WA Auto Parts blog, anyways jaunt on in Here you can buy, sell and dispose of car parts in Perth, Western Australia. In our yard, we have cars of all makes, models, and years. We need to determine how much value cars that have hit the end of their road life represent.
However, occasionally a car enters that brings such joy to our team. It’s not a rare supercar or classic car, but something even more valuable for our customers: a late-model popular car in good condition that they can part out.
The car this week is a beautiful 2016 Holden Cruze in Phantom Black.
Here at WA Auto Parts, the best used parts and spare parts suppliers in Australia, we have to tell you that a 2016 model is a great one to strip down. Why? We know that a lot of these cars are driving around Perth now. Most are past the end of their warranty period and their owners want cost-effective solutions to keep them running well.
A little accident meant a lot of money for one owner, while another. This Cruze yielded quite the large haul of genuine, unused Holden components and are here to rescue your sleeping one.
Check this out before you ever consider paying full price for a new part at a dealership. So let’s look at the amazing deals that are available for you through our wrecking yard in Perth.
The Significance Of This 2016 Holden Cruze
Holden’s JH Series II Cruze was a massive success. It was good-looking, packed with tech (MyLink, for example) and fun to drive in a modern sort of way. They’re fast, reliable and easy to drive on a daily basis.
But things happen in life. An insurance company might label a car a “statutory write-off” after it’s been in a low-speed accident, hit a parking bollard or even suffered an electrical issue. This is where we come in as a professional wrecker like WA Auto Parts. We don’t crush things we recycle them to last.
This black 2016 model had its rear end smashed. That’s great news for you if you’re willing to pay something close to the asking price, because it means that the engine bay, both valuable front panels and the complete inside of the car is in exactly perfect condition.
These are not pieces from a 20-year-old, falling apart car. These are new, low mile, inspected and tested parts.

The Wrecking “Hot List”: Groupings of Parts That Are for Sale
This is what it all comes down to. The professional disassembling process has already started, and the telephones have begun to ring. This is the full list of the “hot” parts we have in stock.
The Powerplant: 1.6L Turbo Engine and Otherstuff
This is not your normal 1.8L engine. This is the more powerful and desirable 1.6L Turbo engine, itself a variant from an already strong offering in the lineup. This is the answer if your Cruze is slow, smoking, or has a transmission slip.
Fully Tested 1.6L Turbo Engine: A complete engine with low mileage, bench tested for compression and fully inspected.Unit is sold as shown in the picture. This is the best heart for a total swap, and it will save you thousands on a potentially shaky rebuild.
What makes this engine sing is the turbocharger. We checked ours for shaft play, and it runs fine.
6-speed automatic transmission: the part that breaks a lot on newer cars. This drained and checked low-KM unit works perfectly as a replacement, shifting smoothly.
Your engine has the genuine fan assembly, starter motor, alternator, AC compressor and radiator. Buy the OEM original, not some cheap aftermarket crap that’ll break in six months.
Inside, tech and comfort: a complete interior with MyLink
This is probably the most desirable section of a modern Holden. MyLink touchscreen will no longer respond? Is your Bluetooth not working?
Holden MyLink — fully functioning, lab-tested head unit and specific touch screen for the Mylink entertainment system. This fix would cost thousands of dollars at a dealer. Recover everything from music to navigation and phone connection in one go.
Complete Interior Seat Set: Is your seats are torn or stained, or has the driver seat been broken? The front and rear seats on this car are all clean and new, so it will feel like a completely different vehicle once again.
Instrument Cluster — Are the Gauges Not Working? Are there burned-out pixels? We have the actual instrument cluster rewired and operational with low KM.
Steering Wheel, Airbags: Our steering wheel features audio and cruise controls. We also have a complete set of un-deployed, real airbags (for the steering wheel, the dash and sides), so you can receive a safe professional collision repair.
The Perfect Match: Outside Panels in ‘Phantom Black’
Panel beaters charge a fortune to match a modern metallic or pearl paint perfectly. It’s the most expensive and irritating thing you can do. What is the answer? A factory-painted with real panel.
Doors: All four of the doors are in excellent condition. There isn’t an individual dent or massive scratch. They include everything necessary, such as glass, window regulators and switches.
The bonnet is in great shape. Just a straightforward bolt-on replacement for that dented or hail-struck bonnet of yours.
You can get the flawless Phantom Black guards for left and right front.
Front Bumper Assembly – Complete assembly containing grille, fog lights and all internal supports.
No cracks, fading or leaks of the headlights and taillights. A fresh pair of bright, clean headlights will not only change how your car looks but, more importantly, allow you to see better at night.
Our black electric side mirrors are similar, and they come with lights that indicate they’re on.
Part One: Motive: Tires, Wheels & Suspension
Never drive on wheels that are bent, broken or scratched.
2016 FACTORY 17″ ALLOY WHEELS – Complete set of four factory alloy wheels from this 2016 model. They’re in great condition and would be an excellent upgrade from steel wheels or a fantastic replacement for your busted ones.
Tyres: The wheels feature a decent set of road-legal tires with plenty of tread, saving you even more cash.
We have the complete front and rear suspension along with the brake calipers, rotors, and ABS module. If your Cruze “clunks” over bumps or has a loose feel, these low-KM parts are ideal to resolve that.
Why should you trust WA Auto Parts with your Holden parts that you don’t need anymore?
Sure there are other places we can get parts if you’re in Perth but WA Auto Parts is not just a junkyard. We are a full auto parts store and we always make our customers first.
Factory OEM Fit: A used part from us is the same part that Holden made, designed, and constructed for your vehicle. It’ll always be the perfect fit. You no longer need to struggle with inexpensive, weaker components from other companies that don’t suit.
And the best part: It’s much less expensive. Most of this stuff is high-quality, real-deal parts (50 percent, 60 percent and up to 70 percent less than what a dealer would charge for a new one). You can keep that money.
What we do We operate quality control and testing. Our reputation is built on trust. Our repairmen, as a result, don’t cut deals with a hammer on parts. We dissect, inspect and stress-test each of the major components. We inspect the panels for not-so-obvious damage, power up the electronics and check for engine compression.
If you want to be a world-class recycler, you should be a car wrecker. When you buy a used part, you prevent a perfectly good one from going to waste and use less energy and raw materials that would have gone into making a new one.
