Summary
I have been in the automotive trade for 13 years starting my time off in a Toyota service centre so have a very strong understanding of their product.
A lot of my time has spent repairing and diagnosing faults in petrol and diesel vehicles including 4WD utes, small trucks and some forklifts.
I have also spent about 5 years doing breakdowns where I would travel to diagnose and repair or tow broken down vehicles.
In the last 5 years I have taken on a management role where I am in charge of 3 other technicians in a busy workshop where we work on all makes and models of vehicles including doing fleet servicing for big companies.
