The benefits of using genuine parts

As a car owner, it’s inevitable that at some point, you will need to replace parts in your vehicle. But should you use genuine car parts or are non-genuine parts just as good? We take a look at the benefits of using genuine parts.

 

What are genuine parts?

Genuine parts are manufactured by the same company that made your car, whereas non-genuine parts are made by a third-party manufacturer. Genuine parts are often more expensive than non-genuine parts so why should you fit them?

 

Why fit genuine parts?

Genuine parts are crafted by the original car manufacturer, tailored to the specific make and model of your vehicle. This means that they have many benefits over non-genuine parts including:

  • Precision fit: Genuine parts are meticulously designed to fit seamlessly with your car, ensuring optimal performance. This means fewer adjustments and a smoother drive.
  • Durability: Unlike many non-genuine alternatives, genuine parts are built to last. They undergo rigorous testing and quality checks, reducing the frequency of replacements and repairs.
  • Manufacturer warranty: Using genuine parts, approved oils and working to manufacturer’s service schedules means that not only will you receive a two year parts and labour guarantee, but you will also retain the original manufacturer’s warranty.

 

At Star Tech we will only fit genuine parts, which include the manufacturer's 2 year warranty. Our in-house parts department is filled with genuine parts from our specialist brands, meaning we can get your car back on the road faster, minimising disruption and inconvenience.
