I'd have to agree on the poor workmanship mannerisms of many repair shops. My vehicles have lots of plastic interior and exterior locations as well as mechanical and from past experiences, they break the little locking tabs on every connection they touch, crack plastic parts where there is a fastener securing them down due to over tightening them and simply general man handling brittle parts that are very difficult to replace and simply say Well they're old and brittle, we can't do nuthin about that. Well guess what? It didn't come into your shop that way so, you can replace everything you damaged. They have no etticut what so ever. You'd think they would get the impression a very clean car under the hood etc. would be a joy to work on but no, they rumble through the vehicle as if it were out of the junk yard. They are about as useful as RATS eating away on your car parts.

I like your videos a lot. I'm really scared tho. I really care about my car, it's kind of my pride and joy. I need a good mechanic. What you show on video really makes me nervous. The guy I used to use, forgot to secure a wheel on my sister's car and acted like it was no big deal so I'm on the hunt for a new shop. Accidents happen but they way it was handled was also unacceptable. Now I'm worried about taking my car in and it ends up hacked to pieces. I wish you weren't 4. 5 hours away, man.

I really enjoy your videos Eric. Your approach to a problem is classic old school (no offense. For the most part I can follow you, but when you get the scan tool out and start talking geek you lose me. 4: 00 to 4: 34. I want to understand because it would help me put those backward puzzle pieces the right way around in my head. I'd have taken some advil, gone home and tackled it in the morning. We all are beneficiaries of your strong work ethic. Thank you. Vancouver, Canada.

I want to go in there like a nijga, I dont want anyone to know where ive been in there is exactly why Eric O. is the best. He cares about peoples property (car) and doesnt want to damage anything while he diagnoses the car. He takes it to heart and all of us should thank him for doing the right thing by taking care. I only wish I had a mechanic like him in my area

Cheers for the awesome videos SMA!
Yeah can be depressing how some people treat things. I bought a WR450 for a trail thrasher. Out of habit I went to change all fluids. and found over half a dozen destroyed threads so far. Little tiny 7 ft lb m6 bolts going into soft alloy that have been swung on and come out with lots of alloy shaved threads. Helicoil time! ;p

I have a question. If I buy a PCM with the same part number will it still need to be programmed because of the vin number?
And also I found one at the auto wrecker but it was off of a Chrysler 300 3. 6L. Will that also work?

I love these diagnosis videos. But I worry because a lot of these are filmed after hours. Don't forget to spend time with Mrs. O and the kids. You've got a wonderful family.

Truely professional, clean and thoughtful work. Your application of principles is amazing. Thank you, you helped me diagnose a bad PCM on my TandC, when no one else could.
