Car Issue Help

10 per session - Virtual OK - Posted May 13, 2017

Is there a funny noise from your brakes? Some sort of squeaky, groany sound but only when you take a left? Not sure what to do about it or where to start?
Let me walk you through some steps to point you in the right direction. Knowing what could be a potential problem can point your trusted mechanic in the right direction, reduce down time and avoid costly towing fees.

A session will include an initial explaination from you describing your problem, followed by questions that may narrow down the scope of the problem. Suggestions and experimental procedures will be given that would indicate the source or potential hazard. Specific parts may be able to be named, depending on the clarity or presence of the problem. A rough estimate of cost can be given, but varies depending on your trusted mechanic.

About Elliott Johnson

I have higher education in mechanical and manufacturing engineering. Great with all types of machines, not limited to cars, bikes, or lawn equipment. I have designed or redesigned parts for cars to ma...ke them stronger, faster and better. I am experienced in Solidworks, ProE, AutoCAD, SmartCAM, and MasterCAM, with a certificate in CAD design. I obtained a Quality Control certificate as well, focusing on lean manufacturing and geometric design and manufacturing tolerances. I have worked as a building superintendant for a few years. I learned to fix houses in order to make them livable again. I also worked with my father doing historic restoration. My skills include interior and exterior painting, drywall, basic electrical and plumbing, roofing, windows, doors, flooring, fencing, some masonry and property maintenance. I have a vivid imagination that lends itself well to solving problems and logistical issues. Inventory and process engineering kinks are a forte of mine, aside from design. In the work place I have often implemented cost saving measures to reduce manufacturing waste and cut time from the finished product. I am a musician who has taken many years of theory and over a decade of playing experience. I have played Carnagie Hall! I play tuba and bass, both electric and upright. I have played jazz, rock, metal, punk, classical, and orchestral. I also dabble in EDM and Djing, but more as a hobby. I use programs such as Ableton, Fruityloops, Beatwave and others. I use a Launchpad and like to program lightshows in conjunction with the music I compose. I have worked as a chef and enjoy cooking as a hobby. I have experience as a New Haven pizza maker, cook in Italian restaraunts and high volume commercial kitchens serving 500+ guests.show more
