I am fortunate to have a local mechanic named Nick in Granby MA who I can trust with my cars

[@Jollyprez]

We had engine lights and mechanic said code was misfiring...he suggested TWO THINGS for us to try - fill-up with fresh fuel, then - injector cleaner. He really TRIED not to have to try a repair....both of those failed, so he did a tune-up on our 170,000 mile Honda. Replaced spark plugs, cleaned injectors, and new air filter - no lights since over 20,000 miles. Total cost was $350- and that included replacing a leaky power steering hose + fluid. It's great to find honest mechanics.

[@Russell-rc6qq]

Why would he really try not to have to try repair? Basically, why would the mechanic be so enthusiastic to deprive himself of some business?

[@RustyCar]

@@Russell-rc6qq- Please tell me you miss the point of the original comment above.

[@Jollyprez]

@@Russell-rc6qq Because HE IS HONEST. He first verified that driving the car with lights on would not harm the engine. Then, with his 40 years of experience, he gave us two options to try before using him. Also, he has earned our ongoing business - we have three cars and he'll profit far more than the thieves in the next town over where we haven't been back in 5 years.

[@Russell-rc6qq]

Yeah I’ve had my grand am check engine light on for over 1 years and a half now, ever since I replaced the engine on it the check engine light just won’t go out I mean it runs fine. But I try to get my mechanic to do some codes on it. He clears some codes and it never goes away. I can tell I need a new water pump probably because of the whining… Grand ams are very reliable and the 3400 is no joke, with right mods the thing screams!. It’s just I need to change my transmission soon. It slips it’s very rough and gear and that’s the only issue I have. I’ve had the car for a long time only started doing this in the last 6 months

[@bostonwarrior4824]

@@gordocarbo yeah. Despite those issues, I can still drive it every day if I just baby it. I just can’t go on far trips, especially it struggles uphill. I will say Lucas oil helped a ton for the tranny fluid. When I first got it, I had to put a new engine in it. I had multiple head, gaskets blown when I bought it, engine temp would go all the way to 360. It wasn’t good, but luckily I got it replaced. Then some genius pulled out in front of me and I couldn’t put the brakes on in time because they just randomly pulled out in front of me and I crashed into them and basically totaled it. Well, they were at fault their insurance company deemed it, but I didn’t want it totaled. So I got together with my mechanic and I rebuilt the whole front end myself. My insurance company didn’t really give me a hard time, but I got it fixed. Had to buy a whole, but luckily the frame wasn’t damaged and there was no other internal issues.

Save money on transportation and get healthy exercise. Ride a bicycle to school, work or for fun. Cities need to do more to encourage people to ride bicycles. Safe protected bike lanes and trails are needed so adults and children can ride safely. Speak up for bicycles in your community. Bicycles make life and cities better. Ask your local transportation planner and elected officials to support more protected bike lanes and trails. Children should be riding a bicycle to school and not be driven in a minivan.
