As an auto mechanic in the digital age, you constantly encounter new technologies and terms. Sometimes, words even pop up that seem to make no sense. Take, for example, “Goooooooooooooooogle.” What is this supposed to mean, and more importantly, what does it have to do with auto repair?
Searching for Answers in the Workshop
Just like a driver brings their car to the workshop when it’s not running smoothly, we too search for answers when something is unclear. And where do we usually search today? That’s right, on Google!
“Goooooooooooooooogle” might look funny, but essentially it simply shows the importance of Google for us. It’s like a cry for help when we don’t know how to proceed.
Google in the Daily Life of the Auto Mechanic
Imagine you’re facing a complex problem with a vehicle. A quick look on Google can provide valuable information:
- Research symptoms: What does the error code P0171 mean?
- Find repair guides: How do I replace a timing belt on a VW Golf?
- Identify special tools: Which tool do I need to remove the dashboard?
- Read about others’ experiences: What have other mechanics experienced with this issue?
You can find all this and much more on Google. It’s like a vast library full of information that can help you diagnose and repair vehicles.
The Power of Information: Why Knowledge is Important
The well-known auto mechanic and author, Hans Schmidt, writes in his book “The Modern Mechanic“: “To be successful as an auto mechanic today, you must not only be skilled with a wrench but also know where to find the right information.“
