Well i think you all have other ideas if you go to fix your car and man who fixes uses way that works bad - when other could fix better.

but i hear your thoughts

That happens anyway here in the UK and you pay the guy to fix it badly

You get good & bad service, whether you pay for it or not - that's life. I think the service here and at other "free" boards is pretty good, seeing as they are all self-regulating

Cheers!

We also have people in this country who will take their car to a mechanic to be fixed. The mechanic will do a perfectly good job, but the customer will try to find fault with the mechanic because he is prone to complaining about everything.

I'm very interested in any mechanic who can do a perfectly good job - where is he????

Perfection is relative my friend.

Take my mother, for instance - her son's perfect!

But as everyone keeps saying, and to use your analogy, if you give your car to a friend to take a look at and they do you a favour by telling you how to fix it for free then you can't complain if they don't fix it the same way a paid mechanic would.

You might not ask for your friends advice again but then you'd miss out because the next time your car had a problem he might know the best way to fix it.

It doesn't matter which analogy you use. At the end of the day it's free advice and if you don't use the answer that was given this time you might still learn something from it. If you also get the answer you wanted then you've got two for the price of one which is a pretty good deal when it's free in the first place if you ask me.
