I dunno, whats the world coming to eh?

You take all that time to design some idiotproof brakes and then along comes a better idiot

pmsl

thats a kind of error i would do though

 

Shouldn't have any pedal at all there then.......




believe me, it's happened, hasn't it Nuts RuS


took a day to work out why we had no pedal

 

Yeah but this guy's car was photographed at a show miles from home, which he presumabley had driven to, god knows how!

 

i recon he dont drive fast and prob thinks they need bedding in to get the spngy feel out of the system

 

Weird thing is though, he is actually quite a bright lad, ive spoken to him before, on the net and in person, cant believe someone who isnt stupid made such a mistake.

Really really frigthening to thing what could potentially happen.

For gods sake folks, if you dont understand brakes then dont work on them, some things are NOT the place for experimentation

 

you be suprised chip at the amount of ppl thinking they can diy and simply not have a clue
i get it all the time
rst brake kits i can fit in 10 mins so simple to fit but u b suprised how many carnt do it
tcas are another they ring up saying they dont fit
untill i tell them step by step then they ring up saying all is cool

 

Brom, i dont envy you having to dig people out of holes they get into with stuff like that all the time!

Ive seen people with TCA arms that have a taper for the ball joint and they have put it on upside down and wonder why it doesnt fit!

And most recent one was the other day, Clare on here has a friend who is a vauxhall mechanic, he had fitted a calibra turbo engine into his car and couldnt get it started, so she asked me to try and sort it for him, he'd only gone and put the return and feed for the fuel rail the wrong way round!
And that was a vauxhall technician working on a vauxhall.

Mind you, ive made some dumb mistakes myself over the year too no doubt, so not really picking fault, just thoguht it would post this one because its a potentailly fatal mistake that i dont want anyone else to make!

 

guess thats a way of the world some of us are good at some things some havnt got a clue
i not slagging ppl off for trying but its dangerous to them selfs in some cases
we all good at diffent things
i good at what i do but give me a computer i aint got a fooking clue
