identify the manufacturer. I always check the part 
when I get it, too, just to be sure.

Notwithstanding the lag time in delivery, Autohausaz.com is the cheapest
parts source I have come across.



Makes no difference where i order from.  It takes a week to get 
anything unless i can buy from FLAPS.  once in a while it is less, 
but I figure that is a bonus.


If I try to anticipate everything i'll need, i end up with unused parts.
If I take things apart, then order, I have a vehicle down for a week 
(or 2 if the unforseen happens)

Sometimes I end up taking the car apart 2 or 3 times as parts trickle in.

Its a lot less frustrating to keep one old MB in ready reserve.  Then 
if you have one down waiting for parts, you can still carry on. 
Right now I have cars scattered over 1500 miles, and that is not good 
either...

Autohaus uses the stupid UPS/USPS arrangement for their cheap shipping. This is 
the equivalent of a slow boat to China. On a few occasions I've upgraded to UPS 
and things get to me promptly, albeit they still never ship the same day I 
order them.  If you hit the threshold for free shipping I believe things go UPS 
as well.

I just try to plan accordingly when I order from them and not order something 
I'm in a hurry for, if possible.

Clarification: OEM part.

I will give Autohaus credit for sourcing lots of little bits that are stupid 
expensive at the dealer, even with a discount. A good example of this is the O 
rings for the oiler tubes on the M119 engine. From MB they're like $2/each. 
Something like $0.35/each from Autohaus, and they often come in the original 
Carl Reinz bag, too.

I needed a thermostat for the "new" S420, as it takes forever to get to working 
temperature (I'm assuming it's got the original thermostat in it.) From the 
dealer it's like $45 my cost, the same OEM thermostat from Autohaus is under 
$30 shipped.

Re: [MBZ] 126 Rubber WUZ: ADMIN

2015-08-26 Thread Dan Penoff via Mercedes
I have ordered from Autohaus on occasion when I’m not in a hurry and I need an 
OE part that’s far cheaper in the aftermarket, like a thermostat.  The thing I 
find amusing is that they state quite clearly that they ship the “same day - or 
the next” and nothing I have ordered has ever shipped the same day I ordered 
it, even when I ordered on a weekend and they had plenty of advance time to 
fill the order.

The thing I dislike about AhAZ is it takes forever to get parts. Perhaps I am 
spoiled by Amazon Prime, but I don't like waiting 7-10 days for stuff to show 
up. I'm going to give eeuroparts.com a try soon. I will report back on their 
performance.

[MBZ] 126 Rubber WUZ: ADMIN

2015-08-25 Thread Curly McLain via Mercedes





And that history has repeated with the current administration.  Except this
time we surrendered after we won.  We left the vacuum that spawned ISIS. We
set up the Middle East for a nuclear arms race.  At the same time we created
a domestic welfare state with almost half the people living off the rest and
exploding the National debt.  That's not politics, its facts.

MBZ content:  Does anyone know if available 126 suspension rubber is any
good?  Should I replace the 1982 stuff or keep it?




I replaced 123, 124 and 126 rubber with Lemforder from Q.  So far so 
good.  I think if you can buy Lemforder, it will be ok. None of 
it is 20 years old yet, but the oldest is 7 or 8 years old and 
appears to be good so far.


You can always ask autohausAZ if they can get lemforder or price OE 
parts from the CC. (tom hanson)
