Re: Ev Batteries

Once again, these handling fees are their way out of paying any kind of parts markup to the dealer. I'm sure it'd be huge considering what these batteries truly cost! :D

Knowing how GM has treated us in the past if they were paying markup instead of a flat, those prices would drop like a box of ...

Re: U S Office & Industrial Supply - scam

We get calls from bogus outfits asking for our parts manager. We tell them he died last year. Theyy ask who the new parts manager, the call gets sent to me because it's fun time. I usually tell them I just got out of jail for shooting a telemarketer that keeps calling from (then I name their ...

Re: SEPERATING GM PARTS BY DIVISION

Go through "Part number search" and make sure MFG-1 is showing. Use ALT-T to be able to filter and click on "B" by itself. That should be the list of Buick exclusive parts.

I fired up the local version ...

12699254 Cam Covers

FYI

If you have any 12699254 cam covers with the date code 22263-349, open them up and check them out. We've already received at least 3 that had 12699256 in the box.

First they couldn't make it to our store without breaking off the PCV ports, now they can't even get the right ones into the box ...

Re: RANT HERE

Can GM STOP with the 50 f'n types of oil, already??!!! I'm running out of room in a very large building. I get the concept of technology advancement, but you really could interchange more of these '18 & up. C'MON!!!

Don't forget about the new Z06 that now takes 0W50. Yet another one to stock ...

Re: RANT HERE

What about the price tape errors lately? We just had one with a customer for a cargo mat, 84215433. DMS and OEC show the same cost and list, so we sold it at that. Our ADI billed us way higher and when we called for an adjustment, they said "check EPIC". Sure enough, EPIC was the only place that had ...

Re: Bolt EV Battery Recall

We've had them ship as quick as next day before. But our last few have (since the beginning of May) seemed to take 3-5 weeks to ship.
