I've been a mechanic almost 50 years. It's nice to see an honest one who knows what he's doing. There's a lot of idiots out there who wouldn't know a bad head gasket from a leaking water pump. Nice job.

A lot of mechanics would have just replaced the head gasket then told her she also needed to replace the radiator. You seem like a genuinely good and kind person

I LIVE IN A PLACE WE USED TO CALL GREAT BRITAIN . Keep up your good work it's great to see an honest Car Mechanic so so rare these days. Colin.

Gave my daughter a 4 runner that started using coolant. Mechanic said it was a cracked head. I started checking and found An oil cooler on passenger side of motor that only needed a gasket! Saved 6500 he had quoted!

Hard to see a cracked head without removing it, unless it's badly cracked on the outside.

this guy is refreshing to say the least . keep being honest and your reputation will guarantee more work than you can handle u til you retire . i worked as a carpenter and remodeler for decades at very wealthy peoples houses on bainbridge inland wash. during a conversation with one of my clients , she told me the reason she and her friends continued to hire me for years was because they trusted me 100 % . your reputation is everything .

Good man. She will tell all her friends. Excellent work.

That’s easily a $600+ job by any other shop…bravo to you sir for your honest and affordable service!

That's how you gain and keep a future customer. As well as create new ones. Quick money isn't always the best.

Very refreshing to see this man’s honesty and work ethic!

This is a rare thing to see anymore a mechanic that's honest and kind. Thumbs up 😊

I dont know why this video come up in my feed but, im glad i did. You have such a wholesome attitude. True gentleman

You are a gentlemen sir. Honorable mechanic is a beautiful thing when you find one. Nice video

I retired and spend my days doing handyman work helping old people. Many would not do the work as they don't have the money. If they have the means I charge $25/hr. No travel time and I round down most days. Keeps me busy and I love helping people. This man will be blessed for using his skills to help people.

Good job bro, honest,affordable and knowledgeable, three best traits of a mechanic!!!! Honesty is so important!!!!

Hey Matthew, you are a very decent guy and obviously a professional! Good job man.

Nice to see a genuine, honest and knowledgeable mechanic, well done. Hey….customer was cute too!

Honesty is the best policy..Good job Matthew Parker!

So glad to see there are still honest mechanics out there. About 10 years ago my grandparents had their mechanic come check my 97’ Cavalier for a leak. Turned out it needed a radiator. He charged them $50 for the visit and $600 for the job that took him about 45 minutes. The radiator was only $64. After that I swore off calling mechanics and did a lot of learning and online mechanic classes so I could work on all of our cars and do side work. It’s the honesty that keeps people coming back, and it’s not hard to be fair and not scam people.

Good Dude..honest work😊

Bless you for doing the right thing!

Great to watch this especially as I got royally screwed yesterday by an A/C technician. In the long run, this great guy will get repeat and loyal customers because he isn’t out to screw everyone. Especially those who aren’t mechanically savvy . Thank you .

Fantastic gifted mechanic, works on any car. We need more honest mechanics like him, plus he does service calls!

Woo no big teardowns. A customer of ours had us install a leather kit and door lock actuators on a 99 F250 7.3 Powerstroke. We got it done and ready to pickup, when the fuse that supplies power to the pedal popped. The potentiometer had shorted out. Took me a hour or so with a scan tool and the customer running around looking for the part that went bad. We did not charge him for that diagnosis or to put the parts on.

workin class working to keep each other goin.... ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

You are so awesome! Thank you for what you do! I work on my own vehicles but for those who don’t you are a gift from heaven!

What a cool honest Mechanic 💪🏻 hard to find someone like you.

I appreciate you taking the time to talk to her about the process and what you were looking for. She seemed she was genuinely curious and wanted to know what was going on, and if anything just to have a little more knowledge for the future. Some people wouldn't have given her the time of day.

Good work, Mr. Parker. The world needs more of you!

Honesty and a good attitude, That's exactly how you get a lot of repeat customers and build a good reputation as a mechanic. That's hard to find these days in any repair business. Most will screw you over any way they can. Just like the scammer that said she needed a head gasket.

Lovely young lady and glad you could help her

He is out of his mind. Wait til he sees what work is necessary for a radiator replacement on that model. Plus, I tend to doubt the radiator even leaks, the 1.8T is notorious for failed thermostat or oil filter stand gasket which is right where he was pointing to.

Finding a good, honest mechanic is AMAZING! How many shops out there charging $200 just to hook up the scan tool?

You have to investigate and dive in like this guy did great job 👍

What a great guy, You don't find too many mechanics that are this honest

Honesty, in this day and age!! Outstanding and well done sir!!!

nice to see there's honest mechanics still around... about the only other thing I figure he should probably have suggested is replacing the hoses along with the radiator...

Thanks for being honest with everyone. That's a rare find these days.

I subscribed,,because you are a good person, and not a cheat..we need more people like you..

I've been a mechanic for 40 yrs now mostly do front end alignments and suspension work. I always bring people out to the car and educate them on what is going on.

This guy is a BEAST!! Very good mechanic

Why can't more mechanics be honest like this?

You are definitely THE MAN! Completely honest!

Also, This guy is super nice, I know he doesn’t have the expenses or overhead that a dealership has, but a dealership where I live, charges minimum $175 plus tax just to diagnose this problem, will obviously only use/buy OEM parts and then labor again to re and re this radiator……..end cost being around $750 and up vs this guy literally charging a $100 bucks for all his time, knowledge and travel expenses…..she doesn’t know how lucky she is here.

Bliss you brother for helping this woman 🙏🏼👍🏼 👠♀️ your a super hero nice 👍🏼

Finding an honest mechanic is almost impossible to find these days. Honest, capable and reasonable in price, if you find one hang on to him.

The thing I like about this video is the weather. It's such a lovely summer's day, perfect for working on the motor.

Good, honest auto mechanic…Thanks man!👍🏻👍🏻

Excited to see how you tackled the issue and what you figured out. Best of luck with the repair! We sent you an email, take a look.

We need more guys like this one...God bless you...

Good to know they're still honest people .

Seams like a nice honest guy..

Where are you located, I will Pass your info to people I know. It is refreshing to find someone honest this day and time.

Love how you complement someone doin his job and not for scam her. That's messed up world.

You sir are a blessing

I hope you get rich as hell doing business like this. Good for both customer and business owner. Awesome job !!!!

Many mechanics are out for the instant “big - pay - day”, when honesty can increase that payout 100 times over !!!

Great to see an honest mechanic

Love your content man. You’re doing great views. Little longer videos I really think your view count would be super high. Your deff have a good opportunity not just with your business here! Keep up the good work man!

It's rad that you told her what is going on, so many mechanics are shady and act like it's a state secret what's happening in the car

Keep this guy!! I had a place"mistakenly" not connect a coolant line to another part they replaced. Leaked coolant badly for 2 weeks. They refused to admit that's what it was AFTER I took it back and they fixed their mistake. They tried to tell me it was a head gasket issue. 2nd opinion (and the fact it stopped leaking after they connected the hose) showed there was no head gasket issue. Always get a 2nd opinion!

That young lady seems so down to earth. Lucky man that finds her.

Now that's what I call a human professional mechanic.... Respect 🙌👍

Hope seems much more interesting than the car. Glad to see people who understand that honesty is the best policy. 👌

Nice job young man.

Glad there are still honest mechanics out there!

"I guess we'll just drive and see what happens" Nervous mechanic laughter😂

Obviously this guy is saving the customers a ton of money by building revenues off of his YT channel. Nothing wrong with that at all, and keeps everyone honest for the world to see.. but at the same time, taking this car to a cheap but honest shop (not on YT), I would expect to pay ~ $500.. for me, since I have skills to DIY, it would just cost me parts and coolant (~$125). Kudos to you sir, I do appreciate this content.

That's how I do it. Give more than you receive.

You are a good friend.

The "clue" was the lady said it stopped overheating for a while then started overheating again ... not the head gasket ... rads often self block small holes then start leaking again. So good to see an HONEST MAN to help the lady out as a head gasket would cost a lot more to replace ... respect to Matthew for honesty.

Ford in Carson city Nevada would say the car is totaled.

You just pull this off and it comes right out lol I spent 3 hours trying to get my radiator and fans back in , bottom hoses top hoses 25 bolts and 6 lacerations

When my mother was alive a mechanic told her she needed to spend $800 on electrical work as her car was running rough. I changed the wires and plugs and for less than $100 it ran great. Some people suck some are awesome.

Came here from Tictok to support you buddy! Keep it up man!

Someone saw VW and assumed headgasket because Jetta and Golf are notorious for headgasket issues. Good on you for taking the time to troubleshoot properly and save her lots of money.

Excellent service that people need. 👏

I have worked in cars for many years I had many customers some other shops or dealers lie to them, great job sir keep you honest not everyone those it this days

I hope that Hope found a good guy mechanic. Lots of business to you and be blessed

What a descent guy!.good job!.

I am just a shade tree guy, but I run into this stuff all the time. Super sad because as some of the other guys have said, an honest mechanic winds up getting fired because he won't play ball. Pisses me right off. Once had a girl told she needed a new motor. She had like 30k miles. It was a Daewoo, so ...but 30k miles and blow by already? It was burning blue smoke but only at high revs. It was a plugged up crankcase valve. Cost 12 bucks and took me like 30 seconds to pop it in. A local shop wanted to charge her over 3 grand and they probably knew damn good and well what it really was.
