Refundable Core Charge

If a product you are purchasing has a core charge you will see it in your shopping cart under the product.

A core charge is a little like a bottle deposit. You pay a core charge when you buy a rebuildable product, and get your money back when you return the core.

Cores are the used parts that may be returned when purchasing rebuildable parts. New, used, and remanufactured products may have a core charge. We send cores to our rebuilders to create a remanufactured part. Having a core charge on most rebuildable parts helps us keep our prices low, is a great way to recycle, and ensures there is product available for the next customer. If a core deposit is shown, this charge will be added to your total at the time of sale but is refundable upon the return of your rebuildable original part. Cores are valuable to us; we need them back on a timely basis to be rebuilt so we have product to sell to the next customers. (See core return policy under warranties and return for more info)

If you have any concerns or questions about the core charge or shipping charges, please call us at 586.757.2300.

Do-it-Yourself Tip

When you replace the VW exhaust gasket in your Fox, Vanagon, or Quantum exhaust system make sure to use new hardware. The exhaust system takes a lot of heat and exposure to the elements so the bolts holding it together get really weak. Replace them using the bolts in the exhaust gasket kit. If your catalytic converter has been causing you drivability issues you can replace it now using the unit shown below, and save on extra labor later.
