I need to get a new OEM starter. Courtesy Parts sells it for $212, less $60 core charge. Anyone know of a better price? I don't want an aftermarket version from Pep Boys or Autozone.

 

Why wouldn't you want one from Pep Boys or Autozone?
I believe they are cheaper and come with a warranty unlike the overpriced one from the stealership.

You can get one from ebay like me. I got one for $30 used and came with 30 day warranty. Its been in for 3 months and no problems.

 

I understand people prefer to get the OEM to avoid any problems down the line.

I purchased mine from advanced auto parts and am enjoying the lifetime warantee. Maybe the starter dried up on me in the future due to how it was reman, but I know I killed it a couple of times and I'm glad I didnt have to shell out $150+ each time I killed it.

THe courtesy $212 - $60 = $152 is a good price. I was never able to find such a good price when I was in search of an OEM starter.

 

$188+60 core here

 

i bought a used low mileage one for $50 from a junkyard personally...
