Best auto repair podcast around

Having listened to many podcasts this is the only one that is impartial and not tainted by endorsements for products or biased by the industry. Although limited to US and certain Japanese cars (because thats what they work on and have current knowledge) their approach and advice can be applied on almost every car ever made. Understandable, comprehensive answers and an approach to fixing things many main dealers should be taking note of. Their scepticism about the automotive industry and insight into its future is both interesting and believable. Worth a listen and going back through their old episodes will not disappoint.
Yes they are honest and yes they are technically competent. Thats all you need to know.

Best Car podcast

Without a doubt the best and most educational car podcast around. Listened for a long time and never fail to be impressed by the comprehensive answers given and the common sense approach laid out by Louis. Recommend to anyone anywhere in the world, as I listen here in Ireland and despite most of the cars mentioned being US models, the information give is great.

The best car podcast

I've listened to many car podcasts and this is one of the best - no adverts for anything but their own business so when people call with questions they get HONEST answers rather than everything being steered towards using the sponsors products. I wish there was a garage like Agco in the UK as they seem like really good guys.
