    Manufacturer buy parts for their vehicle from the lowest bidder, and turn around sell it to you in much higher price. Buy guality parts from a well establish aftermarket company. You can buy remanufactured parts auto supply store but never go cheap on engine and brake system, those are the parts that your life depends on.

    Hi 111prez,
    I also drive a Ford Lynx and having a problem of erratic rpm especially notable on breaks stops. With your post, I think the solution done by your repair shop might do the trick. Can you give me directions to your pasay repair shop? thanks I'll appreciate it.

    I prefer OEM because they had an assurance in there quality and also in terms of safety..

    I already tried re-con or surplus parts and they last only for months

    THANKS

    konti lang difference ng oem sa casa and shops sa labas. kung malapit ka sa casa ng honda save gas and just buy there.

    Ako I only use OEM on sensitive parts of the car such as brakes oil filters pero sa iba mga quality replacement like 555 on suspensions. pero pag palit ng mga sa makina like alternator i prefer mga surplus rather replacement na bago mas tiwala kasi ako
