What did you do for your ZHP/ BMW / MINI today? #2

[Newjack]

Paid $509 via YourMechanic.com. Best money I’ve spent on this car. Mechanic did the work in my garage. Bosch starter.

Please elaborate on what this is

Website that offers a mechanic that meets you at your preferred location. Dan Mac turned me onto them. You can get a quote online and see reviews of the mechanics. I’m guessing you may be able to get the same guy I did—Emmette Greene. See YourMechanic.com.

That's a pretty cool idea. I'd still rather take my car to my trusted mechanic, but if I'm in a pinch this would be a lot better than taking it to a shady shop who won't let you see what they are doing

Thanks to Shawn (he supplied the mirror motor mounting plates), I was able to help Colin retrofit his ZHP coupe side mirrors into his OEM M3 side mirrors. All in all it was an awesome evening sharing my garage with both Colin and Botond while we rebuilt his side mirrors

I also painted my ZHP’s steering wheel trim Imola this afternoon....



I also gave Botond my spare driver’s door weather seal as his was in very bad shape...

You know that's what I'm all about John!

Sounds like fun!

It was an awesome time Rob! We hung out and just had a great time chatting it up until about midnight when it was time for both Colin and Botond to head home.
We all had a great time today!

+1 on yourmechanic.com ... I hired them to do some work on my Saab. I provided my own parts to save a little extra. The guy was very cool, and he showed and explained to me what he was doing to the car.

Elaborate?

I asked for a quote to replace the starter. They asked if I would like to have the battery and alternator and starter checked and make sure it is indeed the starter for $30 first. Seemed reasonable so I said ok. Probably the person who asked me didn’t know where the starter was. After dropping the car off I get a call saying because of the starter location it’s gonna cost $50 more but they checked the battery and alternator but found no fault. At this point I should’ve said just tell me how much to replace the starter and to not check the starter condition cause it’s quite obvious it’s the starter that’s causing the no crank issue. But me being at work and busy said “ya whatever make sure it’s the starter before you tear apart stuff”. So i guess it cost me an additional $50 not $100.

Now I have an SES light which the generic auto zone code reader shows as p1515 and p0174. I called them up and told them about the SES light and they asked me to bring it back. I’m sure they’ll try and get me to pay again. How I wish I have a garage now so I didn’t have to deal with this crap and do it right myself...
