Told me part was fine 😡 it wasn’t
Lube mobile came out to try and diagnose my car. Paid for diagnostic scan to be done and then told no codes came up. Also told catalytic converter was clear and not blocked. I was advised that my cam phasers needed further investigation at a cost of around $3k. At that point my car sat idle for a little while whilst I contemplated my next move and also having to attend cancer appointments. During this time I had a nagging urge to send it to someone else. So my car went to a garage via tow truck. There this mechanic ran diagnostics also and found 13 codes had come up for my car. After further investigation he found the catalytic converter to be blocked after replacement of part (lube mobile said was fine) my car is now back working and on the road. I contacted lube mobile and ended up speaking with Sean that very politely told me it was my fault for not allowing them to investigate further. Then I pointed out they had already looked at part and said it was ok. And their next step would have cost me $3k+ and wouldn’t fix my car. Sean politely told me they would have found problem eventually at my expense. I also pointed out I was told my best option was to get a complete new engine. Again would not of fixed problem. But would have put this already struggling cancer patient further behind. Glad I went with my gut instinct and went with another mechanic. He was able to fix my car cheaper than what lube mobiles next step of investigation of cam phasers would have been plus what other invesgations they would have come up with at my expense. Thank you again lube mobile for taking my money not diagnosing. Would I recommend. Highly NO. Not unless you want to waste your money.
