Just a little bit to add to cav551 post which was excellent…In a dealership ,you will also have the lads who are quiet happy doing servicing ,and have no wish to get involved in technical issues…Though you need allsorts to make a workshop operate ,personally I detest servicing ,and having done DAFs Master Tech course I am quiet happy that I may do a handful of servicing a year …Again as cav551 stated ,I generally do not worry about times ,it’s more of getting a first time fix,more so with how they are getting more complicated …Another thing that can hinder so people progressing ,is once someone has done a job once ,the gaffers generally always give that job to said person as they done it before successfully …EURO 6 being an example ,a lot of faults may be the first time a dealer may have saw it …So Master Tech gets it ,due to (again as cav says) Their thought process is different and they will look at inactive errors for a clue ,if there is an intermittent fault…Sadly not all manufacturers are fully trained before a new model is launched…Due to dealer standards ,new starts are quickly sent on relevant courses when they are availableShould have been a politician.SOB who knows jack.
But I got the “certificates”Had some clever sob the other day with a stuck trailer hub told this “technician” too use a fork truck.Thick sob asked “why”
Dumb pillock.Any of you "clever " boys know what the hell Im talkin about?Ive used forklifts for many things i shouldnt off but never to remove a stuck hub whats your trick?
So you got a stuck hub that needs to come off and you got a fork truck?
So you ■■? or is this a little too “technical” for you.You wrap a chain round the hub ,you fasten the chain round the forklift tow pin and you give it a good pull.
Or you do as most “technicians” do ,Stand there with your finger up your ■■■ and get sod all done.The hub has to come off so get on with it instead of expecting somebody else to solve the problem.
Excellent idea and if that fails and i pull the trailer down the pit i can use the forklift to lift it out brilliant!
