[urq] USA guy going to ITaly , ins and out of buying $800 wheel bearing housing there

[steven j]

I have to blow vacation time and might go anywhere in
italy.  Can I go to an audi dealer there, expect to
have the part within a week and bring it back to USA
and save a bundle?

I'm looking for the left strut & wheel bearing
housing.  It probably weighs 50 pounds.

I'm clueless overall but a nice guy at UPG-CT was
saying Audi USA is ripping us off big time and
sometimes parts that are NLA are that way when the
parts are available in europe.

I'm clueless on problems i might have checking in a
front-end part as luggage - or customs or
import/export issues.

I figure I'd print the page from ETKA - and point, as
I don't know how to say 'strut and wheel bearing
housing' - in Italian.

If it's better to do in France & Germany - I'd have to
find an Audi dealer close to the italy border.
