Thanks for the replies guys. How in depth are these books? I’ve tried my luck with some websites, looking at the brake system explanations most of the time there’s no mention of metering/proportioning valves and it’s disappointing. Also usually nothing on how ABS works. You’d think they’d at least be mentioned.

I’m pretty sure 0w20 is always full synthetic (as in conventional 0w20 doesn’t exist).

That way of apprenticeship sounds to be the best. I try to do that with our master tech as much as possible but sometimes he’s not so willing to let me put a wrench on it. Or is pissed and doesn’t feel like answering questions (and I get it. I’ve trained people, it slows you down and is rather annoying. I feel for him, but at the same time that doesn’t help me out much).

Think an indie shop would be better? Saw a bunch of people talking about that. I’d be willing to bet it has a smaller car count, could be beneficial in terms of not being hurried and able to watch a job being performed in its entirety.

[quote=”ToyotaKarl” post=142881]Welcome to the board, I have moved your thread from Service and Repair to the Technicians forum.

All the best…

My apoligies, I was in this forum originally but it timed me out and defaulted to the other forum I suppose. Figured I’d let a mod move it instead of reposting. Thank you.
