Fake automotive dealers

Pole mbro…though maji na coolant huwa zina mix kama uko mbali na coolant iko critical levels…
Personally i prefer kuendea mechanic kwa reputable petro stations incase gari ilete noma on transit…hawa jua kali mechanic chini ya miti hapan tambua

Depending on the make and model you push, those chini ya mti mechanics see more scenarios and have more experience from servicing daily as compared to the dealers…think nissan and toyota matatus rarely go to dealers and rarely have serious issues even they are recklessly driven or maintained.

Dealers are generally shit, worldwide. Some will even deliberately damage parts so that they force you to buy entire modules of this or that.

I had a client like you once. Jamaa Toyota. Sipumui. Nidrain oil he wants to see, niangalie brakes he’s breathing down my neck, kwa OBD port yeye huyo. Bulb yeye ndiye ananunua. Dawa yake…
Niliwasha gari for a few minutes and when he asked why there was a slight miss, I undid one spark plug and gave it to him ashike. Ilimchoma akairusha. Meffi.
Si kwa ubaya, but Nigga giving me grief and my daily fuel budget is his for two weeks.
Mechanic ni tofauti.
And that’s why I only do bespoke now.

BTW I have an AFS inoperative message on a passat, front lights are doing the dance and corner lights all working, no one even the dealer can figure it out, any ideas?

Bespoke ndio nini sasa?. Mazda Carol haijafanyiwa hiyo kitu, lakini sleeper ishafanyiwa. Unamdharau sana wewe kijana mzee, kuleta words zengine hapa zenye sielewi. Ile siku utapata jibu la gumba ushindwe kufanya hizo bespoke ndio utaweka heshima mfukoni. Chiet!!

Bro, leta hiyo Mazda tuweke engine straight six.

@snapdragon

Me i do this i go buy repair stuffs.ie oil.filters plugs etc. Then i go to my mechanic guy namkondolea macho hapo adi akiangalia break pads i go round with him .
Akitoa hio oil mzee i feel it and smell it

I do the same thing. Mechanics can be very sly chaps especially with replacing your car parts with fake or worn out parts. I never leave the car eti Maliza ninarudi in 2hours.

Dealers are the worst kwanza toyota pale nyayo .they tell u to leave your car for 2weeks then they change even stuff u didn’t ask for unapata wamekuandikia invoice ya 70k

Niligundua hivo. You get an experienced one and one who is intelligent its better. hao wengine sijui petro station sijui “dealer” wanaanza kukuuliza ile kitu unataka ifanywe kama uliwaletea kama unajua. kwanza kunaye aliniwekea brake pads wiki tatu zimepita sasa gari ni kama tarumbeta za jericho. I checked the pads and they are disintegrating. I know a thing or two abt cars so i know when they are trying to steal or make extra coin.

Hehehe…what are you trying to achieve? You better be sure, after kuiweka, that it’ll stop when you step on the brake pedal.

Exactly as I suspected: múgúka fellows. Some modifications may be so expensive that one would rather get a car already with those specs from the factory.

Somebody asked about the leaf springs juzi, I’m yet to make enquiries around. I’m almost convinced it can be done but I need an expert’s opinion.
