Brake disks corroded

already edited my post within about 1 minute of posting it.
can't be bothered trying to defend the motor trade from the ignorance of armchair experts :shrug:

You really think sounding so rude is defending anyone in the trade, given several people answering this thread in a more polite manner are in the trade?


Edit: OOps, sorry Rob, didn't hit refresh before posting, basically saying the same thing

To be fair Adam, she wasn't claiming to be an expert - she was asking a civilised question on a subject she made clear she wasn't clued up on. Nowt wrong with that.

I do agree that a number of checks should be carried out by everyone preferably every week on fluids, tyres, bulbs and brakes - things that can be eyeballed shall we say, making sure nothings loose or leaking.

obviously..

still plenty of misconceptions in here though

as soon as i posted i regretted it hence the immediate edit.
i get enough of it during the week:bonk:

sorry guys. me getting short & possibly rude with people was the reason i tried getting out of this thread the instant i got into it :bang:

the customers i've had this week would make a saint cry :bonk:

after i first moved into reception (after 27 years in the workshop) the customers literally did drive me to drink!
i think i spent around 6 months as a borderline alcoholic

i'm on one of my winter detoxes at the moment so not a drop for the last 2 months or so

now its just another day in the funny farm. get em in, get em out & hopefully a few smiles on the way

i think because of a solid grounding in how the cars actually work i am capable of giving sound advice & its frustrating seeing threads full of motortrade misconceptions all over the net...
