Let's just say the name Diesel Masters is not false advertising.
I recently purchased an '02 F250 after my previous truck was wrecked by a hit and run driver on the freeway. My new F250 had a couple of problems that I knew about when I purchased it. I knew it had an oil leak, steering sloppy (notorious), etc etc and I figured it would be a simple fix.
Well I couldn't work on it due to back/neck pain so I take it up to a shop that was recommended to us up in San Jacinto (About an hour drive one way) and the guy took a look at the truck. He stated I had multiple oil leaks coming from different areas of the truck (Some I even questioned because I didn't understand how it could happen. Now I'm not a mechanic, but I'm not an idiot and I usually work *cough cough break cough* my own stuff), and all different things were wrong with it. He originally quoted me $1500, then moved it to $2500, and he said it could potentially cost even more.
I drove home, and was pondering it when *DING DING DING* I remembered there there was a Diesel Mechanic (Diesel Masters) a couple doors down in our business suites. I shoot on down there and talk to Jaime in which he told me he wants to fully inspect it.
I brought my truck in the next day at 8:00 AM.
He took my truck to the pressure washer, washed the bay to clear out all the oil then drove it back and inspected it.
Once he did this, he inspected it.
At 11:53 I received a text from him and he found the source of the leak.
I went down there when I could break away for a couple minutes from work and he explained everything.
There was 1 oil leak and I asked How much will it cost to fix it?
*Drum Roll*
Jaime said $10.00
I was in shock, how can he spend all that time inspecting the truck, drove it to the pressure washer, took time out of his day to do this and only charge me $10 for the part.
I told him YES! Please replace it, he called his guy and same day the part was replaced.
I couldn't believe he didn't want any money for the labor and I felt like I owed him, and couldn't let that go.
Total cost:
$10 for a replacement plug (I believe off the HPOP?)
Couple bucks for the pressure washer
Case of beer.
Thank you so much Jaime,
P.S This guy is so awesome, when my truck threw a code (simple sensor more than likely) I shot him a quick text with the code just to make sure it wasn't anything major.
When I talked to him I immediately liked him, he seemed honest, responsible and overall a pretty good dude. Taking the time to drop my truck off at Diesel Masters was probably the best thing I could've done after buying it.
You've definitely earned my future business and loyalty. read more
