As the title says, where's the best online retailer with oem parts for the c63 amg? 'Best' as in, best selection, price, fast shipping etc. Also I'm having a hard time finding the light housing for the side marker light (actually not sure what to call it) on the fender just above the front wheels.

I have been very happy with FCP Euro.

+1 for OEDiscountParts.com (not OEMDiscountParts )

If part isn't listed on website, Tracy will still be able to source it and get you the best deal on it, and you can rest assured it is genuine OEM MB AMG, from an authorized retailer.
The Free Shipping on orders over $50 is an added perk.

Thank you, Tracy!

I use them and sometimes ECS Tuning. Never had an issue with each.

Nates730

Awesome. Sounds like Tracy is the go to! Thanks for the responses!

i use oemercedesbenzparts.com.

i just crossed shopped a few items on oediscountparts and oemercedesbenz parts and some were cheaper on each. i am in michgian and bot are closer to me so shipping plus a slightly lower price usually gains $20-$30 for these 2. depending where you live some other sites may be cheaper since its a closer ship.

+1 for OEDiscountParts and FCPEuro. Super fast processing and shipping.

Thanks to all!! yes, you may find some OE parts a little less. There is never a handling,/fluff fee, and if there is a shipping charge, it will be authentic, not inflated, as on oversized/heavy weight parts, I try to ship these items directly from the warehouse. You will also have consistency with me. Thank you again for your support.

Tracy, would you be able to find the part number for the side marker light housing just above the front wheels on the fender? Left and right. 2012 C63 AMG coupe. I can provide my vin too if that helps.

msgadget

I sure can. send the VIN# either PM or email tracy@skylandauto.net

This is to expand a little bit further than what you are asking but should help a little more. Some sites sell OEM other than the dealers and some parts you don't really need OEM.

I have a spreadsheet I use to compare between different places I found over the years and being in Hawaii shipping is a big concern for me as well. It takes a little bit more time how I do it but end up saving in the long run especially since I do it for multiple cars. (buy/fix/sell)

Anyhow these are ones I have used/use --

dealers--
oediscountparts.com (thanks Tracy)
parts.rbmofatlanta.com (thanks Christina)
(both of these have great personal customer service)

(used to ship to Hawaii but no longer--I use them for price ref now and to a drop shipper if needed)
genuinemercedesparts.com (good service when they did ship to me before)
mymercedesparts.com
mbpartscenter.com
oemercedesbenzparts.com (user Star4life recommended so added to list--good prices will check them out myself)

Other sites--
rockauto.com
ecstuning.com
partsgeek.com
pelicanparts.com
autohausaz.com
importecautoparts.com

and of course--
amazon.com
ebay.com
local parts store/junk yard
craigslist.com

there are many others but may only ship to CONUS or way too high to ship to me but if you do your own searches you will see which suits you the best. All of the ones i listed I never had any problems with. Some sites you can search with the MB Part# and some you can't.

tip--when searching MB dealer sites with part # --- only use numbers; leave out the A in the beginning and any - dashes. Other sites like amazon and ebay I search both with and again without the leading A; sometimes just the part description.

Hi Tracy,
I have some first hand parts knowledge and therefore a question for you, if you don't mind answering:


You know how some parts are OEM, they carry the Mercedes part number, these are genuine and whatever Mercedes wanted the manufacturer to do for them, you have the certainty that by paying, you get it.
Then there are the OE parts, where the same manufacturer that made the spare part, is selling you what they say is the spare for your car.
It could be the same, or it could be suitable, good, but missing something that Mercedes wanted them to do for them.




Ok:
well, as far as fuel injectors, I found the Bosch OE.
The thing about the Bosch OE, is they are being sold by Bosch not only carrying the bosch part number, but also the Mercedes part number that begins like this
A156
like in the M156 engine


Would you agree then that Mercedes repackaged them?

What's the best way for us canucks to get cheap parts/consumables? Mobil 1 0w40 is like $50/jug. So oil changes are at least $100. I look at Canadian tire and a MPSS our size runs $480 or something. Best I found was a local shop that did it for $360 + install (1 tire)

krazzdav

Looks like tirerack.com will ship to you; got a rough quote for all 4 MPSS for $1174 including shipping to M4B1B3 postal code.

If you're up for a drive maybe order your oil from walmart.com using PayPal with in-store pick up somewhere in New York? Only $22 a jug now Will definitely spend more on gas than what you save though
