>when the mechanic refers to my wheels as "rims"

>>16072646
the rim is part of the wheel.
That's like car 101, shits you learn at 14years old, faggot.

It's sad that your mechanic has to deal with someone as retard as you.

Lol you dumb faggot cuck arguing semantics because you have no valid point to make

>>16072677
Op pays 100 an hour labor to get an alignment lollllll

>>16072646
When mechanic refers to tread as tire thickness.
When mechanic refers to ecu as cpu

when you break a connecting rod and the mechanic says

>you threw a rod

>>16072677
>Yells semantics because he has no valid point to make
Rims and wheels are two completely different things and are not interchangeable. It's not semantics when you completely misuse a word, semantics would be that you were diagnosed with mild retardation at the age of 5 by Doctor Goldbergstein then somebody chimes in and says that the first guy mispronounced the doctor's name; it's irrelevant to the point, OP has a point.

Wheel= tire + rim
This causes no end to frustration when people use tire, rim, and wheel interchangeably.

Fun story about a recent side job

>buddy's cousin has a Mazdaspeed3
>claims it isn't fast enough/doesn't handle well enough
>wants me to check it out to do tuning
>sit shotgun with him going down toegay
>see nothing wrong with the car
>can't think of a way to tell him he's just a shit driver
>tell him to watch my feet and hands while I drive
>I cucked myself out of money by teaching him to drive for free

>when the mechanic spends 20 minutes looking for the obd2 port on your 1995

>>16072787
That's pretty retarded, but not offering any warranty on the work is a good idea.

>>16073743
Commercial garages that specialize in walk ins dont do lutside parts for obvious reasons. Its an overselling technique.

>>16073926
I own three commercial garages, literally all of my business is walk in, I don't make appointments. I'll have my guys install any parts that are safe to use (no used brake pads etc.). Not everyone is shady and Jewish just because they charge to work on cars.
