Who's busy?

There was no switch inside these. ..but I know what you mean had switch levers inside Skoda Octavia's and Superb's in my last job at the dealer's.

Just one crap job left... no throttle pedal on a 1999 vw tdi transporter van. Other than that 2 mots today and minor jobs. Nothing major booked tomorrow.

December is a bad one for me every year, but fk it. Just wanna break up now and enjoy Christmas.

i just turned up the waste oil heater for the boys as there christmas bonus cant spoil them they might think there getting a real christmas bonus( ba humbug )

just doing an x type,failed on emissions + rear brakes while I was on holiday,her sons"fixed it" and fair enuff the emissions are ok but it still had no handbrake,over the 2 weeks for retest anyway.asked us to look at it,rear pads aint lined up with the location lugs on the new calipers,one of em worn at an angle cos of it,fitted new pads correctly and now have matching foot+handbrakes,trouble is the hand travel is rocket launcher level.its got the old self adjuster ratchet built in,you know,the ones that ford gave up on and installed a manual one to cure.this needs the same,the kid that worked on it is insisting that weve ripped her off because THEY spent loads on sensors calipers etc and now need a handbrake ratchet as well.weve ripped em off for the mot as well apparently cos it needs a full test.oh well.....

I had an R reg mk5 transit tipper in for test today and I said to the owner "If I don't find something soon I am going to have to go round again"
The look on his face was priceless.......... Oh how we laughed..... when he realised I was joking.
Not given one of those a clean sheet for as long as I can remember !!

Had a female customer the other day, failed on emissions and a few other its, the bloody card reader was stuck during communications and never moved forwards, cancelled and tried again but no luck, she says she had no money on her, I politely asked if she would nip to Sainsbury's cash machine and she said I'm not walking it. I said go in the car then, she however didn't return so I rang her and hr mobile answerphone came on so I left a message, she rang back telling the boss she had paid, the boss asked me and I said she had not, however she saw sense and came in the following day to collect her shopping and pay the test fee  . I guess we were lucky that day. Electronic communications are worse now than they ever were years ago. 

You were lucky she paid. About 15 year's ago the garage I worked in fitted an engine in a car and the customer was a fella that lived in a caravan and traveled a lot if you get my drift.!
Anyway before he paid the bill he said I want to make sure it's all ok and take it for a run so very stupidly my boss at the time let him. ...and ....well like I said it was about 15 year's ago and my old boss is still waiting for him to come back.

Yes but your dealing with the human race, except when dealing with DVSA staff .
