This app is great
I was able to save a lot of money changing the oil on my own daily with help from the mechanic I chatted with on the Tinker app. I'm going to start doing a lot of my own car repair now.bleumoon1001
Personal experience
I tried to call sat on the call for 20 minutes waiting. When one did answer they never actually connected to the call and then just hung up. I got charged for a call that wasn’t even worth making cause they didn’t answer.
Edit/update: I wrote an email June 10th, 2024 asking for help as to what happened.
Edit/update: I have personally spoken with the customer support team for the app. Today June 14, 2024. They said that what happened with me was a bug/glitch in the system. They have put out an update to help fix and patch this bug. They also are an incredible team. They even made it right with me. After they reached out they comped me a few calls as an apology for what happened. They are an amazing team and business!!! Hats off to y’all!! Thank you!!!!Show lessMichael Alan JR

I was running into some issues turbocharging my car and a few of the mechanics I talked to were awesome about helping me with solutions, the app is very very user friendly and it’s all around great for anyone stuck on something or want to do things themselves🙌🏻🙌🏻Michael theisen

This app looks promising. It’s clearly new, but the oldest it would allow me to select was 1996. I have a 1969 Ford F100. I’m sure most of the people who could benefit would be those with Pre-1996 vehicles.OC Fyreman

Desperately needed to change my air filters but didn’t have the time to drop my car off at the dealership. Felt like any entry level enough “repair” I could fix myself. Called an auto tech through this app, they talked me through how to access my air filters, we confirmed they needed to be changed, told me the price range I should expect to pay for new filters and how to make sure I walked away with the right ones. Made working on my car feel totally doable which is no small feat. I imagine I’d use this service again if I was in a bind and AAA had a long wait time.Show lesscar_novice
Good app, so far helpful
Got this just to help me through fixing up my new project car. Talked to about 2 different experts, so far so helpful. Pretty good automotive expertsToby Ford35
Great Auto DIY App
I like to do stuff with my car myself when I can, and it’s great to have an app where I can get expert help from a car mechanic when I need it.Eric R234
Battery Issue
Was able to get quick and well informed assistance with my car when it wouldn’t start. I was having the interior lights come on and clicking but my vehicle wouldn’t turn over after a chilly night with sudden temperature drop. The auto expert advised that my battery was being drained by the colder weather and due to the age of my battery it was best to replace it once I got a jump start. I was concerned it might be a alternator issue as well and the automotive expert was able to advise me to have my local auto parts store run a code scan to confirm alternator was good before investing in a new battery. The auto expert stated based on what I was experiencing with my car and what I had described happening he felt confident it was just a battery issue. Happy that my car is running well with no issues. Will definitely use again when I have an automotive question, or need assistance with an automotive repair, auto part replacement, or plan for a vehicle upgrade I want to tackle at home.
