What's the longest amount of time your car has spent at a repair shop?
2 years ago, I brought my car to a friend's shop and it sat there for 2.5 months and it sucks because the only thing that needs to be replaced was the hood since it had dents and some rust. I brought it there since i don't have the tools. I mean, it's a Honda it's one of the easiest cars to get parts for and i told him to find any color hood so it should be easy. When i scavenged my own parts in the junkyard I was able to find a spoiler and a headlight within a day, a hood should be easier to find!
I've got absolutely no idea.
I purchased an antique English Sports car a few years back at auction.
During shipment to my residence the transport company damaged the rear 1/4 panel, the axle, the wire wheel rim. It took three months in various shops to repair the damage, most of it time spent sourcing and waiting for parts.
The actual work for the repair was less than 2 weeks though.
Almost a month. The mechanic was waiting for a transmission and when it finally
got there it was the wrong one.
Never. Just long enough for an oil change.
About 5 days I think.
That would be my drive way i do what needs to be done on my car, who has money to give to a friend or a mechanic, well then sounds as like he wasn't to hip on fixing the car, a hood can be bought at just about any junk yard, and well what can anyone say
2 weeks
Your mistake was taking it to a friend
- Is it better to become a auto technician at a dealership or open up your own shop? I like Ford, Toyota, Honda, Porsche. I'm a senior high school student making a mind if its better to work at a dealership or open up own auto shop? I'm aware that most dealerships uses flat rate system and I do have some knowledge about cars in general. I work at a private auto shop as of currently. Oil change, mount and balance tire, brake fluid, transmission fluid, brake pad and rotors replacement. ETC. I pretty much do the basics stuff.
- How long does it take for loan max to repossess your car after your loan due date in Ohio? I took out an $800 title loan on my 2000 Honda Oddyssey (188,000 miles) and I can't make the initial repayment amount of $288 on time. How long will it be before they send someone out to repossess my car? I live in Ohio and I'm really afraid they will repossess it before I can come up with the cash.
- How do you increase your MPG on your car? I got 60mpg in my Honda Civic recently for 100 miles by coasting downhill and increasing air in tires by 5psi. How do you do it?
- HONDA CIVIC 2013 OWNERS; How long can your car run on empty gas until your car finally just stops? I run on E all the time, and I'm always scared that one day it will just stop… Knock on wood, it hasn't happened yet and I hope it doesn't! But i'm just curious to see if any of you have had this happen to you, and how long you traveled on E? It's good to keep in mind!
