ok, im checking this out, same part number as Auto Zone with a price of 363.00 with these guys 98. both excluding core AZ guarantees for life these guys 2 years, the website is to extensive for a scam just can't fathom that big if a difference. We will see soon

if it is too good to be true.... Apparently this site searches data bases for the lowest price yada yada, there is a site the will reman your current unit for that approx price, when I placed the order they came back with an alternate option of a oem piece of 400 more. I am having trouble finding a reman product, seems the company that does most(cardone)
of that may be out of business.

Really? http://www.cardone.com/english/club/ seems "alive" but that doesn't mean much I know.

However, nothing shows up in Google.

In my brief experience with MB, you will find plenty of places with absolutely exorbitant prices, and then some that are more reasonable for the exact same part.

I had to do some shopping for CV axles (thankfully didn't have to buy one) for the wagon, and the first quote was $1200 for (1) axle. Looking around a bit, I found plenty of places with more realistic pricing - around $125.

My guess is that you're seeing the same thing. It's probably an ATE part that is shared with a bunch of other European stuff and not some MB exclusive crapola.

if you're not opposed to a used one, try Martins Import salvage in Wendell, or http://www.car-part.com (national junkyard database).

car-part.com shows them from ~$25-250 for used

Unless it's a known high-failure rate part, I would not hesitate to put a used one in there.

thanks for the help there Bret! :sing:

i dont have one, i checked already. Used ones do come with a warranty also.

i'm going that route, Advance called and got me one with a one year warranty for 244. I have spent way more in wasted time trying to find something. I can then send my old one to be rebuilt for 93 if I so chose. I might call wendell and see if they can get me one sooner.
