Story
Hey guys, I recently changed the oil in my Buick the other day instead of going to a shop. Well, when I got to loosening the oil plug to drain the old exon Valdez's blood. I had extreme trouble trying to get it loose. After some hard toil, I got it loose. Well, after inspecting the plug I noticed that the head had been stripped. Come to find out, that some repair shops use impact wrenches on oil plugs for s**ts and giggles.
Lesson I learned from this. Never rely on small repair shops to do simple diy projects.

They aint fiering s**t, because there everyone from bottom to the top works like that. The radiator wasnt changed they soldered the holes up, started to leak after few months. After we started disasembeling everything, we found out that some bolts werent there, some werent tightned, and the bracked that holded the under side of the bumper together was also soldered with some s**t back on. Also that was official Toyota dealer.
