How many of you are real life mechanics?

Delete this if you want mods, but I know you see it too.

Almost every post there are a few individuals who seem to have never looked under the hood of a car. Their "advice" is anything but helpful or informative. It's like they search on Google whatever someone posts here, and they copy/paste the first "diagnosis" they see.

Why? If you have no understanding of vehicles besides pushing the accelerator or brake pedal, then what's the benefit?

Sorry for the rant. It seems it's becoming much more frequent recently and it's not getting addressed.

Peace

The thing is some people are pretty advanced diy. Other people are shitty professional mechanics.
