chauvinist mechanic and inflated prices
I got a lube mobile van out to do a gear box service as it was changing really rough. Cost me $99 to have him look at it for 15mins. In that 15 mins all he did was plug in the test machine and tell me nothing came up as a fault. He went on to tell me it would cost $150 for him to test drive it then would be a charge for him to diagnose it in 15 min intervals (of I think it was $65 after that). The gearbox service was first quoted at $995 but when I said my last one was mid $300 he could bring the price down to $775. Luckily for me I actually know a bit about cars otherwise I would have paid a lot more than I needed to. Ended up taking it to a nearby mechanic where I got the gearbox serviced for $301 and rear mount replaced as I said to the lube mobile mechanic was the issue. He went on to tell me that a service wouldn’t fix the issue and gave me overly inflated quotes for things I didn’t need.would not recommend to anyone especially a female. Definately tried to make me feel like I had no idea what I needed even though I knew exactly what the problem was. He would have as well if he had driven the car instead of plugging his diagnostic machine in 10 times.
