Adding parts to an order to get to $75 free shipping
So I'm at $38 bucks and need to add $37 more to get to $75. I was about to add an air filter and some other common stuff to get there. I decided to go through my parts to see what I have already.
I already have: -Air filter -3 power steering fluid filters -3 oil filters -6 or 7 spin on fuel filters -a Dozen or so clear filters Glad I looked! What can I add? -Transmission filter/kit $13 What else? Jim

Forgot to mention what I already have in the cart:
Thermostat Thermostat gasket Driver's windshield wiper blade Already have a spare intake gasket. Turbo gaskets may be really good ideas. I'm getting a sucking/whining noise when I really put my foot to the floor. It is not the quiet whoosh of the turbo, it could very well be air sucking past a seal. -Valve cover gasket $8 -Exh manifold to Turbo gasket $5 -trunk panel clips and rivits $10 Got my $75, Thanks! Jim

That's a pretty comprehensive list of the kinds of maintenance items that are known to wear out and you wouldn't want to consider sourcing at a junk yard. Good stuff to keep around for when, not if.

Be a good idea to order "any" German parts that are still available.
Pellican has the Lemfoerder BJ and Upper Control arms. Tie Rods Drag Link, Muffler Hangers. Instead of the cheap $1.50 - $3 ones, get the W107 hangers with the chain reinforcement. 107-492-00-44. If you can`t think of anything you need, I always need something, send the extras you padded the order with......to me. Charlie

Free shipping
I think there's been a change in the "Free Shipping" policy. It must be an item that has a truck next to it, correct?
Some other items are: Windshield washer pump grommet Antenna grommet Oil cap seal Power Steering lid seal --- what's the difference between thin and thick profile? Please don't answer with the obvious. Fuel filler cap seal Turbo oil drain gasket Turbo oil drain rubber washer/seal ---- between the pipes?? Turbo oil drain grommet And if you are like me with multiple cars, buy more than one. Now, where did I place that OM603 new vacuum pump?

This is one of those things you find out the hard way. You don't find it written anywhere. That's why I quit buying from Pelican. I don't like this type of surprise, and most people just say, " Oh well" but Pelican doesn't qualify how you have to buy in oirder to get free shipping. And I'm not going to start making lists of which parts are at which warehouse. I'm just going to buy elsewhere.
