Lordco Parts

I had a better experience at this location than the other two that I went to. I needed some light bulbs for my car, a jumper cable, advice on a jerry can and an ice scraper. Guy at the til was not only very helpful but he took the time to research some stuff out for me which was much appreciated.

Came here to buy some parts.
Parking is available in the lot next door. However, the lot is sloped and uneven, and there is a good chance you’ll scrap if your car is low.
The store size is smaller than most other locations, which also means a smaller product selection. However, they had the generic tools I was looking for.

Many mechanics I know use lordco for their parts. I see their little cars buzzing around delivering parts. When some things I need & I can do myself I too go to lordco for parts. Ive been to this one & douglas st in burnaby. Both pretty much the same service. Need a part see parts counter they look it up you pay at cashier & p/​u your part. Sometimes the dealer discontinue parts for my 94 chev van but lordco still has parts. Pretty good parts too. Example: Lockset $ 50 incl tax. Assembled in Mexico not China. Any place is better than China. If they stoop so low as to mix melamine into baby formula you can rest assure auto parts would be tainted w other crap to make it break down faster. Mexican parts I think are ok compared to Chinese parts. Still the part was cheaper than the dealers part which came fr China & no wonder it didnt last. Oh if you work for a company that has a fleet you might get a % discounted or try giving your mechanic as a reference. Just pay in cash & square off your bill. It would be wrong to stiff your company w your purchase or lose your job for being dishonest.

Not easy to find one of these on the way home from where I live and then I saw this one on 2^nd. I needed an air filter, and they checked the system the first time and didn’t have one, said they would order it in if I wanted it the next day, I told them not to worry about it. I come back 2 weeks later and the guy who originally was helping me still remembered me, and I was lucky they had one… but as they said, they were surprised too that they didn’t have one to begin with last time as it’s one of those air filters that most cars use.
They can also check their other stores to see how much stock they have instead of you making any wild goose chase. If your someone who likes to tinker with their own automobile and needs something, they probably have it, all after-​market but they will also give you alternatives when you ask, and tell you what the difference is. If you can’t find what your looking for the drill is to walk all the way to the back wall, there you will see a whole bunch of computer terminals and guys behind there, tell them what your looking for, they search their system if they have it, walk to the back to get the right part, bring it to you, send the invoice to the front of the store, pay, and your on your way.
If your an automotive student, I know you get discounts. I like their hours, cause you never know when you do need something here, and business hours just don’t do for myself when it comes to this kind of stuff. It’s a do-​it-​yourself kind of thing, and here’s where you start when it comes to automotive stuff… forget Canadian Tire. come here. Especially if your close to downtown. Parking, there are a ton of spots in front of the store, no meter, all free.

These guys are pricks.
I called four days ahead to reserve parts. They said they had them in stock and they would be waiting for me.
When I showed up, they didn’t have the parts. I located, that’s right, ME NOT THEM, the parts at another one of their stores. When I asked if they could deliver it to me the guy said, «Yeah, that’s not going to happen.»
They advertise delivery and won’t even deliver on a part when they fucked up.
Fuck these stupid assholes. Get your parts elsewhere.

You know, I gotta say I just received some of the worst retail service ever at this location. I popped in to grab a can of adhesive remover to remove some trim off my car. Left wanting to never go back.
I’m not going to go off on a tangent, but I just wanted to throw this out there.
Choose another location if given the opportunity.

Great wholesale to the public style automotive parts store, chain across BC… They are pretty helpful, I buy parts take them to my mechanic and save lots…
