Hello,
When buying replace parts (cables, brake parts, timing belts, etc...) does anyone prefer one brand over the others? Some of the common names are Gates, Beck/Arnley, Raybestos, Sealed Power, AC Delco. Some times there is a big difference in price and I don't know if I should pay more, or go with the cheapest.

i dunno if this helps but pay the extra for suzki parts when it comes to any gasket or o2 sensor. i find that there gaskets are made proper instead of the cardboard ones i got from partsource. and bosh o2 seonsors perform worse then the 220K km one i had originaly. hope this helps

i use only genuine suzuki parts. They will always work better.

I generally use whatever Hawk sends to me.
