I have to say I’m a bit disappointed by the video, I hoped he would show the replies and actually do something with it. That he doesn’t like Facebook mechanics as pro isn’t surprising at all.
I thought this was going to show the aftermath of someone following a troll’s advice. Like putting antifreeze in the engine to keep it warm in the winter. Or putting nails in the tires.
I agree but to be fair sometimes the issue requires a relatively simple fix
Sarcasm in its most sneakily savage form yet
Clutch alignment tool, 17mm key and a hacksaw - yup, enough tools to change the head-gasket xD
I can appreciate the amount of eye rolling that mechanics do as soon as anyone mentions “I read on the internet…”, I’ve said it before to a mechanic and could instantly see the “this guy’s an idiot” on his face. BUT!! Personally speaking, I feel forums etc have their place.
If I can google the symptoms and find other people experiencing the same thing, and can read how they went about sorting it or chat to them directly, I can at least have an idea when I get to the mechanic, and a bit of a heads up if the mechanic is a dodgey barstuard and tries to rip me off.
Somebody needs to learn how to type.
Ya well when you take your car in because it shifts funny needing a new slave cylinder and your mechanic tells you it needs a whole new transmission, its good to look that up and tell him before dropping 2 grand.
