More likely to get told a pack of lies and to end up fixing things that don’t need fixin’. And yah yah I know I know “your mechanic is trustworthy”. Funny how everyone says that but I’ve only met a few honest mechanics in my long life.  And yes I know how to tell an honest mechanic from a dishonest one.  Been hard-core wrenching for more decades than most here have been alive. 

 So what’s the solution? Become a mechanic? 

 I wish I had a solution for you fren. Maybe we can come up with one together?  Meanwhile just gonna have to rely on your judgement like you’ve been doing. Sorry 😞 

Oh 💡…but there is this… go to a busy shop as they’re less likely to have to make shit up.
