Can you recommend any radio automotive repair shows that you can call in with mechanical problems on the show? I used to listen online to a couple of really good ones in Texas. As a DYI mechanic they were invaluable for me.
I feel like that isn’t a feasible show long term. Giving advice over the internet/ phone can be very difficult considering you aren’t there in person you can’t be certain that tests were preformed correctly. False test results can and will lead to misdiagnosed cars and potentially dangerous situations. Especially since not all diyers are created equally. You have guys who are borderline master techs who only fix their own vehicles or you have guys who claim to know every thing and hook up jumper cables backwards in the grocery store parking lot.
@@Austinadcock ill second that. My over the phone goto is I need to see it and get our eyes on it to verify the problem as well as the repair afterwards and also to make sure we're not spending your money on parts your vehicle doesn't need. theres almost nothing anymore that can be resolved over the phone/internet. There is a reason the TAC/ techline at dealerships has such an extensive list of tests and results they look for before they even talk to you about the problem. There's a reason those are minimum 4 hour phone calls on average ( in my experience with direct level 3 support through gm)
