Funny Pic Thread VII - No swearing. No sex. No complaining. (READ FIRST POST)

Employee told me he couldn't get to work because he had a flat tire. This is the picture he texted me.

Apart from the painfully obvious copyright notice, I bet that isn't the same type of car said employee has.

Mind you I copied that text because it was not in the image.

Ohhh. Derp.

It's from a site where mechanics post up the unbelieveable crap people turn up with, oblivious to the incredible danger they've put themselves in.

What's the name of the site?

Yes this would be good to waste time on.

Ahh, there's a few, but the most easily accessible is probably the "Justrolledintotheshop" subreddit.

As a mechanic of 15 years, it's frightening how many times I've seen that...

+1 I worked at a autoparts shop for 4 years that turned rotors and we used to get tons of super thin soild rotors and vented ones down to the fins.

 

[Jimlaad43]

Don't they look a bit thin?

Ah. This appears to be true.

 

[Jay.]

The shock mounting, driveshaft gaiter & bushes don't look too good either, looks like they're all caked in rust and other crap. Wheelbearings are probably knackered too looking at the state of everything else.

Solid brake discs are nearly an inch thick. (Ventilated ones are thicker) They wear down maybe 1/32 of an inch every hundred thousand miles. (I am completely making up these numbers, but they should help you visualize).

Now figure out how stupid or bad a driver you have to be to wear them down to almost nothing?

Surely in this time, you would have had pads replaced a number of times? or else with that kind of wear you would literally have nothing to brake with... so surely somewhere there must be some ass-brained mechanic that didn't notice?

.. I had totally brake failure once, discovered it at about 60mph on the dual carriageway from Camborne edit Redruth. Popped master cylinder.

edit 2: I am so tired. English is poor what isn't it.

Yep could have been done by a "shadetree mechanic" IE the owner.

This was funny, reminds me of the black up meme from a few years ago.

This gets me Every. Single. Time. And then your passenger is like "why are you pounding the floor with your foot?"

 

[granturismite]

The worst is accidentaly slamming on the brakes when attempting to gear down, making everyone fly to the windscreen

Stupid girl thought laying on the railroad bridge would be funny.

I don't think I'll see a better picture than that Mclaren for the rest of the year.

I recently observed the crime-ravaged Vancouver suburb area.
