i dont really considerate being disrespectful by not being discrete about his business, he obviously doesnt respect you by treating you the way he has. im sorry, this is only my opinion, but the same thing just happened to me and i guess im just taking this kinda personal, and i hate mechanics like this! but...good luckKyle87T said:Hes a mercedes benz and BMW specialist. I dont want to get into detail, but I doubt anyone is going to go to this mechanic since he usually doesnt work on asian cars.
i second thatjetjock said:Now that it's running you need to either take it elsewhere or bring it home and get some help. You can do the master and slave cylinder yourself.
jetjock said:No, not gaskets leaks. The big cracks running down the side of the manifolds, head, and block are at fault.
Of course gasket leaks. Or hoses. Or pipes. Anything that pukes fluids on the engine is going to smoke and smell. Or maybe it's an exhaust leak in the engine compartment. This car sounds like a steaming pile. He doesn't work on Asian cars? Why did you take it there to begin with? Now that it's running you need to either take it elsewhere or bring it home and get some help. You can do the master and slave cylinder yourself.
That is just awesome!jetjock said:The cause of those things is his house or car payment is due.
Kyle87T said:I have no idea RM. I am nowhere near the shop to even take a peek. He actually told me to come by to look at it, but I'm just too far away. He didnt spill oil on it because he hasnt even done anything yet except for starting the car and letting it run. He said he noticed the smoke and the smell of oil, but then again ya never know right?

if your clutch pedal went to the floor it means you lost all the brake fluid
it probably leaked out..and theres your smell.. has he looked under the car yet?lol
the best thing you can do for your car is get it back from this guy as quickly as possible
"he hasnt even done anything yet" you just said it yourself
give him $0.30 for the electrical tape :3d_frown:
Jake makes a good point,Reign_Maker said:That is just awesome!
Kyle, did he spill fluid on your block? I did that once, not realizing, or I forgot or something, and when I started the motor, when it got hot, it was smoking, I about freaked out, and it turned out I had a little oil on the block, once it burned off, no more smoke...
