Hi and welcome to WA Auto Parts! If you’re here, it’s probably because you’re a smart car fan looking for a great deal or, more likely, a Mitsubishi owner who just had a really bad day.
There might have been a small accident in the Woolies parking lot. On a country road, a kangaroo might have wanted to see how well your car was made. Or maybe a key part, like the transmission or alternator, just decided it was time to retire, and now you have to pay for repairs that cost more than the car itself.
We all know what it’s like to feel that awful feeling in your stomach.
That’s where we come in.
At WA Auto Parts, we don’t just sell car parts; we also fix problems. We are the best place in Perth, Western Australia, to buy, sell, and wreck used car parts. Today, we’re happy to tell you that a new car has come to our yard: a black 2013 Mitsubishi. Outlander that is ready to be destroyed.
This isn’t just a pile of old metal. This car is worth a lot of money to the right person. You can get your own Outlander back on the road for a lot less money with a real, original (OEM) part than with a cheap aftermarket part.
The “Patient” is a Mitsubishi Outlander from 2013.
A car has a history before it gives up its parts. This 2013 Outlander was a dependable family SUV that could handle school runs, daily commutes, and holiday road trips. People liked the 2013 model (ZJ) because it was very dependable, got good gas mileage, and had a lot of space.
Unfortunately, this car got into a bad accident that made it a legal write-off. It won’t be driving on Perth roads anymore, but it still has a lot of life left. The best parts of it are now ready to give your Outlander a new lease on life.
Here are the important numbers for this car:
- The model is the Mitsubishi Outlander.
- It is now 2013.
- Black
- 5-Door SUV Body Type
- Engine: 4J12 2.4L 4-Cylinder Petrol Transmission: CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission) automatic
- Stock Number: WA-OUT13-B
- The Treasure Hunt: What Parts Are There and Why They Are Important
You can be sure that Mitsubishi designed, built, and tested the parts you buy from a professional wrecker like WA Auto Parts. They will fit, work, and last for sure. Let’s see what this car that someone gave us has to offer.
1. The first thing you see about the outside/body panels
When something bad happens to your skin, it’s so sad. A small scrape or dent can make your pride and joy look old and neglected. It can cost a lot to get new panels from a dealer, paint them, and put them up.
Front and back doors, as well as left and right doors: This car has a lot of doors that work. This is a simple “bolt-off, bolt-on” fix for a black Outlander. Don’t believe a panel beater when they say they can get the color “close enough.” Even if the color is different, a real panel is the best base for repainting.
Bonnet and Guards: The front of this car took the most damage, but some parts, like the guards, may still be in good shape.
The back of this Outlander looks great, with the tailgate and rear bumper. These days, tailgates are very complicated because they have lights, wipers, cameras, and locks. Buying a used OEM tailgate assembly can save you a lot of money. The back bumper is also ready to go and still has its original parking sensors.
Are your headlights cloudy, yellowed, or cracked? It looks bad, and it could also fail a roadworthy inspection because it’s dangerous. Our real Mitsubishi lights will fit perfectly, with no gaps, and give you the clear, bright light you need.
The first thing to break in tight parking lots is the wing mirrors. These Outlander mirrors are ready to be moved to a new home. They have indicators and electric adjustments.
2. Mechanical/Engine: The Heart and Soul
This is where the real value is. The engine and the parts that make it work are the most expensive parts of a car.
The engine (2.4L 4J12): Our team has checked out the engine in this car. If your Outlander has a blown head gasket, a stuck motor, or a lot of miles on it, this is the best choice for you. A full engine swap with a good, low-KM used motor from a junkyard like ours can save you thousands of dollars and give your car another 100,000 kilometers or more of life.
CVT Transmission: Let’s be honest, it can be very expensive to fix a broken CVT transmission. A complete, tested, used CVT gearbox from this donor car is a cheap way to get back on the road without spending a lot of money.
Alternator: Is your car not getting power? A used alternator that is in good shape is often more reliable than a cheap new one from an aftermarket company.
Starting motor: Do you only hear a “click”? We know what to do.
The radiator and cooling system: Heat is bad for an engine. We looked for leaks in the radiator, fans, and hoses on this car, and they are all good to go to keep your engine cool.
3. Parts inside: How to make your car feel like new again
You drive all the time in your car. A broken switch, a ripped seat, or a cracked dashboard can be a real pain.
The seats in the front and back of this Outlander are clean, as is the rest of the car. Do the bolsters on your driver’s seat need to be replaced? Did a cup of coffee or a sick child spill on the back seat? Getting a whole new set of seats can make your car feel like new again and raise its resale value.
You can get all the small parts for the dashboard and center console, like the speedometer, the lid for the center console, and the glove box. You shouldn’t have to deal with that broken cup holder or air vent that won’t stay open!
Head Unit / Infotainment: Is the radio screen flickering or not working? Installing the original Mitsubishi head unit in this car is easy, and you can get your music and Bluetooth back without having to do any complicated wiring.
4. Wheels, tires, and suspension
Potholes and curb rash are just a part of life in Perth.
Alloy Wheels: A new alloy wheel from a dealer can cost more than $800. We have a set of factory-made alloys for the 2013 Outlander. If you need a new wheel or a full-sized spare, this is the cheapest way to get one.
Suspension and brakes: The suspension is what makes a car “ride.” We have all the parts you need for the brake calipers, control arms, strut assemblies, and hubs. These are all real Mitsubishi parts that will make your car handle like it did when it was new: solid and safe.
Why should you get used parts from WA Auto Parts?
In a world of online markets and sellers who don’t show their faces, you can trust us because we are a local business in Perth. WA Auto Parts is more than just a yard; we are the best place to get used car parts and spares.
The biggest benefit is that you can save a lot of money. You can buy the same part that is already in your car for a lot less than a new one. This keeps your car on the road and your repair costs low.
OEM parts are better than parts that come from other companies. Mitsubishi engineers made sure that these parts fit perfectly, work well with other parts, and last a long time. There are no “close-enough” fits, and the dash doesn’t have any warning lights.
Tested and guaranteed: we don’t just take parts off the shelf and put them back on. Our skilled team tests every part we can. We look at the electronics, engines, transmissions, and alternators. You can be sure you’re not buying someone else’s problem because we offer a warranty on our parts.
If you don’t know what part you need, ask an expert. Our team has been doing this for years. If you call us, a real person who knows about cars will help you find the right part. An algorithm won’t give you that.
We are proud to be a big part of the recycling economy because it helps the environment. Every part we sell means one less part in a landfill and one less part that needs to be made. This saves oil, plastic, steel, and energy.
