Bad News

:frown: Bad news guys. The GM 25036663 TPS is now discontinued. There are still some out there. I have a few left. $35.00 shipped to your door. Limit one please. I take PayPal. PM me if you're interested. Thanks


Its hard to beleive that this TPS has come up discontinued. It was used on a lot of 3.8/3800 applications. There must millions of those motors out there. I guess we shouldn't take anything for granted on our cars anymore. First MAFs. Now EOS and TPS's.

Lately with all the parts we need being discontinued it makes me want to sell the GN and go in a different direction. As soon as a part is discontinued, suppliers that still have them quadruple the price of that part. Headlight bezels are one example. I could use a new pair but refuse to pay $375 dollars for a new set so I am sanding and re-painting my bezels.
You would think that a car manufacturer would have to be held responsible for supplying parts as long as the cars they made are still running.

You have to be kidding me - Ford an Mercedes Benz supporting 100+ year old cars? You thing the big three are losing enough money now?

I kind of agree with Turbo-Fun. Its always been my contention that the OEM are missing out on huge profits by not suppling parts for thier older vehicles. Think about how much money that Year One,Original Parts Group,National Parts Depot,etc make. I bet its in the billions. If the OEM's got into the game back in the 70's those companies wouldn't be around today. If you get the right people running those departments or divisions than you would never have to worry about loosing money. Another advantage would be the quality control. I hate buying a repro part that looks and works like crap. I aint going to be the schmuck that lays down big money for a restored car that has a crappy interior kit or improperly made moldings installed on it. I'd rather have the worn out originals, but than it wouldn't be worth as much.

It seems like everything is discontinued for these cars. i understand there wasn't a whole lot made like the camaros, firebirds, (which probably also use this tps sensor) berretas, etc., but c'mon, the need is out there for the parts. I am sure someone is going to step up to the plate sometime. Good thing we have a few vendors making some parts at least.

pm'd you turbofish, my wells tps recently took a crap.

I had always heard that the american automakers had to make parts available for up to 5 years after production, and that was it. Any truth to that?

I find it odd that the front air dams are still available at dealer (and are still very cheap) considering those where only used for 2 year production. They must have built lots and lots of them.

I got the PM. The only law that I know of says a manufacturer only needs to stock parts for as long as they offer a warranty. That was 3 years for our TRs so anything that is left we can feel lucky, I guess. 7 years on a new car. There's always a louphole hiding somewhere.
