Calibration, where is your shop located? On my best days I do around 12-15. Lots of competition around here.

Near Pasadena. We're very busy all the time but its been very strange as of late. Today I did 18 but for us that is dead.


The shop owner isnt panicking, but he is getting a bit worried ...

Super slow here. Reminds me of the time a few years ago when DMV didn't know what to charge for the registration fee so none of the reg renewal papers were sent.

  I remember that time , the stupid state gov. in their efforts to acquire more money for their pensions and bonuses , held back the dmv registrations for about two months ! everyone was told that it would not cause them to pay extra late fees , and then when they did come out , we were swamped to the rafters with panicked customers !

Good job Barryman, keep up that attitude, hope you charged accordingly, I would love to start everyday off with those to cars, that's an easy $200.00.

I tell the customer $125 for Previas. Everytime I see a motorhome anywhere even remotely in the vicinity I pray that he keeps on going. We charge $80 but still, its a royal PITA! Vans are a PITA as well ... makes me appreciate the Accords and Camrys all that much more.

[FiendFX]

i charge the vice versa of yours.

2006 s2000 doesn't have air injection anymore..

And no MINI ever had AIR, who else wants to shove that book up the writers ass?

[FiendFX]

My first time doing a mini with no ECS label, I checked the book it said AIR. Hooked up the scanner and check if there is AIR monitor, NO. From then on I learned something about the Motor ECS book.

september numbers of smog for my station are down by 15%. Let see what October brings.

[007]

even though September has felt slow, we are up about 10% over last September, so last year we must have been bouncing off the walls from bordem.

Look like we are moving towards the slowest October.
Better go fishing
