Got this repair order today. ( sorry my pic is crooked). Anyone want to guess what I found when I took the car and the customer around the block?

Loose hubcap? Wire wheels?

Christmas ornaments hung from the mirror! Complete with working bells. When you step on the brakes they rattle.

Wow and I thought my echolocation was bad!

We had a car in that made weird noises from the wheels. None of us could replicate it on the test drive so the service advisor contacted the client again: turns outit only did when turning right. Still couldn't replicate it, so we asked her to come in and take a drive with a mechanic next to her.

so she came, and they went off. In the end it turns out it did it in 1 specific corner, the on-ramp for the highway where there's a rumble strip embedded in the road markings.......

I would hope the customer was really embarrassed.

I found a loose lug nut inside a hubcap when my niece complained about a noise that only happened when driving slowly.

 

[bullwinkle]

Hope they gave you an early Christmas present! (For your honesty!)

So what did it pay? 2.0 hours? 2.5?
