This is some French-tier design decisions right here, engineers truly live in a different world to mechanics.

Every Mechanic and Auto Electrician (Me) has been caught with this style of thing, stickers on wrong or part with wrong label etc., the main thing is we learn from it and make the customer happy in the end, you achieved both so well done.

Big hugs baz. I feel your pain. I've had customer cars before where they are tampered then denied they took bits off. Sends you down a rabbit hole.

There is nothing worse than having to question your own work when in our heads we have done it correctly 🤷🏻♂️

My biggest head scratcher was headlight washers on a mini inop. After hours, head scratching, a washer pump and an ecu later it turned out the bonnet switch was the issue....

Had a similar case once. Another garage had taken off and cleaned the DPF on a ford kuga 2.0 tdci. Came in with limp mode. Codes for differential pressure sensor. Could never make sense of the differential pressure I was reading on the diagnostic. Turns out the pipes to the differential pressure sensor were switched. One side of each pipe is smaller in diameter to the other side. And there is a small and big fit on the dpf metal pipe and differential sensor. So the natural thing there was to put small to small and big to big, but wrong! Switched the lines back and it was fixed. Real head scratcher!

Air suspension systems are an utter ball ache it seems! Stupid design to have the colours in the wrong places on the valve block...

What’s your view on aftermarket parts quality? Any views on Febi, Lemforder, SKF?

And how do you charge the customer?
@henryrolt37473 ай бұрын
3:29 and don't know the solution yet but I'm guessing rear left and right air lines switched.

I'd have done exactly the same as you Baz and anybody who says they wouldn't is telling porkies....
