Privacy & Affiliate Disclosures
Updated October 2026
We earn commissions from some links
Some of the shopping buttons on TorquedGuides are affiliate links. If you click one and buy something, we may earn a commission — at no extra cost to you.
Amazon: As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.
eBay: TorquedGuides is a participant in the eBay Partner Network and earns commissions on qualifying purchases made through our eBay links.
Commissions never change what we recommend. Parts are listed because they are a common, sensible choice for that vehicle — not because of what they pay us.
We don't sell parts — the seller does
TorquedGuides is a research tool, not a store. We never take payment, ship anything, or hold your card details. Price, availability, shipping, warranty, and returns are entirely the seller's responsibility, so returns and complaints go to them, not to us. We can't see what you bought or who you are when you use one of these links.
Once you click through, the seller's own site may place its own cookies and follow its own privacy policy. We can't control or speak for those.
We advertise with Google Ads. Google uses cookies to measure which ads bring visitors here, which pages they view, and whether they click a store button. We don't send Google your name or anything you type.
What TorquedGuides stores about you
Browsing needs no account and no sign-in. Here is the full list of what is kept:
- Your vehicle, in your browser only. Your last selected year/make/model and your saved garage (up to five vehicles) live in your own browser's local storage so the site remembers you next time. Clearing your browser data erases it, and it never leaves your device.
- Feedback you choose to send. The message and the page you sent it from are stored so the site owner can act on it. An email address is stored only if you type one in, and it's there purely so you can be answered.
- Abuse-prevention logs. To stop bots from hammering the site, we keep basic records of requests — when they arrived, how long they took, and an unrecognisable, non-reversible code derived from the requesting network address. These logs exist to block automated abuse, not to build profiles about people.
We don't run advertising networks or third-party analytics trackers on this site, and we don't sell or rent visitor information to anyone.
We're independent of vehicle makers and marketplaces
TorquedGuides is not endorsed by, sponsored by, or affiliated with any vehicle manufacturer, dealer, or marketplace. Names like Toyota, Ford, Audi, Amazon, and eBay are used only to identify which vehicles and which shops we're talking about — they belong to their owners.
Accuracy and safety
Guides are AI-assisted and generated for general information. Torque specs, fluid capacities, and procedures can vary by model year, engine, and trim, so always confirm against the factory service manual for your exact vehicle before you wrench — and a wrong spec can damage a vehicle or cause injury. We're not responsible for damage or injury from following any guide.
Questions
Use the Feedback button in the footer of any page and the site owner will see it.
