Re: [MBZ] Advance Auto Promo Code
Never had to buy one for a Focus so I don't have a point of reference. I was a little surprised, as I know my former Crown Vic had them and they were only like $50 each.

As an aside, I've tried 1aauto.com and found some good deals. Maybe not specific to your COP, but they have done me some good over time.

Thanks! Gotta love those easy ones. This is one time that electronics made my job easier and saved me some money in the process. My expenses for this car with 167k on it not including gas and regular maintenance are under $500 so far. Dan On Aug 2, 2013, at 6:35 PM, WILTON wrote: ATTABOY!

Re: [MBZ] Advance Auto Promo Code
No, it was a BWM or something like that. I can look at the box and tell you. They had a Denso that was about $20 cheaper, but it wasn't in stock at the store and I needed to get the car going in short order.

Re: [MBZ] Advance Auto Promo Code
Since the Focus was another joint Mazda/Ford design, I prefer to use OEM parts when I can get them, hence my choice of Denso if I could have gotten it this time. Advance Auto has a warehouse in Lakeland, so I could have had the part mid-day tomorrow, but it's my youngest's car and he's in a pinch if he doesn't have wheels. Not to mention with the 40% off $100 or more the BWM part was cheaper than the Denso with a 20% promo code I had. I did call my local Ford dealer and even with my discount off the $150 list for the OE part it would have been well over $100.

Re: [MBZ] Advance Auto Promo Code
Yup. Took me all of about a minute to swap it out. It's got a limited lifetime warranty anyway. Not like the ones on the wife's Mazda6 that are under the intake manifold and require its removal to get at them.

Re: [MBZ] Advance Auto Promo Code
if they really will replace it forever and the labor is a minute, you can't go wrong this is one of the many things that people don't get about the cheap chinese parts. they can give you a 1 year or 10 year or 1000 year warranty even though they they know the part will only last 3 to 6 weeks because you won't take that warranty if labor is 4 hours On Fri, Aug 2, 2013 at 8:25 PM, Dan Penoff d...@penoff.com wrote: Yup.
