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 replacing your VW TDI fuel filter you have 2 possible choices. There doesn’t seem to be much logic on which Volkswagens received which filters, but we will try to help you out. In general this filter (#21172) fits in the filter assembly with a smooth rounded edge around the area where the torx screws are. It supposed to be in the late (2006+) BRM engine cars, and late Common Rail Diesels. Make sure this is the fuel filter for your Volkswagen TDI by visually inspecting it. The alternate is shown below. Also, don't forget to add Stanadyne fuel conditioner, as inconsistent fuel quality continues to be an issue all across the country. A little goes a long way in keeping your diesel running like new.

Fits & Compatibility
