    Rule where I live: rusty hole --> no MOT for you.
    Same for: crack in windshield, broken headlight/taillight, broken glass, door not opening.

    Fix this THEN get an appointment for a MOT.

    If your turbo die while revving --> car with poor maintance. Your fault, your problem.

    Ishit failure. Thought repliyed to you other guys.


    So your changing an indicator bulb, but as your arm is rubbing up theradiator you notice coolant leaking out, but it stops when you let go.


    Your in a rush, so you say nothing. Nor do you post on DK about it.

    The car also needs another part, so you order it and sent customer on way.

    few days later car comes in for part, but it the wrong part from the dealer.

    You grab your iShit and photograph the two parts, takes 10 seconds, but the customer moans your playing with your iShit
    when in reality your saving everybody hassle


    Do you smile when you think abiut the radator or do you laugh out loud?

    So your playing with your iShit and ended up looking at DK Member Obdmasters website, but you end up whilst fighting said iShit you hit the. "Text Obdmaster" option, so of course you simply send the word "iShit". As its a tempory sim he has no idea where it comes from


    do you say something, or wait till he sees this post?

    1) *HOT* bird from the parts deptment not seen head nor arse of her since

    2) Obdmaster - cant rember my inbox is steaming full.

    -----------------/----------------------------------------------------

    ON TOPIC:-

    So car comes in short notice, needs a part, so you ring Meat City Car Parts, hoping to get the hot bird, no such luck.

    they have the part, but can't deliver for 3 hours.

    your going on your lunch, near the parts place, its YOUR TIME, not your company, but there's a chance of meeting the hot bird, what do you do?????

    looks like eurocarparts on Saturday ?
    I can help you but only if you want me to help you
    All the questions should start from what car, what year, what engine is what fuel. What are the symptoms of the problem. Only then is what you know, what fault code, live data, what you have done.

    B:If 'hot bird' is there jump C:
    else jump E:
    C:start a loooong talk about tde part you're after and offer to buy her a coffe/beer/martini/whatever to have the time to finish
    ( the discussion )
    D: lunch with "HOT bird" => END
    E:just lunch Go to A


    The only issue with this ...I Really hope you're a thin man...and your lunch brake is long enough...


    remembered.....

    So car comes in, horn not working , you trace fault to underhood fusebox, open it to find a tiny bit of green.
    you scrape it off, still no go , you know full well the customer will do his nut, not want to pay anything if it don't work.

    so you ponder whilst going to local shop where you see "pot hole les" breast feeding a shovel, do you


    1) scrape a LARGE piece of green shit of 'pot hole les's' battery, stick on curcuit board
    Of car with no horn to Show customer

    2) just tell customer module has had water in it and its fkcued


    What do you do?

    So car comes in needs 2 tires but you suggest the owner has 4 due to the 4x4 system.

    you keep the 1/2 worn tires. Two years go by the customer calls you up, he has ran over a drain cover and shreaded 2 tires which are now the depth of his old tires you ended up using for plant pots.

    ON TOPIC:-

    The customer REALLY IS A GENUINE VICAR.

    do you sell him his old tires back or fit 4 new ones due to the 4x4 system.

    tip more profit and less hassle selling him his old tires back to him.

    what do you do??????

    WHAT WOULD YOU DO:-

    Your 9 posts away from 20,000 but your trying to make post 20 k special ,
    but of course there's dick heads to whine at for passwording files, your inbox is 100% full for months what would you do?


    ON TOPIC:-


    Punter brings a car in for you wire up an aftermarket rocket launcher, you pull out the OBD socket 4, 16 and 1 for power and ignition feed.

    you connect it up, park out side set to 'Russia' press red button, nothing.

    so you drop dash to find you accidently got power wrong way round.
    You sort it, still nothing, you spot 1 amp fuse blown. You only have 10 amp in stock.

    you stick the 10 amp in, works enough to fire 10 rockets, then dead.

    Of course you swap the good 10 amp for the blown 1 amp, what do you do next:-

    1) admit to it hand in pocket buy new controller
    2) tell customer it fired 10 times and died
    3) as above but told customer to take it back to halfrauds.com.

    (he only brought it last week)


    thanks guys.

    Bet someone can delete All MH's posts and he'll be happy.....


    There is one condition ....in the process of 'system failure' the 'system' would 'fail' his download count




    Pretty sure that somewhere in this forum there is a thread called -what will MH write for his XXXXgazillion post.......
    Couldn't find that thread....maybe is just system failure....or is it ishit failure.....??
