Here we have a 2009/2010 Urban Cruiser in for a non-start fault. The customer states that he broke down after driving a few miles.
Got towed to a major garage by the AA/RAC only to be told that he needs a new crankshafti (obviously incorrectly diagnosed). To find out more, keep watching the video and let’s keep on improving!

Took my wife’s Aygo to a local garage that ‘ fits things quickly’😉. Major rattle in the exhaust, got quoted entire new exhaust and cat, minimum of £950. Took it home, did some reading, changed back box myself for £60 in 20 minutes. That’s 2 years and 2 MOT’s ago, been fine ever since.

an elderly friend took her car to a garage that fits things quickly a couple of years ago, she wanted her front brakes checking as the mot was due soon. She came out with a quote for nearly £600. I looked at the quote, they said she needed pads, discs, calipers and a fluid change, utterly ridiculous. A recommended mobile mechanic came out and fitted some new pads for about £80, car went through mot. I was incensed that a major national company would try and defraud an elderly widow.

My ex had her C4 Cactus fail an MOT on emissions & the garage quoted £1100 for supply & fit DPF. They didn't provide the 1st fail emissions test results, but told her to have it serviced by them & give it a good run (despite the fact she did above average mileage & used high speed dual carriageways daily). It failed a 2nd time & after arguing they eventually provided a printout of the emissions test & they did the wrong type for a diesel 🤦🏾‍♂️ Best part was, a brand new DPF from Citroen was £550 & they quoted 1hr to change, so a sub-£1k job. Every other garage I spoke to said 1) it wouldn't need a DPF given it's age/mileage & 2) that it was a Citroen only part but easy to replace due to easy access in the engine bay. When I took it back the 3rd time, having done nothing to it, it miraculously passed when I stood & watched them emissions test it. In short, sadly, most garages are dodgy 🤷🏽‍♂️

Things like this absolutely boils my pi$$. I learned my lessons 20y ago after losing an engine after a dodgy timing belt change-garge only put new belt on and left old tensioner on that seized few days later. After that it was Haynes manuals and friends advice, later KZfaq and I’ve been working on my cars ever since. Garages like that should be named and reported for fraud. Also nice to see younger generation using oscillograph, keep up the good work.

If you sprayed brake cleaner down the inlet in the first place and it started, that would have saved you all that time hooking it up to the diag comp and checking the crank and cam sensors. Then you would know it was fuel delivery problem.

Had to get an exhaust fitted urgently about four or five years ago. Ended up going to Quack Fit. They gave me the old spiel, "Complete exhaust and catalytic converter needs changing mate". Cost me 500 sovs. Immediately after having it fitted, whenever i went over a speed bump it sounded like the exhaust backbox was rubbing against the chassis,making a horrible noise . I took it back and told them . They put it up on the ramp and said they couldn't see anything wrong 🙄. I put up with the noise for a couple of years until it needed replacing again. This time i took it to a different garage and when they removed the old exhaust they told me the previous garage had put the wrong one on.

belter one for you, my mates mam, had a F reg mini, that the exhaust rubber failed on. The recovery didn't have one spare at the time, so he said Kwik fit is only up the road. So they recovered the car there. Kwik fit wanted to charge her for to replace the Cat. She went back to the recovery bloke, who waited with her, and told him, He said hang on! Its only needs a new rubber that's! and it doesn't have a Cat on it at all, due to the age of it. He said i tell you what lads, how about you take it back off there, and we will take it else where. They found another garage, and they charged her something daft like a £ 10 and did changed all the rubbers on the exhaust, She did tell them about kwikfit. The garage lads said they are well known for it sadly, and for charging customers and not doing services. Which i have read a few times on the car forums, and they have caught Kwik Fit out many times. Even a watch dog caught 10 stores out of kwik fits, put 10 cars in for service, and other bit and not one was touched.

obviously don't name and shame them yourself in the video as you'd be opening yourself up to a potential whole world of legal pain, libel etc, but get the customer to leave them a bad review on their google maps business pin and include photos of the damage they did to his seat and mountings, also the pics of the clearly-not-new fuel pump. At least then if other customers can see the evidence on the reviews they can make their own mind up before potentially experiencing the same fradulent practices.

That’s why people don’t trust Garages you’re best doing it yourself if you’ve got the skills .. I’ve got a LandRover discovery I was quoted £600 to replace my timing belt .. I just paid for the parts and did it my self easy job after I watched a video on KZfaq.. I also replaced the fan belt and tensioner pulley easy I was quoted £180 for that to be done so I’ve saved myself some cash plus I’ve learned something new

Owner should go back to the garage and ask them for a copy of the supply invoice for the pump parts they fitted, if one is available he should call the supplier and see if it has been returned to them. Though you have provided sufficient evidence that nothing in the fuel pump unit has been replaced and then take them to small claims court. Clearly complain to the Head Office or CEO of the business first.

I had a similar one to this a few years ago, A ford focus that would not start at times & pointed out to the girl I know that it was the tank pump failing,(common fault) after lifting the rear seat & giving the top of the pump a love tap!. As she wasn't local to me she went to some local mobile mechanic, Went to see her a few weeks later & the car was still not running despite of a pump being fitted, So I took up the rear seat to have a look & found a horror show, the floor pan had been totally butchered & bent to buggery probably with a blunt chisel & hammer, & then noticed that the idiot had fitted the fuel pipes wrong even though the connectors are colour coded!, So swapped the pipes over & away it went, Then made up a rather crude plate to cover the butchered hole & screwed it down, I don't think she will be calling on his services again!.

Hey guys nice fix, just for your own information, the fuel pump would never build pressure properly, if you look at frame 10:47 you can clearly see the fuel pump o ring has been assembled incorrectly, white sleeve goes on before the oring to stop the oring rolling down the pump and not sealing properly, probably could have cleaned this and put a new filter in and got this car running if the fuel pump tested ok :)

I got a free MOT with a major fast-fit garage through my insurance. During the MOT they literally cut one of my brake lines, failed the MOT, and tried to book me in for the repair. We know they cut the brake lines because my mechanic, literally the weekend before, had checked all the brakes after replacing the pads. I wouldn't touch them with yours.

I find your videos very interesting and informative, even though I have over 40 years in the trade myself. When I first started out in my career, the vehicles were so much more simpler and straightforward. The vehicles that you work on are so restrictive in terms of access and have a multitude of sensors etc. I noticed that you also complain of a sore back and I’m afraid it goes with the job, all you can do is protect it as much as possible. You have become a very experienced technician and have great diagnostic skills, which I think is one of the most important aspects of the job. Keep up the good work dude and I look forward to seeing more of your next videos 👍

You’re very welcome dude👍 Like you, I did a lot of bodybuilding back in the day and I remember doing ‘stiff legged dead lifts’ on reflection it might not have been the best exercise to include in my legs and thigh routine?? I think if you keep your core back muscles strong, it may well help you over the long term, and like you said a good quality belt would be beneficial. I served for 30 years in the military and 10 years with the fire service, so I don’t just dish out compliments unless you’re on top of your game. One of the biggest ball aches for us mechanics was a clutch change on the old Land Rovers, all the seats in the front had to come out and then a jack crane to lift it clear of the engine. The easiest clutch change was on the early Vauxhall Cavaliers, 20mins start to finish 👍

Firstly... brand new second hand? And that is the longest way to diagnose a fuel pump... Maybe "they" took the fuel tank off from under the car.. or did they???? Have you ever gone low tech with an avo and an amp clamp test voltage at the fuel pump then use the clamp around the live or earth to check current draw...

That gunk had to have come from somewhere. Next time - I would suck the fuel tank dry. Leave the fuel sitting overnight to see what settles out. I would replace the fuel tank's charcoal filter in case it is breaking up due to repeated overfilling of the fuel tank.

I was charged $1,100 for a new $200 battery and a $200 alternator. It didn't fix the problem. I did some research and it turned out to be a $26 main fuel relay. It took me less than a minute. PS: always ask for the replaced part back.

If I’m being honest, this particular vehicle grinds when going in to reverse even when fully on clutch and stationary- god knows why 🤷🏽‍♂️

Maybe they did replace the pump but it was a shagged 2nd hand one

names and shame them! if the invoice says the pump was replaced then they scammed and they have ZERO legal opportunity! by shaming them helps independent hard working guys like yourselves and others, and stops the proliferation of the big brands who just scam innocent people. if you worried about "legal recourse" just show the invoice on the video and say nothing! Good job guys!

Norwegian TV program took a volvo 240 into 10 garages for a full service. Oils filters belts plugs and valve adjustment. They secretly marked the whole car. Out of ten garages only two who did the job properly??? .
