Can you add a series into these with a different approach? Here is my proposal. I listened to this series and it was a scant bit of guidance. I had more questions within your framework. I can envision a chapter on: this is how it should work when... interviewing, what to ask, whatdoes thier shop work on and not work on, do they subout x,y,z, do they computer diagnose, is diagnose a fee or part of completed job. Maintaining communication during repair, phone text etc. How do they feel about customer drop in progress inquiries? Can customer request certain brand parts? Warrenties on parts, labor? Are prices negotiable? How are all these topics resolved in reality? More on how the process is supposed to be conducted. Personal experience that dealing with auto shops has been aweful. Lying, steeling, time wasting, condescending and rude attitudes. THEY DID NOT LIKE QUESTIONS. Independent foreign to corner garage just at various degrees on how direct they are at signaling to you they don't like questions. All feel threatened on their competency, not nurturing a potential repeat customer. How should this really work for women with a good outcome? If they know their car and get a garage to do work b/c they are not equipped but know what needs done, what's the winning approach so no hard feelings,but the job gets done correctly and not way over charging? Many women want to handle all facets of their own lives but some hate the b.s. hassel of a garage experience. So maybe this can improve with knowing how it should work for more than a few people but for many customers. Hope this helps you to help more women so things can get better on an everyday basis.
The first RU-vid video where it all started. I'm just finally getting around to going back to watch, comment and enjoy all of the videos on this channel. It's like a blast from the past seeing these older images but still so satisfying.
These videos give a slight insight into how Bogi's very own personal auto shop developed. Many of her customers probably miss her dearly and i know deep in her heart that shop will be forever loved. It was her mark on the world. Or at least in Phoenix AZ. Smiles.
Hey Bogie! Thanks for what you do! I'm interested in pursuing a career in the automotive industry. I'm 33 years old. I haven't been in school forever. I'm super nervous to jump in. Any advice? Also, do you know of anyone that offers similar classes for women in California?
Just wanted to say you are one of my favorite celebrity mechanics!! I didn’t know you had law school background- explains why you are so articulate and present so professionally. Much continued success- you are an inspiration to many!!
I have an 2007 bmw 335i v6 with duel turbo any way ive replaced fuse and ground strap battery is 3 months old i was driving and i came to a stop at the light when it happened it turned off so fuses and relay have been replaced any suggestions that you may offer please help should of kept my Honda thanks for your time
Hi! Thanks so much! I’m sadly horrible about adding videos to this channel (though it’s on the list to work on!) best place to see build content is on the Girl Gang Garage Instagram page. 💜
(Second one) 2008 e92 335i auto rwd, I cleaned some contacts in the fuse box and rewired the black wire connector under the blue connector on the right side of the shifter because it got broken. Now no start/crank, no Idrive, no dash lights, key don't lock in
Thanks. I think I'll upgrade. I like how the pattern "actually" changes..the pattern on the old PPS gun doesn't seem to change very much. And I've used tips wayyyy more than 10x on the old PPS gun. But I'm not painting cars or anything critical.
Hello there! I'm new here and just subscribe to your channel. Working in the automotive field for me is awesome. I'm currently working in a dealership and I like it. I hope to see more videos from you! 😀
I'm a newbie and didn't like the way the Accuspray gun is putting down the base coat, so maybe it's not me, but I'll try different settings and see if I can make it better. This was a great 2-part series and now I'm not as hesitant to upgrade, if needed. Thanks!
I know the car community can suck with how that treat females or just attitude towards women talking about vehicles at all. This is an insanely comprehensive and thorough video. Keep up the excellent above and beyond work.
All my ex friends are car thieves gangbangers , they also became mechanics and are working at Toyota dealers and other dealers …she should’ve went to law , I have no respect for mechanics ..they screw u over
That surface doesn’t even look metal looks all bondo what paint sticks to bondo the best lol do you plan on beating Ryan from counts Kustoms your gonna need like 10 colors to do that lol
Right sometimes I will mix paints gloss with anodized clear coats and or metal flake lots of wet sanding but I like 2 practice on rc car lexon body’s it’s always nice to have fresh paint in a vented paint booth vs an old rattle can in the wind and hot sun with a coat hanger hanging from a tree branch holding up the piece I’m painting…. Either way I just like to get creative and make up mixtures that I have no idea what there gonna look like until there dry
Red green blue… I would get super frustrated over a spec or a uneven surface then I realized I’m painting a dune buggy that’s going on a motocross track to get thrashed anyways so what’s it matter it’s only gonna look good for not even 1 lap lol after you roll it off a jump and get roosted with rocks a few times spill nitro methane on it and get exhaust all over it theres gonnabe alot of mistakes in the paint no one’s perfect
