Where around the Chattanooga area is the best place to get a quality master cylinder for my 88 325is other than the dealer? I'm not looking to have it installed, I'm going to take care of that, just looking for buying parts. Thanks.

Advance Auto Parts. I bought everything for mine there except the tanks and fuel distributor. You will probably have to order and get it the next morining.

Yeah, I went there and they told me they couldn't even get one. Maybe I should just try another location. The guy really didn't seem like he knew what he was talking about anyway. I'll try another location though, thanks.

They have a web site where you can also look it up and order for direct shipping to your location. Sound like you were dealing with someone who needs another occupation.

might have one, I purchased a brake master for my 85 318i from them a long time ago. I've had hit and miss purchased from autozone/advance, sometimes they work great and other's there have been problems

"IWannaBMW" if you wouldn't mind looking it up for me and letting me know something. I appreciate it. If you come up with nothing, I'll go with rs4pro3's website. Thanks for the responses. Oh and, which advance store do you work for?

If you can find it, could you send it to a store close to me? If not I could just come pick it up. Not really that big of a deal. I work in Cleveland at the Honda dealership, so it's not like it would be that far of a drive for me. Thanks
