Is it just me or does autozone and advanced auto never give you the right part? I have had to take back rotors and brake pads in 2 days because the rotors were the wrong ones, and the brake pads they gave me were half the size of the ones that I needed. WTF! Why can't they get our parts right?

I choose to use the "cheap" Fram filters on my 5SFE because it really doesnt matter.....im not too prissy about what I use in my 180,000+ mile economy motor that's getting swapped out soon enough anyway.It gets the job done as far as I'm concerned. When theres a 3SGTE under the hood it probably won't see anything other than K&N or Toyota filters, but for now it works just fine for me and my 12 year old car. -------------------- 3rd gen ST205 3SGTE - Alive and boosting. |
