Winter ready 39 www.aftermarketonline.net OCTOBER 2025 TPS, supplier of Volkswagen Group approved genuine parts to the independent motor trade, is helping garages get their customers’ vehicles winter ready by offering its biggest ever range of car parts. The new Brands at TPS parts offering will see an expansion of the range of products available through TPS’s 83 UK centres, as it partners with industry-leading third-party brands renowned for producing high-quality mechanical parts. The Mahle, SKF and ZF brands are available to customers now, with product ranges from the additional phase one suppliers, Bosch, Hella and Valeo, coming soon. For the initial launch, TPS will offer up to 2,000 third-party parts, with plans to increase this to over 10,000. This winter, through TPS, garages and workshops will have access to more parts than ever before, and the ability to keep more customers’ vehicles on the road. Catherine Baker, TPS head of group parts operations, said: “We’ve always been genuine first and that doesn’t change. TPS remain dedicated to genuine as our primary offer, but we can now offer a one-stop-shop for our mechanical customers’ needs. We also offer Quantum Oils and Consumables, which are hugely successful and well loved by our customers.” When prepping a vehicle for winter, maintaining maximum engine performance is key to preventing unwanted breakdowns and fuel and oil filters play vital roles. As part of Brands at TPS, Mahle offers two types of oil filter, its spinon OC filter and the OX range. In winter, keeping the vehicle moving is essential and transmission supplier ZF Aftermarket has the full range of products to ensure vehicles are never stalled during the coldest months. These include a full chassis programme, including rubber to metal, shock absorbers and some drive line technologies through their SACHS portfolio. In addition, their TRW subbrand also offers a wet and dry braking program, including pads and discs. There are also further braking components available from Bosch — along with spark and glow plugs — when they join Brands at TPS at the end of September. Meanwhile, the TPS Quantum Range offers antifreeze, batteries and lighting products. For batteries, TPS’s Tier 1 supplier GS Yuasa’s products come equipped with specially developed internal components. TPS’s Quantum range of bulbs come from renowned supplier Ring, who have over 50 years’ experience in the aftermarket. Visit https://tps.trade/ brandsattps for full range details.
