Best Forum Vendor for X350 Parts??
I'd like to order my (growing) list of refurb parts from a forum supporter who knows the x350 models. I looked under "Vendor Directory", but the couple I scanned seemed more into old jags (eg, XKE)
Any suggestions?
My last inquiry toward this end returned Rock Auto as a recommendation. I'm no fan of Rock Auto. I've received lots of unusable parts from them, plus the shipping fees can be stupid. Example, I looked up trans filter for my 07 xjr, and see half a dozen listed for $20 or so. Further research and evident that the pan needs to be replaced, as the filter is integral (like late BMW 7ers with similar ZF trans). back to Rock Auto, and they do show non ZF knock off pan (~$120). Further checking - these pans are prone to leak (go with ZF only).
I'd rather buy from a place that sells known good parts and knows the x350
