On a side note tho

I had a Cameroon homie wit a shop
I had to cut’em off cuz he played the game raw

I mean shyt was bad. Like he had to relocate, change numbers, call the police, fight nikkas(he got washed so bad one time I felt sorry for him and I knew he deserved it), have bytches callin dey fam on him over the course of maybe 2 years. So much shyt

I knew it was time to cut dat nikka off when ppl start calling my phone about THEIR business and I didn’t even know who they were

shyt was wild. Like he was getting ppl cars running up the tab, putting mechanic liens on they shyt and all that. Straight predatory with that shyt

So I understand y’all frustrations

Luckily for me I can work on cars a little bit and if the problem too big for me, I know how to get cars

Bruh trust me. Any mechanic you go to is gon hook they shyt up and see what’s going on even if they don’t charge you for the diagnostic (I can tell you have a trustworthy mechanic, so this might be the case)…unless its something simple. If you tryna get that check engine light off the dash, they have to. Radiator leak or something they can physically see then, na. No reader needed

End of the day you just gotta find a mechanic you trust or just pay a premium at a good shop
Of course,

Checking after free is fine. But if they tried after I told them what it was and talk about charging. They’re sporty thieves.

I had deaded this mechanic shop for talking about doing a test over installing a fukking headlight. I was going there for years too. I’m just always on my guards with car business.

The starter and catalytic converter are bad. Yeah I'm in an area where I would need emissions

The car is low price, $2500
Me personally I wouldn’t fukk with it
AT ALL
The car doesn’t crank/start and it needs a cat?
Nah breh. Hell fukk nah

Is 2500 your budget?
Could you put 500 or maybe even a 1000 into the car you have now and have something reliable?

O yea what was the problem with your car?

I remember I was at this Chrysler dealership and they were taking forever to replace an O2 sensor I'd gotten from them. I told them "What's the issue?" The dude replied it's a complicated procedure. I told him "I've replaced the O2 sensor myself in seconds. Do you want me to show you???" He and the people nearby looked at me shook. :dead: I told them to give me my vehicle immediately,

priceless lmaoooooo

I don't got a budget, I saved alot of money at my McDonalds job lol

He said he's willing to lower the price to $2200

I'm at the point where I'm doing 2 things with car buying

1. Getting my dream car
2. If I can't get it, I'll get a clunker/fixer upper like this one

You got a clunker. Keep stackin

Buyin a car that don’t start is not the move. Especially if you gotta pass emissions
Consider how long it’s been posted too

Mfr might need a motor, transmission, front end rebuilt, fuel pump…ain’t no telling

No cat?!?
nikka gon fukk around and tell you the title on the way in the mail too.
You gon buy that bytch for 2200 and fukk around and have to sell it for a couple hundred just to get it off the property

I can tell you got ya mind made up tho.

Good luck breh

Nah I'm not totally all in on it. I haven't really searched that hard for a used car, just started my search this week
You make good points

The problem with my current car is the radiator needs to be replaced, $860. I could pay for it, but I don't want to drop that money on a 2004 Honda. It has other problems as well. I been down that road before. Putting money into an old car, and then realizing more and more stuff are wrong with it. I'm done with that

#1... Diagnostics before you throw parts at anything.

YOUR mechanic is an idiot.

#2 Year/Make/Model?...also...do you have a check engine light?

#3 Idle issues are either IAC valves, vacuum leaks, or unmetered air.
