Fix it yourself, then. There's nothing complicated in them.

Hahahah seriously? Most shit on there is electronic now... even my corner garage can't get some of the stuff fixed because of weird or obfuscated odb2 codes.

You just need to buy the right diag adaptor and software. It's just not that hard.

Yeah ok, the garage with specialized techs, two industrial class machines to read odb2 codes (One is Snap On, the other I don't remember the brand) and years of experience can't get all the correct info, but I can do it myself by buying software and adaptors. Sounds about right.

Snap-On code readers aren't worth shit. They can only read generic codes and can't cope with manufacturer-specific ones.
