    I bought 6 oil filters from Amazon and they said "Genuine Toyota". Well folks they were not. Using the CCN guide to spotting counterfeit oil filters, I was able to instantly spot that what I was sent was indeed counterfeit. Thank you CCN for your help in spotting these knock off's.

    I'm also fortunate enough to have a good dealership that prides itself on honesty and quality as well. I've found that if you shop around, some dealerships sell their parts cheaper than others, especially if you buy in bulk or your service/bought your car at the dealership, and this my case thankfully.

      If the label says made in Japan, your best bet is to inspect the parts itself thoroughly to make sure it is indeed an original. Made in Japan parts are extremely expensive here, and if the prices are too good to be true, then it probably is!

The list prices are the ones that you're supposed to pay but you're gonna pay the shop prices when you get your vehicle serviced at a dealership.

A common practice here in Brazil, when a customer gets his parts from the internet and asks the mechanic to just install it, is to do the work advising the customer that no garantee is granted for that labor, meaning that if the part fails, the customer will have to pay for another labor.

      @@hotpuppy1 Good point and great advice, that's very true. In this case, we got the same parts from a reputable online seller for about $450. There were a few kits listed on eBay by highly rated sellers for around $400 and those could have been legit, but we didn't risk it. My point wasn't that you can't get better deals that the dealer is offering, just that a new supposedly OEM part that costs 1/4-1/3 of what reputable sources are selling it for is a HUGE red flag.
      The one exception is sometimes parts are sold much cheaper in other countries, so if someone in another country is selling a part for somewhere around its list price in their country, that's not suspicious in itself. For example, I've gotten great deals on parts from reputable sellers in Japan just because parts for Japanese cars are sometimes way cheaper there.

    I bought a used 2004 Solara with just under 20K miles last year. The original owner just did diy oil changes. Well all the belts needed replacement every 6 years because they age and dry rot.Six year maintenance wasn't done! Spark plugs needed to be removed so they don't freeze up. Fluids changed because they're 18 years old! I made sure to buy parts direct from the dealership and AISIN. Your timing belt video was very helpful. Now I have peace of mind because I know I've used genuine parts and I was meticulous installing them.

Some counterfeits will charge only 20% less, so really question the integrity of the seller.

All they were was recon s/hand ones , cleaned up and put into dodgy home made boxes haha. No wonder they were $2 aud each . I have even seen after market parts like water pumps and air filters, that were actually genuine products, just with the genuine logo rubbed off. A classic for that is a clutch slave for a JZA70 Supra . The aftermarket is a genuine part, with the Toyota logo ground off. PT Toyota Astra is actually Toyota Indonesia. They manufacture Toyota models for the Indonesian and other south east asian markets. Being a genuine Toyota manufacturer, the quality is there. That part would definatly not be made by PT Toyota Astra , but instead, made in someones back garage.

    Another way to tell fake parts is to weigh the original part with a precise kitchen scale. Use grams for the unit of measure. A counterfeit will be much lighter than the original. Allow for a very small variance in manufacturing of oem parts. I have used this method along with visual inspections as mentioned for years for many items.

These hybrid Toyota vehicles are mostly made in japan so it makes that a critical electronic parts like this pump is made there as well. There shouldn't be that many physical/packaging differences for the same parts that are supposedly both made in japan out of the same factory. Toyota astra motors had no hand in manufacturing this part so there is no reason their label should be on it.

A Acdelco water pump that the picture showed having a cast iron impeller came with a stamped steal one. It was real Acdelco but that model pump didn't use a cast iron impeller. The picture was wrong. A MAP sensor that's supposed to be OEM, has a sticker that says Acdelco, but just doesn't look right. The part number sticker doesn't match or even come close to any numbers in the online Acdelco catalog. Plus the Rockauto picture shows the sensor including the green silicone electrical connector gasket but it's missing on the part I received. I returned and received a refund for the EGR and will be returning the last two parts. I've never been burned by Rockauto but you have to carefully check parts you get from anybody.

Further to add pain to this wound, some genuine companies who made quality replacement parts such as belts, water pumps, pulleys, timing kits etc like "Gates" now make their parts in China instead of Japan or the US etc so the difference in appearance and feel is not as simple to determine which is genuine and it only gets worse the older the vehicle.

    The AC CLUTCH! Mine burned out and all the Toyota dealer offered me was a whole new AC Compressor for $1000.00± . When I asked if the AC Compressor could be repaired they just kept repeating that "the unit is not working - there are no repairable parts - you need a new AC Compressor" - So just to satisfy myself before forking over $1000 I went online and found a discussion and repair video with a link to an $18 replacement AC clutch from China. The $18 included shipping. It took 3 weeks to arrive by regular mail and was was wrapped in Chinese news paper from the factory - so - I figured what the hell have I got to lose except 45 minutes of installation. That $18 Chinese part has been on my 2013 Tacoma for 6 years already and the AC works like a champ. Since the part was only $18 I purchased two just incase the first one only lasted a short time - I keep second one in the glove compartment for good luck!

    I bought a Denso 950-0107 fuel pump from amazon as preventative maintenance on my LS430 - Its still running fine and reviews are good; but I have been paranoid ever since!

      If it's an authentic Denso replacement part, you're good to go.

    There are a LOT of parts that you absolutely should buy OEM - like a water pump - that when you're forced to tear the engine apart to install them, and they fail, you are in for a giant bill to replace it...but I have been able to use counterfeit parts ( which are sold at a significant discount) that are NOT so essential, so hard to get to to install/replace, that are perhaps not OEM quality, but function in the same way, and offer a cheaper alternative to the OEM parts...you HAVE to admit - Toyota parts are expensive...yes, I agree that you get what you pay for...I own a Lexus, I buy OEM parts for the most part...but I do think there are occasions where non-OEM can work to the consumers advantage cost-wise...I understand the caution message for the 'average' buyer....thanks for another great video!

    Toyota dealer near me gives a great discount buying on line, that's where I get my parts including oil filters

    Love your videos AMD ! Great insight on markups at dealerships on parts. Had some recent 'interesting' experiences myself - 2011 Rav4 2AR_FE VVTi intake gear cold start rattle. Knew what the problem was tks to your videos but didn't want to tackle the job myself so went to the dealer. Dealer confirmed the diagnosis (after I forked money and brought them a copy of the TSB) and quoted the part at twice the cost of their own online parts desk. I ended up buying the parts from their parts desk, go them shipped home, and went back just for the labor - but still felt like I had dodged a bullet. Service rep was ashamed when I showed him the price of the part from his own website vs what he was quoting me and admitted I should just buy it from them online, and save some money. Weird times we live in ...
