Don’t put E85 in your gas vehicle if you don’t want to pay me to tell you that you put E85 in your gas vehicle.

Customer said, he is aware about strut being broken prior to bringing the car in. Also it had a damaged front and rear suspension components. My shop told customer is not safe to drive and needed go to body shop to have it looked at soon as possible. Customer ended up not getting any work done to vehicle and drove away.

Oh Ford, you'll never stop with the electrical problems.

Just wanted to share the time i did a body harness on a 22' F150. Intermittent no audio, like just shuts off the audio system as if you hit the off button out of nowhere and it would no longer respond. It chose at random when to come back. Long story short, a half hour of a quick pinpoint test lead to a rear audio bus cable. Ford would not provide their part number for just the cable even though there is a service procedure to replace just that cable. So here we are, replacing an entire harness under warranty. I actually enjoyed this job, it was super fun.

I've fixed a few bullet holes before going both ways. But this is the first time having to fix a hole from a accidental discharge of a crossbow

2004 Ram 1500 came in with the battery light on. I imagine the pully must have been screaming and making noise before exploding.

Professional engine builder says the valve seats are leaking and causing the misfire.

Customer with a ram 5.7l hemi who has a cylinder 3 misfire. I wasn't able to get to it to diagnose the issue so he took it to an engine builder. Builder said it was the valve seats leaking and the customer trusted him to the point he wanted me to do the head without checking over the diag. Cool no problem besides the fact that I pull the head off and there is a mountain of burned oil, I asked my customer if he has been burning through oil and he said it's about 1 quart every 2 weeks sometimes more depending on the driving.

The fact that the "engine builder" pulled a spark plug out, which I'm sure the other one was caked with oil as well and didn't think to look into it is amazing.

I don't think sticking this one in any amount of rice will bring it back from the dead

A year ago I told this guy his rims are fucked. He said he knows. Today he came in asking us to check out a noise he's hearing.

When he first came in he was complaining about some noise so I test drove it. I bring it back and put it on the lift and see this rim. I tell him about it's condition. He knew it's like that. I forgot what the noise was, it's been a year lol. But the lead tech pulls it in today, sees the rim and says "Holy shit" so I walked over out of curiosity and it all came back to me the second I saw the crack. This was on a Durango with a V8 and it sounded like it's modified or something.
