Clueless at AutoZone - 986 Forum - The Community for Porsche Boxster & Cayman Owners

If you own a German car, they have nothing for you at Auto Zone, Pep Boys, etc., in the first place. Seems a silly thing to discuss on a Porsche forum. When it comes to things automotive, the USA is a third world country and these FLAPS go where most of their customers have gone.

I'm pleased to find an exception in that NAPA has Liqui Moly motor oil.

Why subject yourself to this at all? I go to their website order what I want and have it pick up at store. Just give the clerk??? the order number and go.

On a side note though I was surprised and pleased to find Pentosin at O'Reilly the other day. :dance:

From ages 17 to 21, I lived at the local auto parts store. They were all gear heads and never took issue with my barrage of silly questions about my POS car.

Nowadays, I know a couple of guys that work at the chain stores, and they seem to know what they are talking about. There are some others though that I'm sure couldn't locate the engine in my car with a manual in their hand.
