Sounds like my kind of guy. Posted by SWEDECAR [Email] ![]() ![]() ![]() In Reply to: Is your Indy a Saab specialist? My indy and I were, Noel, Sat, 20 Nov 2004 15:16:17 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
I cannot see how you can work on a whole bunch of modern car makes today and make money on it.
But then again all the big car repair chains are still alive and wealthy, so I might be wrong.
I guess the key is to skim the gravy jobs and send the difficult ones away for another shop to deal with.
I spend a lot of time and money just to keep up with two brands only (Saab and Volvo).
On rare occasions I take a friends car in of another make just to help them out, and I end up spending hours and hours of reading and searching on the internet and repair manuals to figure out that "other" car.
"chalk it up to my list of experiance" is something I use a lot when encountering a new problem, and just as your guy says, I hope to see the same problem enough of times so that in the end I can make money on it.
Using the internet and especially Saabnet.com has helped me tremendously to pick up failure trends on the newer cars and learning about how other mechanics have solved the problem.
