Immediate availability of car parts and repair time – how do used OEMs shorten your stay in the workshop?
A car immobilized on a lift presents a significant logistical and financial challenge for every driver. Reducing the waiting time for components becomes a priority when every day counts without a functioning means of transport. Global Parts' warehouse of used parts in Poland allows for the immediate transfer of necessary components to a courier, often completing the logistics process within 24 hours. By choosing genuine used Mercedes BMW Audi parts, the user is assured of a perfect fit without having to wait for imports from foreign factories. This makes quick car repairs a reality, and the frustration of waiting in a workshop a thing of the past.
Immediate availability of car parts – impact on car repair time
The immediate availability of car parts is the most important factor determining how quickly a mechanic will complete a job. In a traditional service model, the wait for new parts from an authorized service center can last from several days to even weeks if the component is located in a central warehouse in another country. Global Parts eliminates this bottleneck by offering used parts from dismantled parts, where most components for premium cars are ready for immediate shipment. Using dismantled parts for premium cars not only saves money but, above all, gets the car back on the road in record time. This logistics strategy ensures that the impact of parts availability on repair costs is directly felt by the customer.
Car repair time and parts availability in the logistics model
The repair process consists of diagnosis, ordering components, and their installation, with the latter typically generating the greatest delays. To shorten repair times at the workshop, it's worth choosing suppliers who offer 24-hour shipping and have the parts in stock. When a mechanic receives a part the day after ordering, they can begin work immediately, without clogging the service bay. Reducing the waiting time for spare parts also allows for better service planning and avoiding "empty runs." Proper VIN/OEM selection ensures that the received part will fit immediately, eliminating the risk of returns and subsequent delays.
Used OEM car parts as a solution for missing components
Used car parts marked OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) are the highest quality available in the aftermarket. These parts come directly from vehicle dismantling, meaning they have been manufactured according to strict manufacturer standards and passed rigorous durability tests. By choosing used OEM parts, you avoid the problems of low-quality, cheap replacements, which often require modifications during installation. Global Parts' online parts warehouses offer parts for everything from small parts to key mechanical components. Investing in genuine, remanufactured components guarantees safety and maintains the vehicle's factory specifications.
Engines and gearboxes available immediately – from the M62b44 to the modern N55
Engine replacement is one of the most complex and time-consuming repairs, so the availability of a complete on-site assembly is crucial. Global Parts offers legendary engines such as the M62B44 (V8 from BMW), as well as the modern N55 and B58 engines, renowned for their smooth operation. We also stock popular engines from the VAG group, including the Golf 5 engine, and newer solutions like the 35 TFSI (a frequently asked question: "What engine is this 35 TFSI? " – it's a modern 1.5 TSI unit with 150 HP). The quick availability of components such as BMW E90 engines reduces waiting times from several months (in the case of a rebuild) to just a few business days. All engines and gearboxes available immediately undergo inspection and are covered by a start-up warranty.
Car bodywork and lighting – original used lamps and bumpers
Collision bodywork repairs require components that perfectly "flush" with the bodywork, which only original parts can provide. Used headlights and bumpers eliminate the problem of uneven gaps that plague non-original replacements made from lower-quality materials. Parts for German cars, including hoods, fenders, and panoramic roofs, are readily available, allowing the body shop to begin fitting and painting immediately. Storing components such as used bodywork requires extensive space, which Global Parts has at its disposal, ensuring the safe transport of sensitive components. This means that aesthetic repairs take less time, and the car regains its original appearance more quickly.
Electronic modules and multimedia systems – rear electronic module and rns310
Modern automotive electronics can be fickle, and faults often prevent the use of basic vehicle functions. Modules such as the rear electronic module (REM) in newer BMWs or navigation systems such as the RNS 310 are components that must be precisely matched to the specific equipment version. Having such components in stock allows for quick replacement and programming, without having to wait for parts to be imported from foreign service centers. We constantly monitor electronic parts for Mini, VW, Porsche, Seat, and Skoda before shipping. Fast diagnostics combined with immediate dispatch of control units is the shortest route to a functioning car's electrical system.
