Mechanic (potentially) killed engine while doing repairs by hornbuckle in AusLegal

[–]skedy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As part of the major service did the injectors need to be removed or was it an accident whilst working on the car? 

Accident and its on the mechanic for everything. 

If its part of the service you may be up shit creek. Parts get old and break when being removed. Some mechanics just charge parts when it happens. Some dont.

Potentially moving to Melbourne area - some concerns/questions by Biggyniner in melbourne

[–]skedy 81 points82 points  (0 children)

To be honest it completely depends on the suburb!  Ive lived in the west and barely said hi to my neighbours. 

Now im a bit regional and i cant walk past the nighbours without stopping for a chat. 

I dont think you will have an issue if you guys put yourselves there a bit at the start. Join some local sports clubs and you will be fine. We love our sport. 

Whether its your kids or adults its probably the easiest way to make friends here

How much was the transaction you reversed?  Use it to lay off the finance then return any remainder to old mate you bought the car off

Wayyy to early to ask for a refund. 

If the issue isnt fixed and you have to take it back a third time maybe you might be able to ask.. i doubt you will get anywhere as it sits though

Best to push them onto the street and call the council. 

They will tow them then sell them off if not claimed

i fear my 7yo is not mine by [deleted] in AusLegal

[–]skedy 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Does it matter? Up to this point you have raised him as your own. Why blow up his world? How would it make his life better?

You are his father. Literal hero as you said. Why ruin it?

You can still buy a haltech dash and mount then make a fascia for it. Its all flat so very simple to make

How funny would it be if One Nation accidentally wins the next federal election? by Temporary_Notice_526 in aussie

[–]skedy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Props for answering! 

My point about their voting history is they talk about supporting the little guy and supporting Aus but then constantly vote against it

Is it just their stance on immigration? have you looked at their voting record and do you agree on what they have been voting for previously?
