So, I'm a Honda tech now.
 
I just started working at a local dealership this past thursday. It's nice to finally have a regular, real job. It's looking like I'm going to be the oil change bitch for a few weeks though. :happysad:

or months but sweet :)

watch out for them CRVs :(

From reading you're threads/ posts I would have thought you had no mechanical inclination whatsoever... JK! :)

But that's cool for now though right. The simple job gives you a good couple of weeks to get adjusted to the shops flow, or lack thereof I guess.

Yep, that's the plan. I'm having a hard enough time memorizing everyone's names, the actual job is the easy part.

what's wrong with a CRV?

What sort of credentials do you have to have?
I'd love to get a job at my local Honda dealer doing something.
But anyways that's awesome. :thumbup:

Sometimes on the first oil change, the original filter gasket sticks to the block. Careless mechanics put the new filter overtop, which means you now have a leaky double-gasket situation. Oil drips onto the hot exhaust manifold and the car bursts into flames. The problem has been pretty much resolved now.

A lot of driveway mechanic work... and I know a guy that works there (HatchVX on the forum.)

that's really cool. i'd like to work at a Honda/Acura dealership shop, but that would make my degree useless.
