As a Mechanic of 35+yrs, I am so glad I can pull cars off the road. I mean, I have had people "threaten" to phone the cops, and I'm like "Here you go!" with my phone. And when cops arrive, asses the situation, they look at the customer and say, "You're lucky to have this guy as your Mechanic! He just saved your life! Now stop wasting our time!" Have a great day, Sir! I do hope you, Mrs Just Rolled In, and little Just Rolled Out are doing well! And God Bless. o7

I've seen eyeglass screw stuck in the gap of an electric brake release that prevented releasing the brake. Prized it out with a pick and voila, no problems (lost the screw though, it went flying). And, of course, the 'phone in the gear shift well' that prevented the car going into park so they couldn't start it. Rather than removing the phone to answer my en-route confirmation call they just used bluetooth. I arrived, saw the car did not have an indicator for any gear I asked them to pick up the phone and shift it into N, then back to P. Started right up.

I will never understand people that have no problem driving around with a broken subframe, much less those that try to cover up the damage so that they can keep driving! That car is one bump away from unaliving everyone unfortunate to be in or around it. edit: besides which, replacing the subframe is likely going to be less trouble than trying to hide the damage with spray paint and foam. Sure, it'll cost some, but *not that much*.

Personally I believe that a brick makes a better air filter than a piece of cardboard. The one with the rodent nest on top of the cabin air filter, everybody just close your eyes and take a deep breath! LOL

I once had a mouse crawl into the blower and just died. The only warning was a sound when on. I stopped using the fan for a few days until I had time to look into it, but being summer, the smell quickly told me what was wrong. Had to take apart half the dash to reach the blower and remove it to remove a partially decomposing mouse on a 95F day. Fun fun.

I'm driving a small hatchback and the average over the last 7 years/70k miles has been slightly below 37mpg. Biggest factors in use are my right foot on the accellerator and using the airconditioning. My previous car was a bit worse, you could feel that one slow down when the airco went on.

Most people nowadays can't even walk and chew gum at the same time yet they all think they are auto mechanics. Unbelievable.

The Engine Auto Stop feature is kind of dependent on where you live and your gearbox. I’ve got a Škoda Octavia 1.5l with a six-speed manual and Auto (Hill) Hold and it’s nice to be able to stop on a slope, take the car out of gear and foot off the clutch and sit there securely until the lights change or traffic moves without wasting fuel. I’m getting 58 mpg (UK gallons, so about 48 mpg in US gallons). You really don’t notice it switching on and off at all, and you can override it manually if you want.

Lol that golf ball looked sad 'help, i'm stuck'

The golf ball behind the accelerator reminds me of the time a tin cup got stuck behind the brake pedal on a truck were I was the offsider. We didn't notice it until we started going down a very steep, very winding road. It is a very unique feeling when a fully laden truck is drifting around corners. We had to disassemble the break pedal to get it out.

@@tomgenitalia2537 "Pre-installed connector fits small (9x3) J-hook arms. For larger (9x4) J-hook arms, replace the pre-installed connector with the connector provided by snapping the middle arch onto the wiper frame's center post." That quote is taken directly from the packaging for the new wiper I had to get a couple of weeks ago (yes, I hadn't pitched the packaging yet, I don't clean out the back of my pickup nearly as frequently as I should) because the driver's side windshield wiper on my 2000 Dodge Dakota Sport had had the blade start tearing off dealing with ice. I admit, I forgot to replace my wipers last April, so I was kinda asking for it, but getting back to the point, BOTH of the windshield wiper arms on my pickup are the larger (9x4) J-hooks, NOT the smaller (9x3) J-hooks that most wiper manufacturer's pre-installed 'universal' connectors fit. It's a royal pain since I don't typically have a pair of pliers handy to help me get that 'universal' connector off to put the correct one on, so I'm usually doing that barehanded. As such, yes, there are two different sizes of J-hooks used for the front of a vehicle, though as a general rule both wiper arms on a single vehicle will be the same size, it's just that different makes/models don't all use the same size.
