Having an actual good mechanic is invaluable.

The one thing that really stands out about Wizard is his honesty.. He gives the credit where its due to the right person and does not claim the victory for himself. Very few people have this level of integrity and honesty to put the workers in the front and present them as problem fixer.

I had a 1985 Jaguar XJ6 with a rough idle. I took it to the two best independent Jaguar shops on the East Coast. Both shops were unable to fix it. Out of desperation I took it to an Exxon gas station that had a mechanic who did basic work: brakes, rotors, tires. He fixed it in five minutes. It was right on top of the engine: the fuel pressure regulator was clogged. Lesson learned. The so-called independent "specialist" shops might not be so great.

Once again Wizard, all credit to you for crediting 'Daniel Son' for doing the work. Only a good boss would champion his staff like you. All success you get is down to you being one of the generous guys. Iain Tyrell in England does exactly the same on his channel. Both a credit to the motor trade.

What really bugs me about the shop that just replaced the spark plug and coil is they couldve easily verified their "diagnosis" by swapping them with another cylinder and seeing if the misfire moved. Ive gained a lot of customers who came to me after another shop has fired the parts cannon, charged them hundreds of dollars, and didnt fix the issue.

This Challenger looks like it was relatively taken care of and not abused. Seeing the chassis how dry it is, reminds me of the Dodge I owned, it was one of the most trouble free cars I ever had.

"Bob's Plumbing Bakery and Dodge Challenger repair, how may I help you?"
-
"IT'S STILL NOT FIXED" This is a worldwide problem as I have specialised in rescuing certain cars that previous frustrated owners have simply given up on and moved on. It takes a lot of time to fully investigate problems. Yes lots of time and plugging into the OBD rarely provides the full picture.

You guys are good mechanics and good people. If I could I would definitely bring my vehicles to you.

My dad used to say a “genuine” mechanic diagnosis the issue and adjusts or replaces the defective part. A glorified “parts puller” keeps putting on new parts hoping they will get lucky. It is amazing the electronic diagnostic equipment that many shops have today, but without the knowledge of how systems work is of little help. Wizard it seems that you have both the equipment you need and the mechanical knowledge to diagnose problems and employ people with similar skills.

The Wizard knows to give his mechanics credit when credit is due. That’s the mark of a great leader. He also has hired some great mechanics and will showcase their skills. Car Ninja does the same. Two great shops.

Defining "MDS" and other acronyms for the uninitiated into the world of Chrysler products would be really helpful. Daniel-San did a great job, and I'm glad he also has his own channel. Thanks to you and Mrs. Wizard for another helpful and informative video. What product did Daniel-San use to remove the oxidation on the connectors?
-
Lol I have been having this same problem!!! On my 2011 chrysler 300c same cylinder and everything! Same things replaced! I'm gonna do exactly what was stated in the video!
-
Fun to see this. A 2013 Dodge Challenger R/T was the first dip of my toe into becoming an enthusiast and the first new car I bought for myself.
-
Thank goodness my mechanic is pretty honest, I've had a few car problems (with different cars) that stumped him. Not everyone is a "Car Wizard" and I let my guy know that I appreciate his honesty and I don't begrudge him for paying for his time looking into it. Sometimes we'll work as a team to find the solution. In the end we always sort it out. 👍

It’s good to see you guys are diligent about the diagnosis and saved the customer money. A lot of mechanics nowadays load up the parts cannon and blast away. Another common with the MDS on these Hemis is the wiring harness for the solenoids can get brittle and short because of all the heat under the manifold a lot of shops that work on these often will go ahead and replace the harness (it only like $50) if they are in there to replace a solenoid just in case.

Hey Jen and Bud. So glad to see you again. Bud your so smart.
-
Great job fixing the cars problem Wizard. Thanks for posting.
-
You all are great people. It does a heart good to see honest ,hardworking, fun loving people out there. God Bless.

That guy did some work, figuring that out. I have definitely seen issues in Cars that are directly related to: Poor Connection Issues. It's nice to see a shop that clearly takes care of its people. Not all shops really want to: Give the tech the time. Or Pay Them For It. It's awesome to see some skills at work. I wish my dealership was like that.
