If you need parts for your car, this is the place to buy them! They have a great supply and the…read morestaff is super friendly and eager to look up information on your car. On my recent visit, I went here because I needed a new battery. To be more specific, I just got a jump from my in-laws and was driving on a dead battery. Needless to say, I was planning to change the battery in the parking lot. The sales associate was very helpful finding which battery I wanted to buy. There are many different brands that are rated with different cold cranking amps (CCA). In case you didn't know, as the weather gets colder, it is harder for a battery to function. For example, you've probably noticed that when it's really cold, your car takes a few seconds longer to start or may not start at all! Having a battery with a higher CCA rating such as 800 CCA ensures that the battery will function when it's like ten below zero. The standard rating is 600 CCA. Given our frigid winters here in Iowa, I prefer to buy a battery with at least 800 CCA. After I chose my battery, which was around $120 that included a six year warranty, the sales associate offered to install it for me! This is a great service for individuals who are not familiar with cars. Also, the batteries themselves weight about 40 pounds so having someone lift and install them is very helpful. He grabbed the new battery and put it on a cart with all of the required tools. He wheeled the cart outside, and he changed the battery. He also recommended buying some battery terminal rings, which are green and red cloth discs that go around the terminals. These rings and the associated liquid coating that is applied to the terminals are designed to help reduce discharge. I have used them in the past and decided to use them again. Besides, they are only a couple of bucks! Lastly, the sales associate took my old battery, which will be properly disposed/recycled. Advance Auto also has some great sales every now and then. You don't need the coupons as they have them posted outside the building or along the counter. Lastly, if you are doing any of your own car work in their parking lot, the sales associates are really cool about letting you use their restroom to wash up afterwards. Also, their restroom has that orange, mechanic's soap that gets all of the oil and crud off of your hands! Overall, a great place to buy all of your car parts and accessories!

Their "new" booster was a rebuild or worse yet, a mis-manufactured POS. Slave bore was completely oversized, pedal went to floor. Paperwork was generically put in telling to change spring and plugger, which was there. Some Num nuts put 4 nuts, not locking on the studs which would cause the holder out, off the firewall. Really, really disappointed! Plus, I don't like the fact that you have to hold tongue out of the side of your mouth, close one eye to mount the damn things.

Turns out, she was sold the wrong size battery (Thanks, Jenny!!). Jenny was unhelpful and rude stating that it was too cold for them to install the battery. Yes, it was a very cold day (hence needing a new battery) but OReilly advertises free battery installation. Our family uses them for this very reason and have always had a quick, positive experience. Ted is the best thing about this experience today!! He deserves a promotion, bonus and more. What a kind and genuine employee. Thank you Ted for helping today and making things right! One for Jenny.
