Who is John Galt?
Tbh the Better mechanics, the more workload u get. In return u get stressed out, and miserable...😂 and yes u want to leave, Here in the Uk , is the same problem for Techs., probably a world wide problem,, with a Big "master " technician shortage..
I have the same problem on my 2015 jk I bought Flip kit, aluminum RPM it been 6 months that I’m dealing with this issue my car wonder all over the freeway, especially when I go over 70 miles
Do you have 10.4 inch D1 MAX stand for sale?
I do! It’s on my website! ToolCraftOrganizers.com
@@Collindraker I only see d1 pro but i think that holes are the same? But do you ship to Europe ?
My experience has been the amount of stealing by the service manager arch manager service managers in this business.Never mind their service advisers.Selling things you don't need on purpose to steal your money making the automotive business an awkward place to be
We're gonna get mechanics Union and put all these dealers out of business.
I totally agree. You speaking the truth. I’m leaving this field. No matter how hard you work, still feel unappreciated and feel like you’re fighting for every minute of time that you deserve. A lot of shops don’t pay for your time to help techs, ask to help a customer for no pay, no diag pay, warranty time sucks. Overall not worth a field to go into. All these new vehicles are so sophisticated, it’s crazy. Flat rate just sucks.
Thanks to the car dealerships Stay away from Corporate companies Fact
You should do what I do. I make $30,000-$40,000 a month. Monday through Friday during the day and so on. I would never think about being a mechanic and messing with that crap all the time. I would never think about driving a truck or mowing yards or any of that mess.I caught onto America’s best secret about nine years or I guess you could say about $4 million ago
I was about to buy a D1 Max because they are on sale, but I noticed that the updates were twice as expensive making wonder what else it must have. I really wish the websites were more clear about individual differences between models.
I got the D1 max few days ago on amazon
Fair call ... negative/positive commentary is fine ..... just constant negative commentary becomes annoying eventually
Thank you for the great review video. Is this still your daily scan tool you use most of the time?
It sure is!
@@Collindraker Thank you for confirming, it says alot. As a repair shop owner, am always looking for the next best thing that cost less than my current Autel and Matco oldies. I am subscribing to your ch now.
As a former auto tech for 25 years I agree 100% with what is being said here.
Can you make that stand so it does not cover the camera?
I can.
If you can do that, I will buy it right away
Why i left, sick of being there 50 hrs to make 20-25 and watching people that couldn't diagnose vehicles get all the easy crap
That’s why I only use mastercraft tools I can walk to the store and replace them for free
LoL and your at a dealer working on one brand of car lol I have to have every tool and knowledge to work on every brand.
I hate working on all brands
Nope not a chance. Plastic can crack and explode out under weight and pressure. I don’t need a ticking time bomb on top of my safety device.
It’s not plastic. It’s rubber. I’m not that naïve.
Nice work.
Thanks!
I would buy it.
Does the kickstand fit the d1 max?
I don’t know honestly. I don’t have one and I don’t know any one with one to ask them basic measurements to find out. Do you have one?
My best day working on cars will be my last day.
Is this the otofix d1 pro or proS ?
D1 pro. I dont believe pro s is a model? I don’t think.
@@Collindraker it is. I’ll try to share the link. It has Android 11 front 5mp back 16mp 10.4 screen
@Collindraker I have the otofix D1 Pro S. It's basically the same scanner but the D1 Pro S is the 2024 model. D1 Pro S pros: 10.4 inch screen 2000×1200 higher resolution (D1 Pro is 1920x1200) Runs android 11.0(D1 Pro is 10) Front facing camera( D1 Pro doesn't have a front facing camera) Is lighter and thinner Cons: Smaller battery 7250mah(D1 Pro has a 15000mah battery) It doesn't have the HDMI ports Overall it's an awesome powerful scan tool and I'm sure no matter what choice you go with you'll definitely be happy with either one.
@@crunkwun finally got mine and love it !
What wall thickness did you choose?
1/16 if I remember correctly or possibly 1/8
Those are absolutely not rebranded MAC RBRT. Not even close. I own both and the design of the anti rounding technology is completely different. Not that the capri aren’t good wrenches, but they are most certainly not rebranded MAC RBRT.
Yes. You are correct on that one.
Is there a website to buy this from
Ya my website is ToolCraftOrganizers.com!
Great video! Do you make these for sale or just as a hobby?
Yes! My website is ToolCraftOrganizers.com!
Yes, the D1 Lite has bidirectional functions and it also does coding come some brands like, vw, kia and newer models
I was going to say I have the d1 lite, and it is definitely bi-directional and some coding
@@pneumaticdez23 yeah. It's good for the price
The problem is similar to the problem with women. SIMPS. But work simps. If men didn’t put up with the bs women pull then they wouldn’t act that way. If techs didn’t put up with the dealership bs then they wouldn’t act that way. I mean honestly, how the heck did getting paid only 50% of what you should EVER fly? Why was there not an industry wide revolt? The manufacturer should absorb ANY warranty cost, NOT the tech, or even the dealership, that’s theft. I just cannot fathom why people put up with this crap. I’d rather live on the street and I’d take my family with me! Ok, actually I’d work as a greeter at Walmart but you get my drift! Also, the way they charge less when a tech beats the book time is sooo short sighted and frankly, dumb. The proficient tech gets less money for all their experience and then the customer gets bent out of shape when they get sticker shock next time for the same job but a less experienced tech is doing it and the dealership charges the full book time, which rubs the customer the wrong way. Beating the book times is not cheating or taking advantage, it’s the FOUNDATION of the whole industry. The goal is to gain experience over years and reap the benefits on the latter half of your career for the hours you sacrificed and didn’t get paid for in the former half. Beating the book is how pros get compensation for their skills while completing the job in the allotted time is how rookies get paid but have time to learn. Undercutting the system is foolish.
I did get a new end and fixed that same problem.
To all the mechanics out there be thankful to God that that you're able to do something and fix practically anything in a lot that a lot of people can't fix but with that being said the stuff gets old it gets tiring laying outside in the cold being outside baking in the Sun problems with parts wrong parts fixing something and having things come back no one wants to pay good everybody wants your work for nothing where where there are other jobs where you can make the same money or better without all the stress
Every dealership I’ve ever worked at I’ve always had to bump heads with parts department and often get in arguments with their boss cause they never cared about how often they ordered wrong parts and how they would threaten to charge the techs for supposedly allegedly ordering wrong parts that had to get sent back
A couple of days ago. I change a radiator hose on a semi truck on the freeway, took me two hour, got paid $500 dollars on the same day, next day. swap out alternator to a 2013 Nissan Altima. Took me 4 hour. got paid $700. Yes I am a mobile mechanic 😎
The flat rate system has been around over 60+ years, without any revision. That pay plan has a very secure position, unfortunately. The top 10-20% of earners work to keep the system in place.
Any chance you can do a slight tweak? I need something taller for my angled wrenches, but dont need to make the entire x scale that large.
Your best bet would be to export the stl into fusion and convert from mesh to solid and do your modifications there.
I didn't see the stand that can hold to the steering wheel on your website
I know. im slacking. i forgot to get product photos. will be up tomorrow! sorry about that.
So I just bought the ms906 pro. I know I need Auto Auth to erase codes on Chrysler . I could not even get it to read codes on a 2015 Ram. Does that sound right?
No. I don’t think autoauth is a thing until 2018
Good review. Does it have topology?
No it doesn't.
@@raymondboots6089 deal breaker
Im wanting to get one but not sure if it does what i need it to. After accidents can it reset things like airbags, sensors and that type of things or is it a more basic scanner. I need it for collision related applications. Thanks!
It can reset all those things. There are limits though. I used this tool a lot when I was a mobile calibration tech for body shops. Some calibrations as well as reseting an airbag module ( if manufacturers allow it ) may still need to be performed by a factory scan tool. But, that is a very rare. For 95% of things, this tool will do it. Go check out my new review on the Otofix d1 pro. Same tool but cheaper!
@@Collindraker oh thats awesome then. What are some of the calibrations you mostly did and how exactly do you charge.
No one talking about the headlight fluid all over the floor???
Not relevant
General motors and Ford are fixing to be hiring A massive amount of warranty technicians very, very soon. 😂
Fill me in! What’s the news?
Why is that
Can you check long/short term fuel trims?
yes you can! i have a review coming on the otofix scan tool. a much more affordable and just as capable scan tool.
Can you do it on this scan tool though? I tried it on a 2020 kia and i had no option for it.
I paid almost 2k for it. Smh
Just ordered a bunch! Can’t wait to get them. -Andrew from Idaho
I saw that Andrew! Thank you for your order. I just ran out of grey filament and won’t see any more until hopefully Sunday. I do have silver or white if you want a different color or we will just have to wait until I get more grey.
@@Collindraker white would be best! I was going for a Red-White-Blue theme 👍
@@SpeedySpears that’s what I figured! I didn’t think white would be popular! It’s all printing as we speak my man! Thank you again for supporting me!
Definitely gonna pick up the “low bro file” ratchet organizer, “the big shot” wrench organizer & “the unsprung” plier organizer. They’re all modular & look to be miles ahead of the competition 👍
Thank you for the support! I gotta make sure all these big companies see this.
Bro quit using the AI voice.
I like the A.i. voice
We as techs ,under ele repairs ,,,there are two times $$$that we can claim ,,,1st is a minor repair = .8 hr and major repair = 1.4 hr, guess what its a ele problem in the dash, it has to be removed and fix for 1.4 and it takes 8 hours i loss
U have to know rocket science. And everything about a car for pennies and get treaded like a popper.
Professional....yeah. I know plenty of "professionals" who need their tools taken away. A certificate from uti or a trade school does NOT MAKE YOU A PROFESSIONAL... Professional told me a car in our shop had no timing issue. Never took cover off crankshaft...what do you know. Chain chain tensioner gone. Cams still in time though...
what does that have to do with this video?
Go work at McDonald’s for a few months and come back here and let us know if you found that easier . Or better yet , get fired and let us know how food stamps are easier .. I’m fully employed but I understand perspective is everything
You must think I’m complaining 😂
@@Collindraker you are Complaining. Complaining is verb that expresses dissatisfaction. I didn’t say you are complaining but you correctly just pointed out that you are indeed complaining 🤣 if you arnt complaining please educate me , what verb or adjective would you use to describe what you’ve said in the short video ?
Could you offer a combat green or an olive green? especially in your horizontal ratchet organizers, I have a combat green snap-on box and would love for them to match!
Shoot me an email at info@toolcraftorganizers.com. I can make that happen for ya.
