Default Hoses

Where can I get replacement hoses for a 2000 XJR outside of the dealer?

Default Compare Advance Auto Parts to Rock Auto Parts website prices

Hi again
I just looked up the Radiator hoses for your XJR.
Advance Auto Parts - Upper hose is Dayco B70438 $9.99
Lower hose B71598 $18.49
Rock Auto Parts Upper hose $10.06
Lower hose $9.92

The Lower hose B71598 at Advance Auto is almost twice the price ($18.49) of Rock Auto, but Advance Auto does price matching and will give you the lower price (they always want to be the same or lower than Rock Auto - their closest competitor). Go to their website and call their customer service contact number.
Also there will be no shipping charges if you can order online with Advance Auto and pickup at any of their local stores (I sure they have a few in Pittsburg, PA).

I just bought a replacement radiator (1990 Acura Legend LS) at Advance Auto for $180 less $50 (coupon code VISA - $50 off $150 purchase) and I will be picking it up at the local store.

They also have a ongoing promotion - $10 off $30 & $20 off $50 & $30 off $100 - with promo code A123.

The state of our ecomony and the high prices makes us look for alternatives.

Default Great info

Thanks Jim,

Advance just opened a new store less than five minutes from my work. I'm going to print out the numbers and check them out!

Hi
Glad to help.
First go to their website and find the hoses you need, then make sure to order online and use one of the promo codes to save even more $$, also use the pickup at store option (no shipping charges). There are more promo codes online for advance auto parts -- retailmenot.com and others

I love Advance AP because they are not only my most convenient local AP store but they always have wonderful, sometimes not advertised, discounts. This week I needed a part, checked this web site: Advance Auto Parts Coupon Codes - all coupons, discounts and promo codes for advanceautoparts.com and saved 20% with store pickup. At the moment they have a 40% off coupon code if you need a $50 part. Makes you want to change something.
