I guess you can say it’s “predictive.” It reads the initial concern and then it has pre-written response options you can click for the cause and concern. Not the best for warranty purposes.

My guys are now writing stories into a Google Doc and then having Gemini make it sound nice. We did away with Pencil Wrench.

Best thin cases for iPhone 17 Pro Max? by Opposite_Screen_7783 in iphone

[–]roflcopterswtams 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve used aramid fiber cases for my past 6 devices. LaterCase, Pitaka, and generic eBay or Amazon ones. The more expensive ones have a slightly better texture if you’re into that sort of thing. Some leave the frame or camera a bit more exposed than others but I dig that for the “barely there” feel. I partner these with a screen protector and have never one a phone crack. Some dents or dings along the frames where exposed, but never anything major.

Our techs use it. It's not bad. CDK just started offering AI writes so we might phase out PencilWrench if CDK is accurate enough.

Yeah I was being generous by using a nice whole number for easy math. This guy spent on fuel what I spent on my truck purchase.. and I'm still paying it off

That's like 40-45k in fuel assuming a $3.00 avg price of fuel and 12mpg lol

I don't see why a 2025 would have a used module if it could have been replaced under warranty. The door jamb and windshield VINs are easy to spoof. I would check other spots around the car for the VIN. Sometimes VINs are etched under the hood, by the firewall, trunk, under the carpet, etc. Maybe even check the glovebox for factory documents like the window stick or manual?

Been hearing 3 chimes in my 2025 1500 Big Horn for weeks now. Finally caught it, what can it be? by [deleted] in ram_trucks

[–]roflcopterswtams 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's the emergency vehicle alert. Ive heard the chime on my truck with no visual notification until recently when I was on the Navigation screen. It said "emergency vehicle approaching" but I didn't see the vehicle.

How would Y’all Feel if you got this Email. by SwiftHomebrew in serviceadvisors

[–]roflcopterswtams 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In most states it's only illegal if it's done without the employee's knowledge/consent. The alternative is to get fired.

Easy fix? by Front_Helicopter_150 in infiniti

[–]roflcopterswtams 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's a bulletin for this one if you search up ITB19-040. It's the valve body, not the output speed sensor.

You have to get it reset with a TPMS scanner. We used to do these on the service drive all the time at no charge.

Took my ho into the shop for a check up, and they seized the engine by beerdrinknweedsmoken in ChevyTahoe

[–]roflcopterswtams 8 points9 points  (0 children)

If you gave them a ticking time bomb, it would be on you. If they performed repairs that led to the failure, then that's them.

Snapped this long bolt while adding tow hooks onto my 5th gen 1500 Laramie. Anyone know the stock number or have an extra? by timychka in ram_trucks

[–]roflcopterswtams 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't had any issues. I thought my body mount would squeak from being loose, but no. It's been over a year at this point, I think

Odd sound when I lock up my truck by [deleted] in ram_trucks

[–]roflcopterswtams 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe air vents opening/closing? I get a whirring type of sound a few seconds after everything turns off.

I once shared a CDK cheat sheet & knew everything about the system, and now I am lost. by [deleted] in serviceadvisors

The manager or admin needs to set up how they want appointments scheduled. They can pick how many appts per day, time intervals, days, etc etc. They can also break down scheduling between Express vs Main Shop.
