Hidden Treasure in Salvage Yards

Posted by on Jul 15, 2016 in Cheap Used Auto Parts NYC | 0 comments

Remember the old days that we use the traditional yellow page directory to look for services and information that we need? Now in the digital era, everything is one click and touch away. Everything can be researched through the internet in our computers and smart phones. It is very convenient and one you may come across are Salvage Yards which we will talk about in this article.

You will never know what you can get from a salvage yard. A salvage yard can offer a wide range of brand, make, and selection of parts that you need. It is called a bag of treasure because you can find valuable parts for such a cheap price. It is also a place for hard to find parts when you are restoring or owning vintage cars. Based from personal experience I have come to a salvage yard and I wasn’t really expecting to find the part that I need but I’m really desperate so I did give it a try. I was looking for a front bumper of a Mitsubishi Sedan and luckily out of nowhere I found one. It is also the same color that I need for my car. I got it for only $30.00 would you believe that? In authorize service centers it may cost around $100-$200 and triple the price from salvage yards. I ask the man who owns the salvage yard and he told me that the part that I purchased comes from a car that recently junk by its owner because it was involve in an accident, luckily the driver was not harmed and the damage part of the car is from the rear the reason why the front bumper has been saved. That is why I have it now. Salvage Yards also work by paying cash for your junk car or you can sell parts in case you have some stock after replacement it’s another way for cash back.

Top 4 Major Car Repairs

Posted by on May 15, 2016 in Cheap Used Auto Parts NYC | 0 comments

No matter how we care for our car, the day will come that a bad day will happen and we need to do some repairs. Sometimes the worst case happens when you have to have a major repair. Because we love our car so much, we will fix it and do the repair but it’s so expensive.

To give you a quick list, here are major car problem and repairs.

  • A worn out or blown engine

    What car runs without an engine? Every car needs one. For you to run your car you need a fully functional engine. An engines performance is measured by mileage not commonly by age or type. It is suggested that if your car already run more than 150000 miles it is good to rest. A new car engine may range up to $1000 to $4000 depending on the engine model. Furthermore, engine parts are generally expensive and salvage yards are considered to be a good alternative.

  • The suspension and steering system

    This is what ensures a smooth ride in a vehicle and helps the driver manage the car. When the suspension or steering system isn’t working properly it can be very dangerous. The steering and transmission system ranges from $250 to $500.

  • The transmission

    For many people when their car’s transmission stops working it’s the most stressful. A car can’t function at all when there’s a significant problem with the transmission. Usually, transmission is caused by old transmission fluid which is commonly ignored. Transmission issues may cause you a major $2000 to $3500 for replacement. Ouch!

  • The heating and air conditioning system

    Many times when these systems malfunction, car owners will get a hold of replacing them because they are so expensive. The price for a new compressor varies between $200 and $600 which depends on your brand and model, the repair shop you seeks help with, and of course, the cause of malfunction. But as we all know, not having these systems can make your driving journey uncomfortable as these systems provides cooling and heating depending on the weather condition of the outside environment.

If your car needs any of these replacement parts, it’s often best to find used options. Used car parts mean you can enjoy reliability and quality, but with a lower price tag than you’ll find with new car parts. New York City Auto Salvage and Glass has one of the area’s largest selection of top quality used car parts.

Call 718-297- 9797 to see if they can get your car back in proper working order. You can also follow us on Facebook to see what our satisfied customers have to say about our selection of salvage parts.

Things you Should Know about Used Auto Parts

Posted by on Apr 14, 2016 in Cheap Used Auto Parts NYC | 0 comments

Have you considered buying used auto parts? Are you having second thoughts?

Well, let me help you clear up your mind. Here are the things you should know about used auto parts and why.

  1. Old but new
    Sounds confusing right? What I’m trying to say is that old parts but perform like brand new. Mostly used auto parts being brought to salvage yards are in good to best condition. But of course, make sure to deal with legitimate ones to ensure quality of all items sold. After all, used auto parts are tried and tested making it easy for you to decide whether to want them or not.
  2. Is your used auto part from trusted suppliers?
    It is always best to have a transaction with known supplier for assurance. Check to see if they have a license to operate. Most of these salvage yards have active website to promote their business so grab the opportunity and make an initial background check. Nobody wants to be fooled, right?
  3. Used auto parts is cheaper than new parts
    Oh well, big yes! This great advantage is so much in favor specially if you are a car savvy and you’ve wanted to have some additional parts or upgrade for your car. It is suitable to shop for used ones than purchase new allowing you to save up to 40-55 percent on average. Isn’t that great?!
  4. OEM Standards
    By the way, OEM stands for Short for Original Equipment Manufacturer Standard. New or after-market parts manufactured may or may not be identical to the parts originally manufactured for a certain automobile. The reason is that they may be from third party manufacturer. So used auto parts play a big role here. Due to some car owners deciding to junk their car, most of the parts there are original. You are sure that the part you are looking for (of course, same make and model) will fit and function properly.

Firstly, research the car you are looking for, we don’t want our cash for nothing. Research the car, the pros and cons of having this car and the availability of the parts for maintenance. In addition, if it is possible to know it’s history please do it so.

A car within your reach. Look for a car that is in your budget, there will always be a car for you that fits in your budget that will be very useful to you. Don’t forget to ask for discounts. Used cars are oftentimes negotiable.

Second thoughts? Have someone to be with you when looking for a car. It could be your partner, a relative or a friend who may know about cars or someone that knows your needs when it come of having a car. 4 eyes and 2 brains are better to meticulously find that car of yours.

The most important part, the CAR itself have an inspection checklist. Always inspect in broad daylight it will help you see the car inside out. Check for damage and rust look underneath the car check on the seams, the frame rails, the car flooring and also the trunk because those are the usual parts where rust tend to start. This also includes the paint, the paint is the first line of protection against the environment and also the one that gives that impression of “I want that car!” because of the paint job. Check for dents and scratches, the lesser of this problems the better. Check the doors, hood, and the trunk door, overtime this parts tend to not close firmly so it’s better to check them. We don’t want it to open while driving.

The heart of the car, the ENGINE. If possible start the engine, listen to it. It should run smooth in acceleration, deceleration and while driving. The temperature should always be in the safe range and not overheating. Any unusual rattling or vibrations could mean there’s something wrong in the engine. Check also for oil leaks it could be from the engine itself, suspension, steering or brakes to avoid unwanted accident.

The inside of the car. Check for the interiors, the seats, dashboard and carpeting. It’s better if the car has no history of flooding. Check the seatbelts, make sure it is in good condition and the buckles and the belt itself is free from cuts. Furthermore, check the gauges, if they are accurate. The fuel, speed and temperature gauge. They are telling you what is happening as you drive the car.

The accessories, additional features of the car. It’s good if all the accessories are intact when you inspect the car, it has good ventilation hot and cold weather, sound system, and car lighter socket for phone charging, it’s always better to maximize the whole car.

Ask for a test drive. It’s like meeting the person face to face or working with a work mate, this can help you develop on overall impression on the car you are wanting to buy.
