Difficult-to-Get OEM Parts | Here Are Some Rare Parts You Might Struggle to Find for Your Vehicle.

Sometimes, finding some used OEM parts in high quality can be difficult, they may have high demand and low supply. 

Don’t worry! This post is not bad news for you, but rather a good one because almost all the parts that are considered rare and difficult to find are available at the Right Choice Auto parts. 

Being informed about the rarity of specific used OEM parts can help you be proactive and make more informed decisions about your car repair and potentially save them time and money in the long run.

1)  Electronics Control Module 

Used OEM electronic parts are especially difficult to find because they must be specifically programmed for the make, model, and year of the vehicle, and finding an exact match for a particular vehicle can be challenging. Additionally, older vehicles may have outdated technology, and used electronic components can be prone to malfunctions or issues due to their previous usage, which can impact their reliability and functionality.

2) Fuel System Components

Fuel system components are critical to the performance and safety of the vehicle, and any issues with it can lead to poor engine performance or even dangerous driving conditions. Fuel system components, such as fuel injectors, fuel pumps, and fuel filters, need to be calibrated and designed to work with the specific engine and fuel system of the vehicle. Additionally, fuel system components can be prone to wear and tear or contamination, leading to a low supply and high demand for reliable and quality used OEM parts.

3) Window Switches and Regulators

Window switches and regulators are essential components of a vehicle's power window system, and their failure can be a common problem for many drivers. Finding used OEM window switches and regulators can be a daunting task because not all vehicles have the same window switches and regulators. Each manufacturer may have a different design, and even within a single manufacturer's lineup, the parts may vary from year to year or model to model.

4) Instrument Cluster

It is difficult to find high-quality used OEM instrument clusters because they are often subjected to wear and tear over time, which can affect their functionality and reliability.  So they may not always be readily available in the market and locating a suitable replacement may require extensive searching. Even if a used instrument cluster appears to be in good condition, it may have hidden defects or damage that can compromise its performance — including incorrect or total loss of gauge readings, dim or no backlighting, LCD pixelation or no operation, and complete failure to turn on or communicate with the rest of the vehicle.

5)  Hydraulic Components

Using low-quality hydraulic components in your car can potentially lead to safety hazards such as brake failure, steering problems, or suspension issues. But finding high-quality used OEM hydraulic components can also be very difficult. They are also subject to wear and tear and can deteriorate over time due to exposure to harsh operating conditions, such as high pressure, temperature, and moisture. Over time, the seals and valves in the hydraulic components can wear out, causing leaks or decreased performance. This makes finding a used hydraulic component that is still in good condition challenging. That is why they may have had a limited supply but high demand.

Final Thoughts

Finding these used OEM parts can be difficult due to several reasons. Electronic parts, such as Electronics Control Modules, must be specifically programmed for the make, model, and year of the vehicle, and older vehicles may have outdated technology or used components prone to malfunctions. Fuel system components require calibration and are prone to wear and tear or contamination, while window switches and regulators vary by manufacturer, year, and model. Instrument clusters are subjected to wear and tear over time, and even seemingly good-condition ones may have hidden defects. Hydraulic components, subjected to harsh operating conditions, may deteriorate, and finding high-quality used ones can be challenging due to limited supply and high demand.
