The client wanted us to do a quick job and beat the timelines. But no that’s not what @PrecisionAutoKE is about. A car that looked great on the outside turned out to be a rusty piece of metal once we removed the seats. Quality work takes time.

Being excited because your car started is very sad. I mean , thats exactly what it is supposed to do.
The joy of owning a Jalopy is that you celebrate everytime the car starts ! Like now tell me why we won't hold a party cos she has started with the first attempt in the morning. Damn I've got smiles all over ! My hardwork hasn't gone to waste !!!

BMW turbo fails or damaged? Oil starvation's usually the culprit caused by blocked lines, dodgy oil changes, or just using the wrong oil, man. Next thing you know, bearings are worn, turbo's dead. You might experience these eventually inclusive of loss of power, black smoke,

Another problem we have is people who drive manual and they think they are better drivers than those who drive automatic.

Whenever you step onto the road, remember that it is God who controls destiny. No one plans to be involved in an accident. Therefore, do not be proud or boastful just because you have never had one. Every time you arrive home safely, it is by God’s grace and mercy. Shukuru

Sucks having rust under your ride. It's like a silent killer, man! Usually happens when moisture, water, mud, or salt, this is also common if you are at coastal areas and if your car is from there too and are the worst because they get the chance to play with your car's

Timing chain noise got you stressed? It's usually down to a few things: worn out or stretched chain, a tensioner that's on its way out, or damaged guides and all these let the chain slacken up and start rattling like crazy, especially on cold starts. Low oil levels, wrong

If people were honest, project cars turn drivers into mechanics and drain bank accounts. You’re also left exhausted financially and emotionally. You must invest heavily in a build before it becomes truly reliable. But the big questions are ; How much does it actually cost to
Nothing much going on here. Just me trying to start the car and get to work. It's more frustrating having to do this by the highway or on a hotel/office parking lot after a business meeting . Doesn't have to be like this. Project cars should be fun not pain. We will be taking

Hey @ISokwala , tell her I've been where she is now & working for the same company she's working for & here's my advice that she never asked for . Women in Automotive Engineering? Yes absolutely. But with honesty. Some professions are male dominated for a reason, and that’s

Oh boy project cars are not for everyone that one I can assure you. The fun bit you've mentioned that I like is the nut and bolt restoration 💯 changing components as you go accumulate to you having a perfectly running car in the long run. Which is a win. And if you don't have
Many people see project cars that are cheap to buy and feel tempted to go for them. However, when we post the things these cars can do, we often completely and deliberately avoid talking about the real issues they come with. “Buy and drive” project cars don’t exist. They are

A very interesting and brutally honest conversation that many people rarely talk about. I can almost bet that a nut-and-bolt restoration may appear expensive at first, but in the long run it is often cheaper and gives you true peace of mind knowing you can fully rely on your

Shortcuts bring or leave a lot of unsolved problems. This Hilux had a full paint job done on it but I was still restless feeling we had left something out and I asked my team to pull out the seats and interior and to my surprise we found rust dents that were so serious. Here
