Dear.. how is reputation of this partscentral lahore... do they supply genuine products as i have to get Toyota brakes pads from them online.. they have Toyota brakes pads and made in THI...first part of code is exactly same like 04465 but second part is different...they say it is genuine...So if their reputation is good I will get from them online

haseeb.basharat 2020-05-21 03:07:55 +0500 #43

Bro i'm getting all parts of my car from them. I repeat all parts. I believe partscentral authenticity more then dealership. They have some parts which dealership won't sell. Like I purchased rubber grease of toyota made in japan. Anything they're going to sell you will be 100% original/genuine.
I guess they have brembo original made in italy brake pads too. Do consider them as well over toyota brake pads.

Some their items are priced higher. Others are priced good.
But sell authentic products.

@ali454
Thanks a lot.. appreciated ur response... I was worried as I will get stuff online rather than visiting them and getting personally. So thought of confirmation if authenticity

Don’t use the brembo branded pads on your car

It’s a bad idea, btdt

Buy advics or OE genuine Toyota from dealer.

Okay. The one partscentral got are oem speced. I'm using bosch ceramics though imported from US.

Aslam o Alaikum,
I have a corolla 11 Approx 150K on ODO. I am facing issues with steering rack and suspension of car (Rattling noise and ride has become hard & bumpy).
Most of you brothers have faced issues with steering rack and suspension.
Can you suggest me where to find genuine parts and good mechanic in Karachi?
I have heard it's hard to find genuine steering rack these days and also which shock manufacturer to go for. (Priority is smooth and stable ride).
Jazak'Allah

P.S I am keeping this car for atleast 5 more years.

Brother u should check the car parts market in Karachi u will find new genuine parts or else go to ur dealership for parts

outouters (Taha Ahmed) 2020-05-22 13:38:11 +0500 #50

Genuine rack isn't available in market. Chinese or Taiwan made are available

outouters (Taha Ahmed) 2020-05-22 13:38:53 +0500 #51

Go for agriauto they are the OEM or else kyb shocks

anon35615524 2020-05-22 20:40:56 +0500 #52

@haseeb.basharat @ali454

Brothers do they also supply for Mercedes Benz, Honda and Nissan, or they only deal in Toyota?

And if Toyota, then only PKDM locally assembled cars, or any Toyota? Like Mark II, Crown, Camry, etc.?

saqib4567 (saqib4567) 2020-05-22 20:58:33 +0500 #53

Thanks brother. So any advice for steering rack?

outouters (Taha Ahmed) 2020-05-23 13:45:29 +0500 #54

saqib4567 (saqib4567) 2020-05-23 21:23:42 +0500 #55

Thanks bro

Partscentral is supplying parts for all cars. They even imported brake pads for ford raptor in Pakistan. If part isn't available then they will import for you.

haseeb.basharat 2020-05-23 23:20:46 +0500 #57

Agriauto is mainly pkdm oem. Thailand corolla comes with kyb.

haseeb.basharat 2020-05-23 23:21:56 +0500 #58

Contact partscentral lahore or hamza younus rawalpindi. Both of them can courier you the part. Do you need outer toe of steering or complete steering rack assembly? I would suggest to get a good condition kaabli steering rack from shershah in cheap.

anon35615524 2020-05-23 23:27:38 +0500 #59

That's indeed Great and Great to know.

If part is 100% genuine and original, and they source it for you, then what else one may need?

haseeb.basharat 2020-05-24 00:44:06 +0500 #60

110% genuine. I am currently using bosch oil filters for my car purchased from them. They're long life filters and far superior then toyota ones. My engine runs easily with them upto 7000kms with total 5w30. Yeah I switched back to total 5w30 from amsoil 5w30 as I was facing serious cold startup noise in amsoil.
