most of my customers avoid new because of all electronics now fitted.
what's wrong with old style hydraulics? levers you can see what's happening! - (just one point, there are many more)
diagnostics that require laptop / main dealer support £££££
when most owners see a warning lamp lit all they think is how much is this going to cost this time!
I have a customer with 8 series Toyota gas that wont run nice for more than a week, I have so far billed him just shy of 2K and cant get to bottom of problem, (if all my time had been billed it would be more, but I feel guilty when I cant repair). Advised him to get Toyota in to look (I think its electrics) now he is 3.5K down from Toyota as well as my cost.
only thing I feel better about is Toyota cant repair their own machine either, so I don't look as bad!!
and they call this progress?
