Parts and Tools
At Sweeney’s garage we only use top quality parts supplied by reputable manufacturers
OE (Original Equipment or Genuine BMW)
These are the parts that you get EXACTLY as if you are walking up to an authorized dealership and buying a part at the parts counter.
OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer)
OEM parts are parts that come from the same factory that makes your Original BMW parts, but they are boxed in their respective brands.(Example: Oxygen Sensor BOSCH Part #13231, which cross references to: BMW Part # 11 78 1 735 499). These parts are sold directly from the manufacturer to the suppliers or retailers and not through the BMW Dealer network, and usually means savings for the end consumer while still having the same OEM standards that the vehicle manufacturer specified.

Aftermarket
Aftermarket products are from manufacturers that do not supply to BMW in any shape or form, it is important to note that its not necessary that aftermarket parts are inferior. In general, there are 2 kinds of aftermarket products.
The first kind is a cheaper replacement that provide affordability to consumers, these may be the same quality as the OE/OEM parts or could be a little inferior to the OE/OEM products. A lot of customers like to purchase non-critical parts like air filters to save money, as long as it is a good reputable brand, you should be good to go! (just do your research!)
The second kind are considered upgraded parts, a very good example is the aluminium thermostat housing for an E36 BMW, the original BMW plastic housing is prone to failures and the aftermarket aluminium eliminates this problem. In this case, most of our customers prefer to purchase the aftermarket aluminium housing for better longevity.
Sweeneys Garage use in most cases the best quality parts available from a very well regarded aftermarket supplier, a big percentage of the parts supplied are of the OE or OEM as described above, if you would like the original manufacturer’s parts fitted to your car please ask our garage manager
