i once serviced a car and strongly recommended to the customer that we change the clutch as it was on its last legs. They refused and took the car away. It came back 4 days later on a recovery truck with a blown release bearing. Some of us mechanics are legit.

Why did the release bearing fail? Was it due to the clutch? I am not being critical, just curious how a clutch breaks a release bearing. On the other hand, if you noticed a clutch problem, notified the customer and then the clutch failed, you did the right thing. There was obviously something not right. I do most repairs on my car myself, but have a garage round the corner with about four workers in it. I let them work on my car because I do trust them and can not be bothered to crawl under my car for a few quid. You sound like you are that type of honest garage. I would never go in to a KwiKfit /halfords type place under any conditions. I am not a car mechanic, but I have taken large engines out of large cars and put them in smaller ones for fun, which makes me slightly more able than your average Kwikfit fitter.

Best case scenario buy privately and bring a genuinely knowledgeable friend along with you. Never go to any kind of dealership. Private garages run the same risks so avoid those too unless you personally know the owner or workers. Ironically you are better off in a "chain" store garage since the minimum wage workers have no real incentive to rip you off.

Ned Well you’re saying that tyre fitters work harder than mechanics, which insinuates the work is harder, which is why the extra effort is required. Second of all you say there are no mechanics anymore only strippers and fitters which is an equally stupid statement. How do you define a mechanic? Tyre fitters have one of the easiest jobs going. Can I, someone who is slightly above average when it comes to mechanics, car work etc change a tyre? A wheel? Yes. Can I change an engine? A turbo? Can I fuck. Can a tyre fitter? Can they fuck

I've been driving for 30yrs now and it's hard to trust any garage I go to for repairs or mot's. The last 2 places I've been to refused to work on my car as I told them what was wrong and to fix only those things. One place I took it to failed its mot and wanted £286 for the mot plus welding and brake pipes. Not believing them I paid for the mot but took it somewhere else for a 2nd opinion. It failed on a faulty back light that the 1st place didn't even notice. Didn't need welding and didn't need brake pipes. I went back to 1st place with my mot to show them in front of customers, they couldn't get me out quick enough. Robbing bastards. (excuse my language) I've just about had enough of mechanics. Sorry if someone genuine is reading this but the bad ones are giving good ones a terrible reputation.

@campbellscollision and you think customers want to deal with a individual like yourself from the comment alone you seem like the person to do half arsed jobs and not to mention the person might not have the required tools or knowledge to repair it , if you had a fault with your boiler who do you phone even though you know what might be issue ? Ahh that's right a repairman who is qualified for the job , remember who pays your bills customers without them you have nothing simple build a reputable company with clients and you will have them referring friends family etc left right and centre I only know because I've experienced this myself with my uncle's buisness due to fact half of time a customer comes in they always mention someone who is either a regular customer for m.o.t's etc or say well my friend or family member recommended I come here as I've heard your decent reputable garage , nothing wrong with honesty try it sometime and you'll not have to be dishonest to make a living

I don't know how to feel about this one - all the times I have taken my car to a "proper garage" they have always tried to tell me things are broken or going to break when they ain't. Same for the very few times I have went to the manufactures garage. Renault being my worse experience - they literally had my car for over 5 months trying to "fix it" - to cut a long story short - I got the car back (still not fixed) and decided to check it over myself - within 5 minutes I suspected a broken/damaged valve - a few hours later when I took the head off the engine, I confirmed it was a broken valve, replaced it and the car was like new again. Most of the time (at least in my experience) these "experts" don't know their arse from their elbow and spend most their time talking shit based on what they have READ out of their latest TEXT BOOK. I've always worked on cars myself since my last experience with Renault - I'm a perfectionist so I get the job done how it's supposed to, generally I get it done much quicker and of course much cheaper.

GOOD ON Y'A, LEE Best way to DIY. These days, there are instructional videos available on-line [eg. on KZbin] if you haven't got anyone to teach you. You can buy Genuine Parts and change the Discs and Pads on your motor at a FRACTION of what a typical robbing Garage would charge.

if you can remove a clutch you can easily tell when its "worn" out so giving a second car wasnt really the way to go.

Oh could I add to this.......we had a laguna, gearbox made noises, so this joker offered a new gearbox and new clutch......when it was fitted the reverse lights didnt work.....we offered to travel to him to get it fixed and have a night in Clerkheaton......they claimed to have fixed it, yet a few miles later, the AA were called due to a noise and they suggested the work was dangerous. Clerkheaton offered to recover the vehicle and repair it...its about the only thing they did as the repair, once complete, couldn't be returned as their recovery vehicle was out of action (hope it wasnt the clutch), so they offered to go halves on a delivery cost....we accepted.....the returned vehicle dripped pink fluid everywhere, they had overfilled a manual transmission with ATF (automatic transmission fluid).....so we had this drained to the correct level (it had also made a mess of my mother in laws drive) and still it dripped as they had not removed the plastic seal from one of the driveshafts which they should have done. We claimed our overnight accommodation, fuel, cleaning costs against their guarantee and they offered a reasonable amount.

In all fareness With the ford focus..seeing a leak like that would normally indicate a problem slave witch means the gearbox would have to come out. And ruel of tumb... if the gearbox has to be taken out you should always change the clutch..because its open silly not to when you've already paid for the same labour to take the box out....

To be fair the guy accepts the customers word that there is a problem, the customer wont pay him to drive it around for a week to replicate it, garage repairs are based on educated guesses, not laboratory examination

Bollocks. Garages are there to correctly diagnose and rectify faults. For example: You don't go in with a wheel wobble on braking and have the track rod ends replaced. The garage would check the ball joints and bushings and hub bearings for play and also check the discs for run out with a dial gauge. By doing that you'd find the issue by process of elimination. That's not educated guesswork. Either you get scammed a lot or you're justifying being a scammer because you work in a garage.

Just a tip, get rich, and then buy shares in each company you require services from then you created a business deal. For those who can't do this there should be an insurance out there for people whom can't afford one off payments to avoid debts mounting, and keep the garages in business perhaps that be a great idea if this idea is at all possible to ease pressure and,money worries, the idea would make, allot of people happy, and as they say happy people, happy business and of course happy life, just an idea though from a mere mortal

P G well if you have a car like a Porsche you can always find a freelance mechanic who has worked on them and knows them inside out and will get genuine parts. I know a fella with a few Ferrari’s and he always had his 360’s services by a mechanic who worked at a Ferrari dealership but now operates privately.

To be honest, the aftermarket clutch he fitted to the focus, isn't a "chocolate" clutch, its a perfectly acceptable aftermarket item that you'll buy from any motor factors. Not everyone wants Sachs or LuK.

Debatable. And it'll be a cheap piece of crap that WILL fail prematurely. If you're fitting cheapo clutches and the like you shouldn't be near cars. For components like that reputable brands are the only way to go and generally aren't much more expensive.
