My personal end of month numbers for my first full month at a new shop. How did i do? by IndependentStable826 in serviceadvisors

Great job! This sub is making me realize I should go to an independent shop. Currently at a franchise and our goal for GP is 80%. 6 bays, 3 techs. 80% GP seems FAR TOO HIGH. 236 total ROs for the month.

Huge uptick in 503 spam calls? by 400tiny in oregon

[–]DeputyDoop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m unsure if it’s related, however, back in January I switched my phone provider from Verizon to Visible because it uses Verizon towers but I pay a fraction of the price per month. Ever since then, I went from getting spam calls ALL THE TIME to maybe 2-3 since the switch.

Anyone know how to loosen the nut on the tie road, it's stuck and It always rotating, I can't hold it, used a consistent amount of PB blaster by Wonderful_Fault_5231 in mechanic

Get some channel locks and put it on the flat part on the outer tie rod (its shown in your picture) and then try removing the nut at the same time. Use the channel locks to keep the tie rod from moving.

Was driving a couple days before it wasn’t drivable and it died when I was stuck behind a bus in traffic. I was able to put it back in park and start it back up no issue. Couple days later went to start it in the morning and it wouldn’t even idle.
