Subaru outback 2009 White Wrecking

Subaru outback 2009 White Wrecking

In automobiledom, some models are just transportation, while others grow to be part of the family. They’re a loyal friend for the daily commuter, the weekend Bunnings run and the long-haul holiday journey down to Margaret River. In the state of Western Australia, that vehicle is the Subaru Outback and in particular, the third generation (BP series) version. It’s a real automotive Swiss Army knife, and for the past 15+ years working at WA Auto Parts we have come to greatly admire its well thought-out design principles and long-lasting workhorse performance.

As a top-tier used auto parts buyer and wrecker in Perth, we encounter vehicles from all the major manufacturers—from Japan to Europe to Australia. But there’s just something special about receiving a car with as devoted a cult following as this Outback when it rolls into our yard.

So today we present you with an opportunity to take a look at our newest member: 2009 Subaru Outback Premium in Satin White Pearl. As a complete car, its life is over, but it has a ways to go. It’s a tale of preservation, of mindfully collecting the best bits to ensure dozens of other cherished Subarus remain on the turnpike roads of Perth where they belong.

The Review & The Elephant in the Room

This 2009 Outback arrived not with the hushed burble of its signature boxer engine. The car was towed in, a non-runner with a tale that accompanied many Subaru enthusiasts – suspected engine fault. To the uninitiated, this may appear to be a dead end. It’s just the first chapter to our skilled technicians.

The first walk-around is very thorough. It’s not just damage that we are looking for; it is potential. This Satin White Pearl paint, despite being a good 15 years old, remained lustrous. The passenger side panels were straight, the rear bumper and tailgate were dent and damage free – and all four factory alloy wheels looked to be in good condition.

From here we went on to the Subaru specific stuff. The frameless windws on all four doors, which was a characteristic of this generation, glided down. We pressed the colossal factory sunroof into service, and it reared up and slid back without so much as a hiccup. Inside, the cabin was something of a time capsule. The black leather interior was a rare and pristine addition, with the MOMO wheel showing only light wear, and the optional 6-stack CD player decking popped to life with ease.

And now we have to talk about the elephant in the room: THE MOTOR! This era of Subi’s 2.5L EJ25 boxer engine is a workhorse but does have one well-documented weakness with the head gaskets. This seemed to be the issue in our diagnostics. Most wrecker’s would simply classify the engine as scrap, however we are not like most wreckers at WA Auto Parts.

Every part of it is important to us. We would never offer this engine as a running ‘drop-in’ unit, but just imagine the haul of spares for an adventurous DIY man or professional workshop. The engine block itself is good, the heads are good reconditioning candidates, and all those ancillaries—the alternator; the power steering pump; the A/C compressor; the ignition coils; the sensors—were tested workign items ready to solve some other Subaru owner’s woe. That level of transparency is our business model; we don’t think it’s fair to hide what you’re getting in your food.

Picking the Best Parts – The Premium Option

Once that inspection was finished, we went about meticulously taking apart our Premium model and preserving the best bits.

The Interior Upgrade Package: One of the first things we did was gut out all of the interior. To the owner of a run-of-the mill Outback or Liberty wagon, this vehicle is everything you expect or want in an aspirational luxury model. We salvaged:

The Full Leather Seats: Heated fronts and neat rear bench, all carefully dismantled out and wrapped up.

The MOMO Steering Wheel: A real, leather-wrapped steering wheel with audio and cruise controls, is noticeably nicer to hold.

The Premium Audio & Climate System: I have tested the 6-stacker head unit and dual-zone automatic climate control unit then removed it, ready for a plug-and-play in to your appropriate model.

The Sunroof Assembly: This is a big time win. We pulled out the whole sunroof cassette — the glass, the motor and tracks as well as the headliner. It’s a tricky but coveted role.

Symmetry AWD Gold: Engine may have been a bit fragile, but the rest of the drive train was rock solid. After the knock, the 4-speed Sportshift auto gearbox was unobtrusive and responsive. We drained its fluid and found it to be clean, free of pollutants—a good sign. The gearbox, as well as the tailshaft, driveshafts and aforementioned hand grenade-strong rear diff were all carefully extracted. These are Subaru’s Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive system essentials, and if you ever need to maintain one of these components, it’d be essential to have a source for tested reliable parts in order keep these cars safe and capable on the road.

The Body, Glass and Wheels: The straight un-damaged panels from the passenger side and rear were carefully unbolted. The rear hatch, including its wiper and spoiler, was removed. Frameless doorglass was not available and we removed the heavy glasses and checked for scratches before putting in inventory. Lastly, the factory 17-inch alloy wheels did come off and cleaned up nicely to be swapped in for a trashed set on a later or older model.

The Selling Point: A Savvy Pick as a Modern Classic

Who would buy a used part for a car over 15 years old? For a modern classic owner, it’s the best choice you can make.

Firstly, there’s the cost. A replacement from a dealer, if it’s even available, can be sky-high. From us, you can buy a quality, proven OEM part for a fraction of that. Secondly, it’s about authenticity. You won’t have to compromise on the fit and function of genuine Subaru parts is you opt for a regular old auto supply store, after-market part.

Last, it’s the most sustainable choice. Every bit that we are able to recover is a part that does not have to be manufactured, and saves an absurd amount of energy and raw material. When you select recycled parts, you are doing your part to help the environment with less waste and keeping our planet clean.

This 2009 Outback Is A Catalog Of Opportunities

This one car has now produced a vast amount of high-quality juicy automobile parts. Here is only some of what we have now in stock on our shelves:

Interior: Full Black Leather (Heated Fronts), MOMO Steering Wheel, Sunroof Assembly, Upgraded Head Unit, Dual Zone Climate.

Ford Ranger 2016 White Wrecking

Ford Ranger 2016 White Wrecking

Here in WA some cars are more than a car to get around. They’re instruments of work, business partners and admission passes to adventure. They are part of the landscape, caked in Pilbara red dust, or working through the tight laneways on a Perth work site. The Ford Ranger sits squarely at the top of that list. It’s the undisputed king of new-school ute, a machine designed for hard yakka and weekend getaways.

But what of the workhorse that can no longer run the race? And for more than a decade, WA Auto Parts has been finding out. We believe even when a vehicle has been taken off the road one of its most valuable parts can go on to have a second life. Being a Perth-based quality supplier of used and second-hand auto parts, we are just extraordinary because when other see a wreck we may see the potential and value.

Today we’re cracking the back on how that process works. Come on out to the yard and as you can see we are very excited to welcome our most recent arrival – a 2016 Ford Ranger PX MkII. This isn’t an obituary for a written-off ute; it’s the birth story of hundreds of low-price, high-quality parts that will keep other Rangers on the road for years to come. Welcome to the guaranteed lowest prices in town on a phenomenal range of goods.

The Assessment: Not Just a “Wreck”

So, this Cool White Dual Cab Ranger didn’t drive to the stand on its own. Courtesy of [Mod Edit by Cal] Scroll Parentsmodel 12 It was a statutory write-off to us due to being the innocent victim of a rollover. To the layperson, the buckled roof and pillars spoke a terminal tale. But for us, this is where the happy-hour treasure hunt starts.

Our lead tech, Dave grabbed his clipboard and started his systematic walk-around. A vital first step of a job learned from years of taking everything apart, from Japanese Kei cars to American muscle. It is automotive autopsy — a process of deciding what can be saved and given new purpose.

“The roof’s a goner, obviously,” he said, and began taking notes. “But look lower down.” He passed his hand along the driver’s side doors. “Straight as a die. No impact here. Glass is good, mirror’s intact.”

He continued his circuit. The front end? Untouched. The potent 3.2L turbo diesel engine reclined beneath ‘em as if they were a passing thunderstorm. The rear tub has a few scratches in the liner — evidence of an honest working life — but the tailgate was straight (its handle did its job) and there was even a reversing camera, still perfectly positioned. The inside of the messino was in great shape, sheltered from the worst of it.

This initial assessment is everything. Provides us with the ability to look past the damage, and form an excellent perspective on remaining life of the car. This Ranger wasn’t just a hulk; it was also a hoard of real Ford parts, and our mission was to strip them with the respect and diligence they had earned.

The Drivetrain: Harvesting the Heart

As a Ranger owner, the beast of your vehicle is the revered 3.2L P5AT 5-cylinder turbo diesel engine. That is after all why so many people buy these utes—its low-down torque, its reliability, and its towing muscle. Getting a healthy one is our primary goal.

Before any spanner turns the engine bay it’s where the work really starts. We connected our state-of-the-art diagnotic reader to the OBD-II port, looking for DTCs stored in your engine’s ECU. The report was clean — an excellent sign.

Next, the crucial test. We drained the fluids, hooked up a tiny gas reservoir and turned the key. The big 3.2L lit up at the first turn of the key with that classic 5-Cylinder burble. We fired it up, brought it to temperature and Chapter II Listen2 close listeneing for any egregious sounds of discontent, watching the tail pipe for smoke and a steady idle. It performed flawlessly. With only a tad more than 112,000 km on the clock, this engine was barely broken-in.

The automatic 6-speed transmission was tested with the same severity. We tried everything, Drive, Reverse, Sport mode—and every shift made was smooth and for a purpose. We also inspected the 4×4 system and shifted the transfer case into 4-High and 4-Low to ensure it worked just as well.

We gave the go-ahead only when all of these tests were cleared. We then have to remove the wiring harnesses, fluid lines and mounts with our mechanical team. The rest of the engine, gearbox and transfer case was hoisted out cleanly. This turn key, tested and warranted drivetrain is now just waiting to be a solution for that person looking at either a catastrophic engine failure or the high cost of rebuilding their transmission saving them thousands of dollars.

Ford Ranger 2016 White Wrecking

Beyond the Engine: Saving the Good Bits

Now that our mechanical heart is out of it harm’s way, we focused on the rest of the car. An udern ute is a maze of wires, toughened panels and luxury interiors, and we’ll harvest them all.

The Tub, Tailgate, and Exterior Panels: The ute tub is one of the most frequently dented structures on a Perth worksite. A new one from the dealer can make your eyes water. This Ranger threw up a straight, well body complete with factory plastic liner and tie-down points. The tailgate, which they removed and will pop into the works just fine. The four sequences of doors were unbarred, all intact. You can buy them in complete form (glass, regulators and speakers) or bare shells should you wish to retain your own window gear.

The Tech and Interior Comforts: Today’s work ute is a rolling office. This particular Ranger was an XLT, and it featured the desirable SYNC 2 multimedia setup. The 8-inch touchscreen, which served as the command hub for navigation, audio and phone calls was tested and removed with its modules. This is a very popular upgrade for owners of lower spec models with the standard radio.

  • The interior itself was immaculate. We salvaged:
  • A full complement of seating: Clean, supportive and rip-free.
  • The steering wheel: All of the cruise control and audio buttons work.
  • Whole dash assembly and Centre Console: A large number of items from air vents, switches through to console bin and lid etc.

They are ideal parts for updating a tired interior that has had a few too many dusty boots and spilled coffees in it.

Wheels, Suspension and Brakes: Original full set of Ford XLT alloy wheels were replaced. They had the usual scrapes, but they were straight and sitting on respectable all-terrain tyres. And even the suspension in its standard form (front struts and rear leaf springs) was fabulous for any owner wanting to put his hacked-up ute back to stock condition.

The Outcome: From One Ute Came a Thousand Solutions

The process is now complete. The stripped-out carcass of the white Ranger, which has had all its value removed from it, will be depolluted by our responsible end-of-life disposal partners ready to be recycled. But its legacy is now lining our shelves, archived and available.

From one written-off car come hundreds of unique solutions. The engine in question is going to revitalize another Ranger. The straight door will repair a crash victim’s ute. The SYNC 2 screen will add some modern tech to the older model. It’s precisely why we run WA Auto Parts. It is the most sustainable, cost-effective and smart way to keep Western Australia moving.

We are wreckers of all makes and models, with plenty of parts available for your car, whether it’s an older car or a new one at our yard. This Ford Ranger is a beautiful example of the we treat and prepare each of our vehicles.

Kia Rio 2012 Red Wrecking

Kia Rio 2012 Red Wrecking

Every car has a story. It’s scrawled in the scuffs on the door sill, the barely visible coffee ring on the centre console and the steadily growing numbers on that thing called an odometer. For some cars, that story comes to an abrupt end. A lousy bounce, a mechanical breakdown, an unlucky crash. We think differently though, the end of one story is just the start of many new ones at WA Auto Parts. And it’s a reputation we’ve been established on for over 15 years here in Perth.

Today, we walk you around and show you how one such car got from concept to reality: this bright Signal Red 2012 Kia Rio that recently came rolling into our facility. This is not a tragedy, but a transformation: of a “wreck” into an asset for drivers all over Western Australia.

Welcome to WA Auto Parts, your leading used auto parts buyer, seller & wrecker in Perth. We’re not just a store; we are auto recyclers. We find potential in every vehicle from around the world including Japanese, European, Australian and Korean cars. From cars, 4WD’s and Ute’s to commercial vans, we aim to rejuvenate great components. This little red Kia Rio is an example of how the process works. So crack the kettle on (not that we care, it’s too late now), and let’s get muddy.

The Arrival and Initial Assessment

Upon its arrival at our Maddington auto recycling yard, it was obvious to us all that the no longer a whole car. And it’d been hit in the front end pretty good. The hood was bent like a piece of paper, the radiator support crushed in and the driver’s side headlight destroyed. To the uninitiated, it appeared a write off ready for the crusher.

For our expert staff, however, this is when the hard part starts. This is a treasure hunt.

Dave, our lead technician (who may have taken more cars apart than most people have owned) was going to first evaluate the situation. This is a painstakingly, almost forensically, detailed process. He marched its outer boundaries, his eyes passing over each panel, each piece of trim, every sliver of glass.

“We lose the front, there’s no doubt,” he said, holding a clipboard. “But look here.” He indicated the passenger side. “The door is straight. No dings. The a mirror assembly is flawless, signal and all. The rear passenger door? Same story. Which is welcome news for the Rio owner who’s been sideswiped in a car park.”

He moved to the rear. The tailgate was clean, the spoiler shiny and the back glass in one piece. The tail lights were clean, and the rear bumper really only had minor scuffing that would no doubt polish out. The odometer showed just over 145,000 kilometers — certainly low by the car’s age. This told us that the parts of the universe that weren’t part of the crash probably had plenty more life to live.

This initial walk-around is critical. We can establish an initial parts list and make some sense of what the car is capable of. It’s the difference between viewing a wreck and seeing a dozen future repairs for other Kia owners all at penneys on the dollar as to what new parts cost.

Kia Rio 2012 Red Wrecking

The Teardown: Part 1 – Saving the Inside

At last! Upon completion of the evaluation, the laborious task begins. “Interior is always our starting point. It’s the most vulnerable part of the car, and maintaining its condition is essential.

The cabin of this Rio was a shocking good condition. Both the front and rear seats were rip free and had no major stains. They would look almost new with a professional clean. Our crew unscrewed them with care, surrounded them in protective plastic and stacked them to add to inventory. A mint set like this is treasure for anyone not wanting a run down interior.

Then the dashboard and centre console. This is intricate work. You can’t just pull and rip. Each screw, each hidden clip, every wiring harness requires precise unplugging. You want to take the entire assembly off without anything chipping or breaking. We salvaged:

  • The HU: Random factory CD player/radio; works fine. Great for someone who had an original unit that went bad.
  • The Steering Wheel: The airbag was in tact (an important safety check), and the steering wheel audio controls worked fine also.
  • The Gauges: Everything is fully functional, clear and present and ready to be dropped in.
  • Centre Console, Door Cards and Trim: Each panel was removed, thoroughly cleaned and examined. Even window switches and gear knobs are retained, because we have learned from experience these are the very parts that break to irritate car owners every day.

By the end of Stage 1, the car’s interior was reduced to a bare metal shell yet our shelves were stacked with quality, cost-effective cabin parts that are set to breathe life into another Kia Rio.

The Teardown Part 2 – Panels, Lights and Glass

With the fragile inside out of risk, we go along to the outside. And here is where the juxtaposition of the worn and unworn geographies gets even more stark.

The unsmashed doors on the passenger-side were meticulously taken out, including all their innards—regulators for windows and speakers and locking actuators. We test everything individually before we can put our stamp on it. The electric side mirror was also pulled off, the motor checked and its case polished.

The tailgate was next. Uninstallation of a modern tailgate is a two-man operation. It’s heavy, and it includes a lot of wire for the rear wiper and brake light, as well as to power the licence plate lights. We removed all that stuff carefully and then unbolted the hinges. This one assembly yields a dozen possible parts to keep as spares.

Finally, the lighting. The rear tail light assemblies were flawless—no cracks, no moisture. They were unbolted, their bulbs examined and the units are cleaned and offered for sale. These are hot items as a little tap between the eyes of the rear bumper can so often be anywhere from hundreds to over a thousand dollars for new parts and labour. Providing a tested recycled, OEM part at discount prices is the WA Auto Parts way!

The Teardown: Part 3 - Heart of the Machine

Once there, you are at the last and most technical part. The front-end impact totaled the radiator and A/C condenser. But the engine and transmission, pushed well to the rear of the initial site of impact, were a good sign.

Our mechanics ran a few tests. We inspected the engine oil for metal shavings and transmission fluid for discoloration or burning. Everything looked clean. The powerplant, a dependable 1.4L petrol engine (G4FA) was considered to be salvable either as whole implementation, or valuable parts thereof.

The engine and transmission were methodically unhooked from the driveshafts, exhausts and wiring loom and the whole lot lifted out of the engine bay in one assembly. Once in the stand we could cull those forever-necessary ”bolt-ons”:

  • Alternator
  • Starter Motor
  • A/C Compressor
  • Ignition Coils
  • Throttle Body

The 4-speed automatic transmission was pulled apart and checked; unsurprisingly, it was perfect. For somebody that’s faced with an expensive transmission rebuild, a fail-safe (low kilometer) used unit like this can save them thousands.

The alloys (standard 15″ factory) were pryed off as well. They had a little bit of curb rash, as in all likelyhood there would be, but we’re straight and true. Clean them up and they’re a great upgrade for someone with steelies.

Kia Rio 2012 Red Wrecking

The Result: Multiple Solutions, All Out of One Car

The red Kia RIO’s journey is over. What was a single vehicle going down is now hundreds of solutions. The empty shell is to be properly depolluted and sent for metal recycling – ensuring that nothing goes to waste.

But its best parts live on. The straight passenger door will mend another family’s car. a new looking taillight will allow someone to pass their roadworthy inspection. Here’s the reliable alternator that will get a commuter back on the road.

This is the awesome power of automotive recycling. It’s good for the environment, it’s sustainable, and it delivers amazing value to our customers. It’s all about the win-win-win and it’s at the heart of everything we do here at WA Auto Parts.

Toyota corolla 2011 Grey Wrecking

In the motoring world, cars that demand you take notice of them boast flashy aesthetics and roaring engines. And then, there’s the Toyota Corolla. It’s the Australian road’s unsung hero; the quiet achiever. It’s the car that you can rely on to start every single morning without drama, get you to work in the middle of rush hour traffic; it deals flawlessly with school drop offs and never whinges about compromise. And this isn’t just a car, but for many families thousands of Perth it is that reliable, indispensable backbone of life.

As the most trusted auto parts buyer, seller and wrecker in Perth; it is our duty to ensure that these heroes stay running on road.

Toyota corolla 2011 Grey Wrecking

“Vehicle as a whole reached end of its service life in a side-impact collision with the driver’s side. The car’s insurer canceled the insurance and labeled it a statutory write-off after sustaining enough damage to signal its end, but it’s an ideal case scenario for a recycling outfit. The front and all its components, including the mythic engine are untouched together with the car’s rear and passenger side. What this also means when it comes to the S system is that there’s a gigantic stockpile of mint-condition, undamaged parts.

Volkswagen polo 2011 Red Wrecking

Volkswagen polo 2011 Red Wrecking

There’s something magical about a good European hatchback. It’s a mix of smart design, robust build quality and a driving experience that feels like it’s on another level. And here in Australia, one small car that has also long followed this way of thinking is the Volkswagen Polo. It is the car that shows small doesn’t have to mean basic. It’s for the driver who, in their daily commute, wants some Teutonic engineering, sharp handling and some class.

At WA Auto Parts we share your passion for quality engineering. Horley Motor Spares has been Western Australia’s Premier Supplier of Quality Used Motors and Parts for 15 years Our customers rely on us to have access to the best used auto parts on the market, which is why that is what we provide.

Tales of the City: Say hello to our 2011 Polo Donor

This isn’t some no-name car sitting on a hoist — it’s a car that has had a life. Performance This 2011, 5-door Polo 77TSI Comfortline was a nifty little city whip. Just picture it zipping through the traffic in Perth, being more maneuverable for parking, and a safe solid cocoon for its owner. With a snappy turbocharged engine and rapid-shifting DSG gearbox, it was the epitome of modern small car technology.

Volkswagen polo 2011 Red Wrecking

The time as a complete car came to an end after a common and famously pricey problem struck – the DSG mechatronics. The bill to fix it was too high for the prior owner. It’s a golden chance for the wider Perth VW community. Since the rest of the car to its good powertrain, solid body panels and impeccable interior are all so well preserved, it’d be a shame to just throw them in the crusher when other polite Polos could put them to use.

Here are the donor vehicle’s vital statistics:

  • Make: Volkswagen
  • Model: Polo Comfortline
  • Year: 2011
  • Series: 6R
  • Body Style: 5-Door Hatchback
  • Colour: Flash Red
  • Engine: $1.2L TSI Engine (Turbocharged Stratified Injection)
  • Transmission: 7-Speed DSG Automatic
  • Odometer: 145,000 km

Any question you have, our team of in-house experts is more than happy to answer! Feel free to contact us direct on (08) 9358 1392 for your parts requirements.

The Crux of the Matter: 1.2L TSI Motor

Volkswagen made an innovation in small cars with the TSI engines. This 1.2L Turbo is a small engine producing big important effective punches above its weight and on minimal sips of fuel, it’s power play with an echo. 145,000 well-serviced kilometers and this engine is in rude health.

Our full service at WA Auto Parts is more than just an oil check. We warmed the engine, ran it up, and listened for anything out of kilter. It ran whisper-quiet and smooth. Next, we plugged our VAG-compliant diagnostic equipment into the car to download any stored or historical fault codes from the Engine Control Unit (ECU), but it was showing a clean bill of health.

Available Engine Parts:

Polo New $1.2L TSI Engine Assembly: A tested ready-to-install engine, ideal for a Polo with significant engine damage. This is German engineering that you can rely on, at a fraction of the cost to buy new motor.

Engine Ancillaries: A complete range of original high quality Volkswagen spares including the alternator, starter motor, A/C compressor, ignition coils and high-pressure fuel pump. Opting for a pre-owned OEM part rather than a low-quality aftermarket substitute might offer increased longevity and the correct fit.

Details about the DSG Gearbox

The DSG 7-Speed gearbox is a work of art, it delivers slick shifts with mind blowing efficiency. They are complicated, however, and the mechatronics unit is a common trouble spot. As with this vehicle this is the problem, so we are passing it on to you.

DSG Mechanical Components: When the mechatronics unit and all of its electronics fail, you are left with a mechanical gearbox that is still in perfect working order. These parts are a must for any workshop, or folks looking to do a bit of DSG surgery themselves.

Gear Shifter Mechanism: The entire shifter, a notorious source of interior wear, functions without issue.

If you need help with DSG parts, call our expert team on (08) 9358 1392. We know these systems inside and out, and can get you exactly what you need.

Subaru Impreza 2009 White Wrecking

Well, it looks like a run-in with a car would do the trick as this one received heavy rear damage and was declared an economical write off.

Evolution of Fun: Symmetrical AWD and Transmission

Subaru’s longitudinal, boxer engine and Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive system are its signature traits. It has awesome grip and handles well, whether you’re negotiating a wet roundabout in town or exploring a lumpen-gravel road down the South of Cumbria. This car’s drivetrain was all there, and worked great in our shop testing.

4-Speed Automatic Transmission transmission shifted smoothly through the gears without any slips/jolts, and was sure going into drive or reverse. It is an ideal replacement for the old or broken gearbox.

Differentials: These are must-have on any AWD vehicle. Both are in great shape with no leaks or noise and will bring the balance to your brat back to life.

Driveshafts and Axles: We do have a complete set of axles and driveshafts, we have gone through them to make sure they are straight as well as the CV’s being in great shape.

Steering Wheel and Controls: The steering wheel is in perfect shape including the airbag. The basics – the windows switches, indicator and wiper stalks have been tested and are in working order.

Nissan Navara 2012 Blue Wrecking

Nissan Navara 2012 Blue Wrecking

We believe that every car has a story, waautoparts.com. Some are stories about daily commutes and school runs. Others are epic ventures written in mud and red dust. And some, including the bright blue 2012 Nissan Navara D40 that just came through our yard here in Perth, are at the end of their road as a whole vehicle but about to start anew as parts one by one.

For more than 15 years, we have been the reliable heart of auto recycling in Perth! We are not merely wreckers, we are automobile custodians. We know you can get the heartbeat of life left in each one, and we make it our goal to connect all of them with people like you who need a replacement used auto part. If you’re a DIYer doing your own job on the weekend, a service person whose customer needs to keep just one car going or a bloke off in his 4WD that doesn’t anything but exact replacements then we’ve got what you need!

But today, we’ve got a good deep dive on this car for you. This is no mere parts list, it’s a journey to aids success for all Navara owners in Perth and beyond.

Introducing Our Newest Arrival: The 2012 Nissan Navara D40

The Nissan Navara is an important vehicle in the Australian automotive scene. It’s the classic ute – a reliable workhorse during the week and a tough stallion on family outings through the weekend. This one, a D40 from 2012, is representative of that generation — famed for its mix of ruggedness and refinement.

Nissan Navara 2012 Blue Wrecking

This particular car came to us as a stat write off, a tale we hear all too often. But if a front-end bash means it can’t be registered again for road use, it also means the vast majority of its parts — from the strong engine to manicured interior — are otherwise preserved and up for grabs.

So let’s look under the hood at the specs, since as any good mechanic will tell you: The devil is in them.

  • Make: Nissan
  • Model: Navara D40 (Thai-Built)
  • Year: 2012
  • Colour: A stunning, deep Blue
  • Engine: YD25DDTi 2.5L Turbo Diesel
  • Transmission: 6-Speed Manual
  • Drivetrain: 4×4
  • Odometer: 185,000 km

185,000 km on a well cared-for YD25 diesel is just about run in. It’s a tip of the hat to its time on open WA roads and it says there’s plenty of value stored inside its mechanical bosom. Now, let’s roll up our sleeves and look what we have access to.

The Beast Within: Motor and Drive-Line Components

The YD25DDTi engine is a mythical beast as far Nissan owners are concerned. It has a reputation for being torquey and reliable, as well as popular among car builders, so it’s often chosen in favor of large 4x4s for replacements, or even conversions into other cars. At WA Auto Parts we perform a meticulous series of checks before removing any engine.

The engine of this Navara fired up on the button and ran sweetly with no cause for concern regarding any odd sounds, smoke or drips. We were able to test it extensively which is why we can comfortably believe and stand behind its quality.

Available Engine & Mechanical Parts:

YD25DDTi Complete Engine (prize) A low kilometre 185,000kms runner engine is ideal for anyone whose Navara has experienced a catastrophic engine failure. It’s an inexpensive way to get your ute back on the road without terrible expense of a brand-new crate motor.

Turbocharger: The turbo spun up nicely when we tested it, no major shaft play. If your Navara has lost that get up and go feel or a haze of smoke follows you, consider a good second hand turbo can bring back the performance your missing.

Ancillaries:All ancillaries including the bep solution.The lot has been tested and all are confirmed working. That means up to and including the alternator, starter motor, power steering pump and the AC compressor – that was blowing cold until the very end.

Cooling: Both radiator and intercooler (still needed for all that turbo power) are mint as well and ready to go in.

When you purchase a mechanical component from us, not only are you purchasing that part, but peace of mind. You are purchasing a component that has been professionally inspected and signed off on by our experienced lineup. Do not delay in calling us on (08) 9358 1392 to talk about your engine requirements.

Nissan Navara 2012 Blue Wrecking

Laying some Power: Drivetrain and Suspension

A Navara is only as good as how well it can handle tough going, and that ability starts with the drivetrain. This particular example has the desirable 6-speed manual transmission and sturdy part-time 4×4 combo.

6-Speed Manual Transmission & Transfer Case: The transmission transitioned smoothly through its gears and the clutch also felt stout. The TC selected nicely 2H, 4H and 4L Today is the day to scoop up for all those who have blown away their gearbox and want to go from automatic.

Diffs (Both front and rear): Just as important, so are in great condition on the 4WD model. Whether you’ve bashed up your set on a gnarly off-road trail or just need a particular ratio we have you taken care of.

Tailshafts and Axles: As with all things in the power department these links (and that’s what they are) need to be straight for the components of power to reach their destination true so good U-joints and CVs are a must.

Suspension Parts: Although the impact did damage the front-left suspension, you can still use these other parts to include control arms, shocks and leaf springs. Ideal for replacing old worn out components and getting your ute back to factory rake and handling.

You Only Get a Few Chances to Make a First Impression: Panels, Body & Exterior

Audi A4 2009 Grey Wrecking

Audi A4 2009 Grey Wrecking

Here’s something understatedly classy: an Audi A4. It’s a car that doesn’t sing its own praises, it just does everything – beautifully.” The essence of XF lies in its clean lines, flowing surfaces and fundamentally simple yet elegant proportions: this is landmark design. For Perth motorists who value the finer things in German engineering, it has been difficult to look past the A4 as the very definition of a luxury sedan.

The New B8 generation introduced in 2008 was a turning point. With its extended wheelbase, advanced new engines and the advent of technologies such as the S tronic gearbox, it was a significant step forward for even greater dominance in its segment. Driving one of these gorgeous beasts is an absolute pleasure, but as we all know, keeping a fine piece of European engineering in top shape can have its complications, when you consider the price tag on genuine dealer replacement components.

WA Auto Parts Our PhilosophyWe believe everyone should have access to the highest quality Euoropean products without the high price.Act Now!Reuse European EnginesAcce ss herePREMIUM EUROPEANSOURCE PARTS HEREAt WA Auto Parts, we understand that an easy way to find a good deal on new or used car parts is using tradies online.

Our Expert Assessment: This A4 came in with rear damage, which for our needs was perfect. The car’s heart and soul – namely the free-revving 2.0L T F S I (emphasis on free revving), the legendary Quattro drive train, lightning quick S tronic gearbox, full S line interior, as well as front + side body panels is unbroken and expose no damange. This was an obviously much loved vehicle and now these high quality components are ready to receive their second lease of life within another A4.

The Enthusiast’s Guide: A Deep Dive into What’s Out There

This is a hard to find chance to have original S line or Quattro parts.

Engine & Drivetrain – TFSI Power, Quattro Traction

2.0L TFSI engine is the pick of the range – punchy enough and more than responsible when it comes to fuel use. Ours is an excellent running unit with no problems, dust ’em off and swap it in to solve one of the biggest issues engines have.

7-speed s tronic Tranny & Quattro is a mean pair. Shifting is provided by the S tronic dual-clutch gearbox, which lays down shifts lightning quick and without any shift interruption. Combined with Quattro all-wheel drive, it delivers unbeatable grip and confidence in all conditions. New mechatronics/gearbox from dealer can bust the bank. Our tested and proven complete gearbox and Quattro rear diff rebuild service provides a common sense, affordable solution.

External – Body & Lighting – S line Advantage

With the S line package, the A4 goes from classy looking to purposeful.

S line Exterior Panels:We supply the full S line front rear bumpers, side skirts and S line badges. This is a full conversion kit for the standard A4 owner wanting a sportier, aggressive look. The panels are all straight in the gorgeous Lava Grey Pearl paint.

Bi-Xenon Headlights with LED DRLs: An iconic for this age Audi. These real headlights with the signature LED “eyebrow” daytime running lights are a substantial improvement over the stock halogen lamps in terms of lighting performance and commanding on road presence.

Single-Frame Grille & LED Tail Lights The grille we all now know and those full LED tail lights are pristine as well.

Inside, Electronics & MMI – The S line Cockpit

The S line interior package conjures a truly special, driver-centred environment.

S line Sport Seats Full front and rear S line seats upholstered in luxurious black leather, embossed with S line logos. These seats provide a lot more support and bolstering than the pistikus.

S line Steering Wheel & Trim: The 3-spoke, perforated leather S line multi-function steering wheel is in great condition. We also spec the brushed aluminium interior trim package and the black cloth headlining that finish off the S line design.

MMI Navigation System The car is equipped with Audi’s MMI (Multi Media Interface) system which includes coloured screen and handmediately mounted control knob. If you are handy, the entire tested assembly is available for repair/upgrade.

Suspension, Brakes & Wheels

S line Sport Suspension Designed by Audi: The S line kit features factory-lowered, stiffer suspension for crisper handling. The full struts, springs and control arms also are in stock.

Factory 18″ S line Wheels: A complete set of the classic 5-spoke S line wheels in an 18 inch variant that was offered as part of a package on these B8’s.

Hyundai accent 2012 White Wrecking

In an era of fickle automotive tastes, there is something wonderfully honourable about a car that just gets on with it day after day without ever complaining. The Hyundai Accent is one of the unsung heroes. It’s long been the natural choice for Perth drivers wanting a keep-it-simple small car design that doesn’t demand huge long-term investment.

For a new generation of drivers, the yard is the ideal starter car that unlocks the freedom of open roads. It’s the logical second car for a growing family, and a wallet-friendly daily commuter that simply will not fail you. The Accent has long been established as a model we trust, and the best value for money car too. These are cars that were built to run, demanding little more than regular maintenance in the process.

But even the sturdiest car will one day require a part be replaced. Just a slight error in the car park can have you coming back to find your bumper cracked, door dented or headlight shattered. Through years and kilometers, mechanical parts can just become „worn-out“. When it does, the expense of factory-fresh dealership parts can feel untenable in relation to the overall worth of the car, which may be a dilemma for many owners.

At WA Auto Parts, we’re convinced that maintaining your dependable Accent should be an economical venture. We’ve helping the people of Perth with their used auto parts needs for more than 15 years now!
