Too bad. It could make for a good discussion. However, my point was simply that one shouldn't simply ask anyone to trust someone else simply because of their position/profession. If one is going to use their experience and knowledge, their observations should be shared if they want to make a good point.fbpem1 wrote:That is actually proprietary information sir.
It is better, but its still a run-on sentence. Ultimately, I agree with you though. But its obvious its not something as simple as a valve stem seal if Corporate is approving motor replacements.fbpem1 wrote:is this better?
A VQ35 with the oil consumption issue smokes all the time not only on deceleration which would not be attributed to issue good old sbd stated.
Interestingly, my buddy has/had a 350Z (Not sure if he sold it yet) that has an oil burning problem. Oddly, it consumes more oil than my turbo with a leaky seal ever did, but you can't smell burnt oil or see any smoke. He even had me drive it for a week while he was out on his honeymoon to see if I notice anything. I literally saw it consume a quart within that week.
This is true in any profession. But at the same time those in the profession can sometimes each of their customers are individuals. I had to fight the same type of feeling everyday when I was a claims adjuster. It was essential to my job in fact, otherwise I'd end up with poorly handled investigations and weak arguments if my case was subjected to arbitration or trial.fbpem1 wrote:Also everyone don't forget i'm a cunsumer as well maybe I'm different becuase i see it from the other side all day long and customers making stinks about things they really shouldn't and not taking any responsability for thier actions with the vehicle. So maybe i did jump to a conclusion maybe i didn't with Joe, but i still could be right =P i don't know no one does except him if he abuses the car. Personally i don't care i'll put a trans in it for him and probably not charge him for removing the aftermarket exhaust and only 1 labor hour to index the new flywheel and clutch install on top of no payment. Like me don't like me whatever, i'm good at what i do and i'm very fair someone can back me up on that i'm sure.
Curious, what exactly has to be indexed? I understand there is a hall effect sensor to measure engine speed/position or something built into the flywheel, but its not indexed during the manufacturing process with a pin or something?
Who and what you are to someone else is purely based on what that person perceives. Kind of like the point I made above, telling us who you are means nothing. The perception of you will likely be based on what people actually percieve. Saying we don't get you changes nothing. You can maintain your personality and that's fine (so long as you stay within the rules of the forum). But don't expect people to have a great opinion of you if everything you say tends to piss people off. By the way, the people don't get me comment sounds horribly emo.fbpem1 wrote:I do work with people actually i have an excellent relationship with ALL of my customers no matter who they are, good old Mr. Steve can vouch for that. I'm a nice guy you just DO NOT get me that's all.
Plethora of info? You still haven't told us what is causing the oil consumption.fbpem1 wrote:Now for SBD, NO i DO NOT like him or what he does I'm sure that's been made clear time and time again, oh well can't like everyone. Although with what your doing I'm beginning to not like you as well reason being is your getting NOTHING from anything i post up here and if you look between those "pompous" comments there's a plethora of information there your looking right past that to a few things i have said. If you want to be that way fine whatever just don't respond at all go away no skin off of my back at all.
I imagine regardless of if its warranty work or not, you have to be making something for doing the work. Would you rather he not bring you the work?fbpem1 wrote:Joe, I mean all i ask is that people look on the other side of the fence with issues like these, I apologize for the customer bashing which wasn't really bashing just had a streak of "not my falters" one guy has had 3 transmissions, 2 motors, and now he blew his rear I'm done with it.
We don't generally hound people for grammar so long as it is reasonably understandable. We are not here to write college papers. Errors occur. I'm definitely not without spelling and grammatical errors. The issue I brought up was simply that I didn't understand the sentence. I could read it two ways. It happens. Which is why I asked you to clarify it. No harm no foul.fbpem1 wrote:Also one more thing, for those who think my typing and spelling skills are sub par I type extremely fast and could care less about spelling spell check doesn't work here on my browser get over it
