    i beg to disagree, pero i do not agree with this kind of approach. kelangan parin ng diagnosis. opinion lang naman po no harm intended :idea:

    1. knowledge of the subject(cars)

    2. history/experience

    3. Ethics

    4. how he solves problem--dapat specific or minor parts muna bago yun general. like sira lng pala yun ic eh sasabihin sira yun buong alternator ganun ba.

    5. malinis gumawa--- before and after check ng check. oil leaks check, all screws check, my screwdrivers check ect.

    --para lalong malaman dapat itest muna make a simple problem tpos pag diniagnose nya na complicated at mahal yun ah sigurado mananaga yun! like get a busted sparkplug or high tension wire.

    ---yun iba dyan sasabihin agad ay naku yari na overhaul na ito kaching kaching kaching $$$$$ im sure may nakaencounter na nyan. so ganun iwasan na agad yun mga ganito

    a good mechanic doesn't use the "remove the thermostat" technique to remove your overheating problem.

    saka pumapayag siya na ikaw ang bibili ng piyesa, kahit malugi siya.

    hirap maghanap ng ganun hehe

    natawa naman ako d2, kasi ganitong ganito yung kwento ng ofcmate ko yung ginawa ng driver nya sa kia carnival...at proud na proud pa ang driver

    eto ang istorya nako OT na ata to?

    mga peeps kwento ko lang ang kwento sakin ng officemate ko..

    may kia carnival sila na van...nag karoon ng topak nag ooverheat...
    sinabi na ng friend ko sa driver na nag ooverheat kaya dapat lalagyan ng tubig

    so one day while nag dadrive na ang driver nila at mag isa..kasi sunduin ata sila sa province...napansin daw ng driver na lagi umiilaw na redlight pra dun sa indicator na lapit na mag overheat...

    eto po ang ginawa ng driver nag park sa gasoline station nilagyan ata ng tubig ang radiator at tinanggal ang cable na link para sa indicator

    at syempre pag sakay ng officemate ko ask nya sa driver aba manong ok na ang temp ng radiator ng kia ah anu ginawa nyo?

    Sir tinanggal ko pa ang cable para dina iilaw yung sa indicator na yan! dont worry sir naglagay ako ng tubig...

    patay tayo...dyan...gusto sagasaan ng officemate ko yung driver nya

    You know he ain't a good mechanic when the first thing that comes outa his mouth is "Ay naku (scratching his head), malaking trabaho to...gagastos tayo dito.."

    Gagastos tayo? Eh bakit ako lang maglalabas ng pera?

    2 lang ang pinagkaka tiwalaan ko na mechanic at dalawa rin lang kilala ko

    sila ay sina Oboy Reyes ng Mandaluyong at Suerte Felipe ng MFI.

    At pareho sila na hindi pa kumita sa akin.
