That’s correct. Finding one is difficult.

True. I found a guy. He does all my work, now. I pay him mobile mechanic fees, but I drive to him. He's made a chunk of change for sure. I also get to keep my car well maintained. Dealerships and shops can suck an egg.

An old mechanic once told me "A good mechanic doesn't have repeat customers because he fixed it the 1st time. But because of that you will have new customers all the time."

I see lots of recommendations 🤘🤘

Not true purely subjective

​@@johnrios3451true they fix the radiator right this time and when they need their fuses checked or something they may probably think of the person that was respectful nice and explained things probably not the rude dickheads that are just trying to say it's your alternator or something when you came in for an oil change

And the fact he post this on YT where thousands of people could easily called if he scams or does dishonest BS could ruin his reputation in seconds. Honest workers aren't scared of being fully transparent with their work.

Also he tells what the readings mean before he equipment obtains the results. So it helps with good faith esp when he laid it out the way he did

Ya think Lol

It cost a couple bucks to do the head gasket test, but cheaper than a head gasket, unfortunately many people overheat their cars and it will turn into an engine rebuild not long after a good over heat

Hell Yuh!!

If you can get one that's prior service or fleet worker that's where it's at. They were always looking to fix the problems, not make them up because they don't get paid extra the more they work.

That’s why I’m glad my buddy went to school and opened his own shop . Along side my handy man work we trade off and can provide an honest service on both ends ! 🎉

@@brickonyouthe problem with fleet vehicles is the fact that they want you to dedicate time to only them and no one else and expect a turn around of 1-2 days on each vehicle .

You can find them in every country except in usa

A very rare find. I've had so many bad lying ass hats. Charge me outrageous amounts. Had a hyndaui dealer ship tell me my car needed to be realigned. It's so bad absolutely needs done. I said we'll that's funny because I had it done in ozark on Monday. The 3000 dollars worth of work he was recommending I turned down. He suddenly didn't want to talk to me no more. The engine filter and cabin filter replacements for almost 400 dollars I said he'll no. The next mechanic cost me over 1000 to get the ac fixed and they had several thousand dollars of work needed done also the same filters with them was gonna be 200 dollars. Their problem is they underestimated me a woman cause I'm not stupid. Spent 34 dollars at oreillyauto and had my son spend 5 minutes putting them in. So screw your lying jerks.

Yeah but those kits dont always show a head gasket leak right away, ive seen them be tested 4 times before they show a leak after the car has been driven and died multiple times. Hopefully whoever said it was a head gasket misdiagnosed it. A 5 gas analyser would tell you more definitively.

​@@fabianherrera5427maybe from running it 5 times with the problem going probably made you blow a head gasket

No, its the difference between an honest person and a scammer, they probably would charge her for a head gasket job, do the radiatorr leak and tell her its all fixed instead of like 400 bucks shell pay like 2k

If people know they can trust you word gets around fast. I tell everyone about my mechanic.

I use mine for my business when buying vehicles as he is in a big market and I live rural. So better prices and worth the money for less headache as he is knows what I need to pass state inspection snd doesn't cut corners.

Keep it up homie

I am a woman and yes it does happen a lot. Not just cars. I don’t get it so much because I know too much. There are some advantages to being a woman too. I’m never afraid too ask stupid questions because I’m not expected to know. It has definitely saved me many times, getting mechanical help in random places around the world. People are more likely to offer help because again, they don’t expect me to know how to fix it. I guess I also look non-threatening, so I’ve been offered rides and places to stay along the way.

Yea for sure. If a midget is scaling down the wall on a rope escaping from prison...would that be a " little condescending?"

I'm a Plumber as well. Almost daily I hear things that other "plumbers" have told my clients that are so dishonest. Telling them they need to spend 2k$ when it's a 100$ problem.

Fr some shops are scummy and the dudes only know that much because they’ve been working the same place for years. I don’t mechanic unless it’s for farm work or personally changing parts but just the basics almost qualify you to be a mechanic 😂

I’m high asf I read this too fast and thought it said “black people” 🤣🤣🤣🤣I’m crying yo

Why does nobody think good shops exist or theyre rare? With the internet and youtube, it rakes 5 seconds to fact-check a sketchy mechanic. You'd have to be an idiot to pull the same scams they did. Do you doubt they changed a part? Ask for your old parts. They're legally obligated to honor that request.

Especially people with no knowledge about the problem. Too many times, people / companies wanna charge you more or recommend something you truly don't need. Which is a crappy way to operate. I get it you want to make a profit, but scamming people into services they truly don't need is a very unethical way to operate.

@@outthetrunk3326 yeah it is. I worked at Pepboys as a kid, and they basically pushed us to do this BS, and I never got promoted because I wouldn’t do it, and was very clear about that. Another kid who worked in the next bay to me, he was an 🫏 hole, borrowed my tools once and left them all over the floor and went home, and that was the last time he ever got anything off me. But anyway, he would always try to sell people stuff they didn’t need. And (not that it’s any better, but) not talking like rich people in BMW’s, I’m talking like high school kids and little old ladies in 20 year old Buicks and stuff, who clearly didn’t have a lot of money. It bothered me so much, I would usually try to discreetly pull them aside and tell them they didn’t need any of that, to just get what they came here for, and find a more reputable shop next time. And usually they really appreciated it and a few times even tried to give me $20 or something for being honest with them. I got fired from that job for supposedly “stealing” or “poaching” work from them, when a friend and coworker of mine needed a wheel bearing done on her car, and it was screeching like a SOB. Pepboys wanted like $350 labor, plus the part, which was like $100 something, and that was WITH her 20% employee discount! And this was back in, I don’t know, 2014, 2015 maybe? She couldn’t afford it on the BS wages they paid us, that was like 2 weeks pay for her (she worked part time) so I agreed to do it for her for $50 just being nice. I stupidly did it in the parking lot after sweeping up and closing, and got fired the next day. And you bet your 🫏 I filed for unemployment and collected every dollar I could from them while working under the table for the next 6+ months lol. They were the worst. Haven’t bought a thing from them since.

What I've come to find is it's usually not the mechanics themselves per se... its the big companies that push on them HARD to get more money from customers or lose their job.

Is cool to try to teach/"empower", but i did tire service for years... majority of customers will look right at you and say "i dont care, fix it!" Or some variant of that. 😅

This is how a real person works. Regardless of skill

Being a auto body tech for 30 years and doing my own mechanic work I guess I didn't realize how dishonest people were. 🤷 It would NEVER cross my mind to rip someone off like that?

@@whatsit2ya247 if that is true, I commend you. Unfortunately, though, auto mechanics are right up there with lawyers and politicians as being known for their corruption.

Unfortunately there are many mechanics that would have told her that it was a head gasket and charged her for that while only fixing the radiator leak.

Exactly what I was thinking, still good people left in the world.

Hell nah, he could've made a shit ton of money off her. L. 🤷‍♂️

EVERMORE ♾

Please be specific. You people have dreamt up thousands of gods. 2nd question, you can't seriously believe that any one of them are real considering how odd it is that humanity has even dreamt up "multiples"? God says his message is universal, but he didn't give MOST of the people that have ever lived on this planet that message. Google says over 100 billion people have lived and died on the planet. I'm inclined to agree. 10 billion right now, who knows how many from 1900 to 2000.... the numbers just get even more HORRIFIC the further you go back. So many people that your god and the gods of people around the world neglected to share their "life saving" wisdom with. There was a quote I saw on the Donald Trump assassination video. "The secret service was so incompetent, it borders on criminal". That's how I feel about all these deities. So so so incompetent, I see it more as criminal. I will never forgive any deity for taking my family and friends.

Hi, Retirement Mechanic, nice to meet you!

You don't really ACTUALLY retire from being a mechanic. 😂 I'm sure you still fiddle around and fix stuff all the time! (But congrats on the retirement! I bet it's well deserved!)

What does being a Retirement Mechanic entail?

@brianemond9263, sickens me that individuals, shops and dealerships rip people off like that. I recall one instance where a dealership told a customer that the "...reason her AC would shut off after a couple of minutes was due to a bad compressor so it'd be $1,200 to replace." Yet an independent shop owner actually looked at the live data and DTC's and determined it to be a ~$40 sensor, replaced and worked perfect. Now imagine if she let the dealership either replace the compressor and still comes back in because the real problem was never fixed and this time they replace the sensor and just say "It's all part of the same system so both items had to be replaced...." OR what if they never even replaced the compressor and just replaced the sensor and all worked fine and she assumed, "Ok they replaced the compressor for $1,200 now my AC works fine, good job!" -_- It's just disgusting, I can't imagine how many BILLIONS of dollars vehicle owners have stolen from them by dishonest "Mechanics/shops/dealers."

Yes can't believe how most "mechanics" take advantage of the people that don't know the problem with their cars.

He just DOXXED her to the whole internet 😂

I mean, if this guy wasn't straight up with her knowing that this was gonna go on YT, he'd probably be an idiot, so he could still be as dirty as that handshake he gave her.

Most mobile mechanics are honest. They aren't employees who get paid by how much they sell and do, they are independents who get paid by making a solid relationship, good work, and honesty.
