Bumper to Bumper Radio, the car guys on KTAR, 92.3 FM in Phoenix, AZ, broadcast every Saturday from 11:00 am to noon. On this show, Dave Riccio of Tri-City Transmission in Tempe, AZ talks about where you can find original factory or aftermarket replacement parts for your car or truck and which to avoid. Also on this show:

• Why some manufacturers do not offer replacement parts of their own.
• Information about replacing parts in your vehicle across different makes.
• Common parts you will need to replace during your vehicle’s lifetime.
• Why aftermarket parts can at times out-perform the originals.
• Ford F250: One of my fleet vehicles is in need of a catalytic converter. We were quoted over $2k at one shop and only $600 at another. Is there a noticeable difference between the converters themselves?
• Chevrolet Silverado: What information can you give me about the Interstate Batteries factory?
• 1990 Honda Prelude: I’m having trouble finding quality parts for my vehicle. I’ve had issues with my transmission fluid leaking as well. How can I fix up this vehicle to a reliable performance level?
• Nissan Armada: What advice can you give me at 160k miles for my vehicle? We frequently take long family trips.
• 2005 Chrysler: After replacing the timing kit, my vehicle is still idling rough. What other replacements or services could you recommend to me?
