Question Hello and need your help !

Hi everybody !

I am a 31 years old french owner of a Subaru Impreza STi8 from 2004, and I will be in California next week (Sunnyvale) for business... and perhaps more, but it is a bit early to talk about that

Here is a photo of my Scooby


I need your help in finding official subaru part dealer in Bay Area. My subaru is engine tuned and I have some parts to replace:
- Mass Air Flow sensor (MAF)
- knock sensor
- front wheel bearing and its dedicated hub

Please can you give me approximative price of these parts in official subaru dealer ?

Thanks !

Lionel.

Hey lionel, your going to love it here in the bay area, Subarus everywhere

There are a few dealerships around that can get you stock parts, though they will take a couple days to get those parts since they wont be in stock. Try here for the best prices, if you order them soon enough they can be delivered to you while your out here

closest dealership is well... not the highest ranked place around here.

good news is that there are 5-6 other dealerships within an hour from sunnyvale.

I sent a mail to get information on prices and availability to Stevens Creek Auto Imports but he just replied me the phone number to call the part accessories office :s From France, with the time shift, it's not easy !

What's the delay if I order on SubaruGenuineParts ?

Your french is quite perfect, congratulation (you should use merdique instead of merdeux, but it is fully comprehensible).

I sent mail to SubaruGenuineParts to know availability and shipping delay of the parts I am looking for and to be sure that they are fully compliant with STI'2004 specifications (they only precise Impreza turbo or not).

I have never had a problem with SubaruParts getting things to me within 1 week, if you order now they should ship it to you in Sunnyvale while you are here

I would prefer to take these parts physically in a shop but if there is no reliable vendor in the area I will use SubaruGenuineParts.

I think I will order today the MAF sensor (it is not enough strong and it is too expensive in France).
However, if you know some good Subaru official part dealer or good aftermarket place, let me know
