2024.05.14 05:20 not-halsey Questions for all my independent automotive repair shop owners/others in the automotive space

Open to hearing from anyone else in the automotive industry as well. Or any other blue collar trade, for that matter.
I spent a few years in automotive shops as a tech, before I went full time into software development. I dealt with several different DMS systems and related softwares. The ones I dealt with were either clunky, slow, or just not user friendly. They worked, and they did their job, but that was about it. I spent a lot of time brainstorming about what I could do differently if i were to build one of these systems.
I know there's several big players in the space when it comes to independent shop systems, like Mitchell1 and AllData, and I know they do their jobs pretty well. But I'm also fully aware these options don't work for everyone. I have a buddy who runs a small shop that I've talked to about this. I've read the complaints of others as well.
I want to hear the perspective of some other shop owners and other people in the auto industry. Do you like the software options you have? What do they do well, and what do you wish they could do differently? Is there a market out there for custom shop management system development, or custom integrations? Or even another SaaS option?
Also, what kind of caveats do I run into if I do build one of these systems? I know a full scale DMS system would require a larger team than I have, a lot of time, and manufacturer approvals, but a full DMS isn't really on my radar right now.

2024.05.13 22:29 goodnewsjimdotcom GAME RELEASE! Starfighter General first official lasting MMO patch. Space is boring, so you must design around making it fun, and all good mmos now are designed around end game.

A video of some random game play: https://youtu.be/EK2xB3xCFjQ

If you want to jump in and play: https://store.steampowered.com/app/658480/Starfighter_General/

I'm trying to make the spiritual successor to Xwing for 90s DOS everyone craved, but Lucas Arts never delivered. I was also inspired by Wing Commander Privateer who's title led me to imagining building a giant fleet by buying more and more ships and making friends.
It has a bunch of bugs but these will be fixed in a week or two. It's still pretty fun and a base by which a HUGE HUGE potential WOW killer will be made on. fairly long patch notes of a subset of what I plan on doing in the future are at the bottom.

My take Diablo2 skill tree/Path of Exile Talent tree: https://youtu.be/E8h9E4lw2jk?si=LVK8hQOtWez6Riwy&t=16 Very pretty to watch.

I'm exhausted... I spent close to a year on this patch... And the last 3 months was nothing but sleep, code, sleep, code, body necessities, balanced against being stress sick, normal sick, and trying not to break down due to being isolated non stop working... About 2000 hours in this patch alone, on top of 10,000 hours in the past 6 years before that, and I use an anthology of game resources that took me 20,000 hours to make. There's some bugs due to Unity compiling standalone improper from editor, but they'll be fixed, as well as the story line not in... It's a spoiler, but people say my SCI FI is better than any scifi man's ever written, it's at least good:

Cut scene spoiler of next patch assemble link by hand:

Future Patches ->Non Stop Missions in Star System Sol until that story arc panned out and the next enters.

->Better UI hull/shields/armoetc such as NES style Brick Icons for stats ->Transfer between shields/thrusteweapons power
->more sanity loss special effects
->Radar
->Better targetting
->Multi Targetting of friend/foe/neutral/quest...
->Fleet General Commands to allies of flight style: ie defend me, skirmish(fight optimally), attack target, bomb target, evasive manuevars, flee(rout) ta
->Weapon escalation: I) rockets/homing missile/cluster rockets, rocket spam mitigated by chaff, ECM, or a bold force shield ejection II) Lasers will always hit, and heat up your ship, so you're encouraged to rotate your ship's sides to absorb heat in multiple places. III) Bombs you need to travel in a straight line without much damage for 7 seconds ->very long range for shelling bases out of turret range IV) Rail Gun V) Destroyers/Capital Ships VI)

->Secret, get ingame podcasts when available by hitting alt+p, ALT+P AGAIN CYCLES THROUGH THEM, CTRL+P CLOSES EM,
-Memento system
-Scientific items system elaborations evident
-power recover of various systems rates, shots costing powers
-Allegiance & Dark Allegiance system where by helping others or the illusion of helping them raises your power, fame, and status in the Galaxy.
-Live Omnipotent roleplay
--MMO Mode leaderboards such as EXP
--More enemies with fun catch phrases?
--what ASPECTS DO YOU WANT WORKED ON MORE? Send ideas and buy triderium. Forums or email is cool.
--multi drops, more rares, uncommons
--more advanced inventory->Scroll deeper, limited by volume, weight slows your thrust + adds collision damage & kickback, sort with different filters, better descriprtion, items catch on fire in inventory, emit toxic gases, melt, get destroyed by oncoming heat attacks or collisions
--Ability to dimensionally recover items picked up previous session... You have em saved on server, just can't see when you load until next patch.... Use upgrades when you got em!
-Conquer Stars and setting taxes and laws
-story history replay dialogue
-more achievements
-Asteroids properly breakinto more than oen
-Give android race an android sounding voice
--Three forms of Ground Combat: GROUND COMBAT FORM I) One is a classical First Person Shooter (FPS) with vehicles.
GROUND COMBAT FORM II) One is tactical Real Time Turn Based Game(RTTG) from top down, almost isometric. RTTG will give you the feel of a classic orthogonic chess like game with cover, vision and such, yet everyone plays at the same time. RTTG mode happens when you enter populated towns, not because the server can't handle infinite players in a small zone, but because it feels more intense when any action and fight can start from the shadows. Movement is freer and faster when no one has fights going on nearby.
GROUND COMBAT FORM III)One is a 3d Fighter Game you'd see in Arcades from the 90s, but with the ability to change targets.
Starfighter General is the Everything Game. And it's for real. Let me know what you want me to dev next. Virtual Goods buys lets me sub contract parts out to make the game faster. Talk about what you want, and if you got the money, be a driver, push this game's development faster. I'm a 64x coder, people who meet me don't believe people like me exist, so I get things done... I just have literally 0$ funding at the moment. You'll see things in Starfighter General you thought were impossible and things never done before... Be a believer, or heck, just play and enjoy.
KNOWN BUGS: 1) Iron ore is called a book 2) Collision detection on giant space ships is clunky and can be very annoying if you get close 3) Vision obscuring of mesh fog in junk yard 4) Laser angle not straight 5) TEXT RENDDER DEPTH of chatting aliens, or targetting computer needs fixed so always visible.
Enable Prime Skils(21):
Attribute is the attribute that influences the skill, Min Int is the minimum intelligence to acquire skill, skill point costs is the number of skill points required (each intelligence you get 1 point), and the name, well, that's the Name:
Mining ships, transport friggates, shipping containers, tugs, destroyers, capital ships, limi
Closing about determination and the long play... If you're of meager means like myself... You can enjoy the challenge MMODE over the long haul... Always getting stronger, never weaker, the ship upgrades, your level, your ascended masteries, your money, your credits, and most of all your own skill level and reflexes that you don't notice but is always increasing.

Talk about what you want, and if you got the money, be a driver, push this game's development faster. I'm a 64x coder, people who meet me don't believe people like me exist, so I get things done... I just have literally 0$ funding at the moment. You'll see things in Starfighter General you thought were impossible and things never done before... Be a believer, or heck, just play and enjoy.
KNOWN BUGS: 1) Iron ore is called a book 2) Collision detection on giant space ships is clunky and can be very annoying if you get close 3) Vision obscuring of mesh fog in junk yard 4) Laser angle not straight 5) TEXT RENDDER DEPTH of chatting aliens, or targetting computer needs fixed so always visible.
Enable Prime Skils(21):
Attribute is the attribute that influences the skill, Min Int is the minimum intelligence to acquire skill, skill point costs is the number of skill points required (each intelligence you get 1 point), and the name, well, that's the Name:
Mining ships, transport friggates, shipping containers, tugs, destroyers, capital ships, limi
Closing about determination and the long play... If you're of meager means like myself... You can enjoy the challenge MMODE over the long haul... Always getting stronger, never weaker, the ship upgrades, your level, your ascended masteries, your money, your credits, and most of all your own skill level and reflexes that you don't notice but is always increasing.

2024.05.13 21:03 TheeFearlessChicken 2011 Acura TL SH-AWD

After 165,000 miles I finally changed the timing belt. I'm impressed with the robust low end power, and all in all the dealership did a solid job.
I know I have had an oil leak for a bit, the dealership took a look, and suggested that it was time to replace the oil pan.
They also made some comments about the camshaft. Now, I know this is a lot of work on a car that is 14 years old, but I can't help it. I love the style and, the devil you know is sometimes better than the devil you don't know. So, I want to keep the car.
Having said that, I will need to replace the oil pan, and in short order I will probably have to have the camshaft looked at.
So, any advice would be appreciated. I can't do them both at the same time so what would you recommend first.
Also my automotive repair skills fall somewhere in the neighborhood of Homer Simpson. In other words... This is not a job I can do myself.
Thank you for checking out the post, and any help would be greatly appreciated.

2024.05.13 05:54 LadyA052 Stuck with repeated failures of same part, 2017 Ford Focus

I made the mistake of buying a used 2017 Ford Focus, not knowing that year's model had terrible sealed automatic transmissions. I've had the car not even 3 years, 6500 miles, and I've already had to have the clutch replaced twice (inside the trans so the whole thing has to come out). First clutch replacement was Aamco. Cost almost $2k because of so much work. It failed two months out of warranty. Took it to the dealership. They said the clutch itself was actually under warranty, but I had to pay $700 for additional stuff that Aamco should have replaced. They had my car for almost a month, getting warranty work approved. It was tough being without a car for that long. 1500 miles later, it's failing again. I'm a senior female on social security and I am at a loss. I do not want to put any more money in this car, but I cannot afford another car. I've talked to the Ford complaint department and I will get a reply next Friday! I'm waiting for a callback from the bureau of automotive repair. I've left messages at the dealership and they're not calling me back. Gee I wonder why. I don't want this car. I'm afraid to drive it and be stranded somewhere. The first failure occurred on the freeway at high speeds...would not shift down. Scared the crap out of me. Recently got stuck in passing gear on the freeway for about 5 seconds after I took my foot off the gas. Barely missed the car I was trying to avoid. Just shoot me now. Anybody have an inside contact at Ford? Please??

Unveiling the Mystery: A Guide to Car Dashboard Lights

Understanding Car Dashboard Lights: A Comprehensive Guide

Have you ever been startled by a bright light on your car’s dashboard while cruising down the road? Those symbols and lights might seem cryptic at first, but fear not! They’re actually your car’s way of communicating with you. This guide will shed light (pun intended!) on the most common car dashboard lights, helping you understand their meaning and ensuring a safe and informed driving experience.
Understanding Car Dashboard Lights:
Car dashboard lights come in a variety of colours, each with a specific message. Let’s break down the most common ones:
  • Green/Blue Lights: These typically indicate that a system is functioning properly, like headlights or low beams. They’re generally your friendly neighbourhood lights, letting you know everything’s running smoothly.
  • Yellow/Orange Lights: These are warning lights, and while not an immediate emergency, they signal a potential issue that needs attention soon. Think of them as gentle nudges from your car, saying, “Hey, something might be up, let’s get that checked out!” Examples include low tire pressure or a malfunctioning engine temperature gauge.
  • Red Lights: These denote a serious problem that requires immediate action. Pull over safely and consult your car’s manual or seek professional help. Red lights are like your car screaming “STOP!”, so don’t ignore them!
Common Car Warning Lights:
Now that we understand the colour scheme, let’s delve into some of the most common car warning lights you might encounter:
  • Check Engine Light: This is the most notorious light, and it can indicate a wide range of issues, from a loose gas cap to a more serious problem. Don’t panic, but don’t ignore it either! Get your car checked by a mechanic to diagnose the problem. Think of it as a general “check-up” reminder from your car.
https://preview.redd.it/cypj301ds30d1.png?width=275&format=png&auto=webp&s=0803beb5f07e1bbe92ca06bc9f171df6ccddeec2
  • Oil Pressure Warning Light: This signifies a lack of oil pressure, essential for engine lubrication. It’s like a red oil can screaming “I’m running low!”. Pull over immediately and turn off the engine to avoid further damage. Ignoring this light can lead to expensive engine repairs.
https://preview.redd.it/9spv1qc9s30d1.png?width=300&format=png&auto=webp&s=32c88ec33358215347d5fd6257817c0cd90b2ffa
  • Battery Warning Light: A failing battery can leave you stranded. This light often looks like a car battery, so it’s pretty easy to understand! Dim headlights or slow engine crank can also be signs of battery trouble. Time to consider a battery replacement or jumpstart depending on the severity.
  • Temperature Warning Light: This light warns of overheating, which can damage your engine. It usually looks like a thermometer reaching for the sky. Turn on the heater (if possible) and pull over to a safe location to cool down the engine. This could be caused by a low coolant level or a malfunctioning thermostat.
  • Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) Warning Light: A faulty ABS system can affect braking performance in slippery conditions. This light often looks like a car with skidding tires. Have the ABS system checked by a mechanic to ensure safe stopping power.
https://preview.redd.it/u76olml7s30d1.png?width=300&format=png&auto=webp&s=d56894bb8c2283116960866d33bb8bfd5318973e
  • Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) Light: This light indicates low tire pressure, which can affect fuel efficiency and handling. It often looks like a horseshoe with an exclamation mark inside. Check and inflate your tires to the recommended pressure listed on a sticker inside your driver’s door or in your car’s manual.
  • SRS (Supplemental Restraint System) Light: This light, also commonly known as the airbag warning light, indicates a problem with your car’s airbag system. Airbags are crucial safety features that deploy in a collision to cushion occupants.
https://preview.redd.it/4r87fny4s30d1.png?width=277&format=png&auto=webp&s=e32977f239c0f8734bfaa8de5f983a9472f5adae
  • Traction Control Light: This light indicates that your car’s traction control system (TCS) is activated or there might be a malfunction with the system itself. TCS helps prevent wheel spin during acceleration on slippery surfaces by reducing engine power or applying brakes to individual wheels.
https://preview.redd.it/4iha4sw1s30d1.png?width=273&format=png&auto=webp&s=6b06c6ccd271f02374943d314a08a3852f5dd879
Beyond the Basics:
While these are some of the most common car dashboard lights, there are many others specific to your car’s make and model. Consulting your car’s owner’s manual is crucial for understanding the exact meaning of each light in your vehicle. The manual will also likely have instructions on how to reset certain warning lights, like the TPMS light after inflating your tires.
Maintaining Peace of Mind:
Here are some additional tips for maintaining peace of mind on the road:
  • Regular Maintenance: Following your car’s recommended maintenance schedule can help prevent problems before they arise, reducing the likelihood of seeing warning lights. Think of it as preventative car care!
  • Familiarize Yourself: Take some time to get acquainted with your car’s dashboard layout and the meaning of the various lights. A little knowledge goes a long way in reducing stress behind the wheel.
  • Don’t Hesitate to Ask: If you’re ever unsure about a warning light, don’t hesitate to consult a mechanic. They’re the experts and can diagnose the problem and recommend the best course of action.
Conclusion:
By understanding your car dashboard lights, you can ensure a safer and smoother driving experience. Remember, these lights are your car’s way of keeping you informed. So pay attention to them, address any issues promptly, and keep rolling! With a little knowledge and proactive maintenance, you can navigate.

2024.05.13 01:53 Mean_March_4698 Request: Advice for careers in automotive repairs and modification

Hi all! I'm posting this not for myself, but for my brother who just graduated from a technical school in the US Midwest for automotive repair. I'm hoping to get advice and insight into how to build a career in this industry and get him where he wants to go. He loves working on most vehicles, but cars specifically--with aspirations to work on more luxury models by way of repair and custom modification and potentially owning his own shop one day in the distant future. He went through a two-year technical program at a trade school and has been building experience working at a shop in our hometown nearly full-time, mostly on old farm trucks and commuter vehicles. He has a lot of his own tools (I'm ignorant in this regard so I'm not sure what that entails) and some pricey software for doing tunings.
For some context on why I'm doing this in his stead -- he's working uphill when it comes to getting into a career development mindset. There are few-to-no opportunities for what he wants to do where we grew up, and our folks have never been very career focused either, with their advice being almost exclusively limited to "work hard and pay your dues." On top of that, his boss at the shop is trying to convince him into buying his business in a few years, which would almost certainly lock him out of valuable career opportunities elsewhere.
All in all, I think my goal here is to be able to give him good guidance and a few places to start when it comes to building a career in the sort of automotive work he wants to do. Things to think about, education opportunities, etc. To give a clearer idea of what he likes, him and I will be going to Germany in October to tour the BMW factory in Leipzig. Not sure if that's relevant, but thought I may as well include it!
Any help, advice, or insight would be appreciated, and thanks in advance!

2024.05.12 21:53 jjelly_donutzz I don't know why I keep trying to talk to Mom about this...

Hey, everyone. It's been a while. It's Frankly_Sage on a new account in case some of y'all are wondering.
So, as a part of my PIMO to POMO journey, I've been making plans to find a good job and move out. I'm considering returning to college this fall to pursue something (somewhat) quick that I also find interest (automotive repair) and saving money to buy a passport (making money in any way I can like taking odd jobs mowing lawns and occasionally donating plasma and blood) because I plan to move, maybe even out of the country. Point is, I'm trying to save money to leave so I can support myself when I inevitably turn in my dissociation letter.
I think, because I'm making such big plans, I don't want to be alone. And of course, who does one trust more than the one who raised them? So occasionally, Mom (I think she crosses a fine line between PIMI and PIMQ) and I talk about things. I confide in her, but I'll admit, I feel really risky talking about certain things. Like after the meeting, I half-jokingly said about the talk, "Do you think I'd get in trouble if I posted this on Facebook: 'Far be it from me to question God, but isn't it kinda fucked up that he killed an innocent baby when David couldn't keep it in his pants?'" Mom bluntly said, "Yes." Point taken. Sometimes she does acknowledge that there are issues with the faith, but that it's best to leave it in God's hands. Which is ironic because he should have done something by now about how the brothers and sisters make occasional jabs at Mom for having sex with a worldly guy and having me.
But anyway, like I said, I think I just don't want to be alone because I'm making such big plans to leave, and Mom has always been the one person I could confide in and I know she won't rat me out to the elders. Still, I'm torn. I know she sees the issues, but I can't force her to see. And yet I can't leave her behind to fend for herself against the others. Should I just focus on myself before trying to talk her into it?

2024.05.12 20:54 DaGreatUnknown About My Job Corps Experience

So I’m currently in Job Corps. I am in the Auto Collision Repair trade. My instructor is the best person I meet at my Job Corps center. But with the TABE tests they want to take it when you get there to see what you’re math and reading grade levels are. And if they are not at a certain level they will not allow you to be in that grade till you TABE up higher. But you can always talk to your counselor and instructor to see if you can have a test period in that trade to see if you can handle the work that trade requires. And I didn’t know that before. So when I found out I was around half way done with my trade in Auto Collision Repair. And I wanted to go into Automotive Repair Technician it was too late. But always talk to some of the staff before making a decision if you can’t go into your first choice. And try to build a connection with the staff. Because if you can build that connection with them they could help you in the long run in the end if you ever get into trouble. And the TABE situation when they tell you to TABE up they don’t mean the number they mean a grade level. And also in my Job Corps the don’t have day passes some Job Corps do so I would encourage you to look into that. Before choosing a Job Corps location. But also some trade will offer tools at the end of your trade before you leave Job Corps. But also what they don’t tell you is when you leave they don’t give you all of your money or tools that they say you get from them if you don’t go into a job that is in some what involved in you trade you choose. And don’t be afraid to ask questions with people. The more info you get the better you will be off there. And don’t hang out with everyone be careful you hang out with at Job Corps. Because if you hang out with the wrong people they will put you on their radar and it takes a while to get off of their radar. That’s basically all I got for you guys looking to go into Job Corps or that are in your CPP period. I’m doing this because I’ve been at Job Corps since August 2023 and I’m expected to graduate for Job Corps with my certification in Auto Collision Repair and my High School Diploma around July 2024.
