Best place for Quality OEM Parts

Greetings,

I have multiple oil leak issues (crackshaft seal, valve seals, oil pan, oil filter housing, oil control solenoid), VANOS Faults (Solenoid, camshaft gears, timing belt), drive belt, water pump etc. Dealer wants $14,500 for parts and labor. I only paid $5,500 for the car. So I'm going to do the work myself.

Where is the best place to get quality oem parts?

Thanks,
Rocky (2011 S Clubman, 3 door, Turbo)

I use realoem.com to look up part numbers, then check google for dealer parts sites to see who has the best prices. Sometimes I end up at a forum vendor, sometimes on a dealer site.

FCPEuro is also a good choice. Lifetime warranty on EVERYTHING!
