aldug Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 I just started doing work on a '01 Subaru Forester and I was wondering where the best place to buy OEM parts is. Is there a website which sells OEM parts for less than the dealer charges? I'm looking for brake pads, rotors, drive and timing belt and fuel filter.

Hello: I have had to buy quite a bit for my '99 Forester; I very much enjoy shopping on-line, but be certain you always order the correct parts for you car. Most places charge a 15 percent restocking fee for returns. Below are a few online retailers I've used, moreover I have ordered OEM from each.

porcupine73 Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 I've had good results from http://subaru-parts-dealer.com/ I've ordered a lot of parts from them, it's all OEM, I think they're a Subaru dealer in South Dakota. Only thing is if they don't have the part in stock, then they have to order it from Subaru first, then ship it to you, which for me tends to take about 8 business days to get product after order. Basic stuff like fuel filters and stuff I think they stock. There are a lot of online Subaru parts dealers who use that Trade Motion site (including the one I mentioned above), which is pretty easy to use, but their organization of parts and their diagrams leave a LOT to be desired. A lot of their diagrams don't show all the parts in that assembly (i.e. the strut/spring/mount assemblies). So I always compare with the OEM service manual diagrams and usually I end up having to e-mail my list of parts in instead of or in addition to ordering on the site.
