Enjoyed the day. The topics covered were all relevant, fantastic to have an instructor who knows the trade and owns his own his own business. I personally don't use a scope often enough so would like to go more in-depth of patterns and what they mean etc.
Sean O'Hagen.

I think it was a good day. A lot of problems we come up against explained in repairer's terms. This would be good for our workers to keep up to date their knowledge. Other courses would be good on ABS, SRS, Climate control and engine management.
Chris

The day was very educational and positive and answered a lot of questions on a lot of subjects.
Joe Ljubinkovic.

Thanks to Jeff and Cooldrive. Information was great, instruction was clear and direct. No one should be out there on their own.
Go TaT from Tony Scoratilo, Tony's automobile repairs.

Information day encompassing large range of subjects. Enjoyed cross information on subjects. Further training on CAN BUS etc would be great using scan tools.
Rodney O'Gorman

Refreshed a few old theories and informed me of a few new systems, good day of knowledge. Presentation good and easy to understand.
Tony Vallance.

I think it was very rewarding with a brighter outlook towards the future.
Tony Plesto

Enjoyed and very informative. Thank you Cooldrive (Trevor) and Jeff (TAT).
Chris Scarafilo

Good day. I'm a apprentice motor mechanic myself and found the day enjoyable with plenty of useful information relevant to many areas. All topics were explained thoroughly and made enjoyable and educational. They were basic topics and give way for more technical aspects.
Sam Humphrey

Day was good and informative. More on ABS and A/C fault finding.
Jason Bass

Very good - Enjoyed it. I would like more on climate control. Traction control, ABS, SRS.
Trevor Rawson.

Good information and we will benefit from attending. More training either face to face or CD rom. It would be good to have specific training modules similar to the way Bosch does it. Look forward to seeing how the web site will work.
John Doherty.

Good, can do more specific training on fault code and related systems such as CAN BUS as an example to understand more on the systems and related faults.
Gavin Want.

Was expecting day to be more air-con, climate control related. ( ie, BA AU falcon air con for example) A well thought out and planned day, informative and broad enough to be of benefit to most motor repairers whether that be auto elect, mechanic or body repairer. Well done.
Jim Matheson.

Excellent day with a broad range of people from auto electricians to mechanics. I felt as if all that attended leant something. There were also some apprentices that attended and they also leant things as well as appreciated what is coming out in the future. Although this coarse was mainly electronics/electrical, I think there needs to be a little more concentration on Air Conditioning side of things. Nothing but praise for Jeff and his presentation. When is the next course? Future courses, Variable pumps, Climate control, Blend door motors, Electronics of how a A/C works on current model vehicles.
