In this video I hurry along as fast as I can while I fix a customers Buick LaCrosse. We are down to the wire at the end of the day and still have to knock out a 4 wheel brake job, 4 tire balance, a couple of wipers and a left rear bearing in under one and a half hours. Will it get done and done well?
-Enjoy!

Do U prefer air impact over battery operated impacts??Just would like your opinion?
Should have been a count down timer then we would have known how long Mrs O was yelling at you.
I always watch the videos does a great job 👏
What about thin film of high temp grease on all rusted surfaces ? Good solid work…👍
If I was doing this job, right when I opened the parts boxes, they would have been the wrong parts.
Mrs O exposes shopfloor slackers 😜😜😜
those brakes and suspension looks just like on my vauxhall insignia 😀😀😀
It's a good thing you don't have to inspect it. Have you started using your new inspection machine yet? What a marvel of engineering in hardware and software. I literally could have done your lacrosse job faster then I was able to get an inspection done with NYVIP3. Your patience is top notch, and it's a good thing, you're going to need it!
Definitely agree with charging book time, otherwise, the better mechanics would be penalized for being better and faster while worse mechanics would get to charge more just because they arent as good as the other guy.
I really dont understand why you need to torque the caliper bracket tree times in a row ???? Please explain this to me cause i torque them to a specific lb/ft, am i missing something?
Service Advisors. Aren't they just the worst? Especially the ones you married. 😀
