Would you take your BMW here?
A mechanic using a crescent adjustable wrench? Don't think I would take my car there. Crescent wrench is used to assemble Walmart bicycles.

Where did you find this?? hahha

There's a hidden statement that they can fix BMW even with bare hands.That much knowledge they've got.
Sometimes I had to use those wrenches due to local "specialists" using SAE bolts and nuts and me not willing to spend any extra on SAE kits just for removing those. Quote:

I see no reason to not use a crescent wrench if you have the space available for it. My crescent wrench is larger than some of my metric wrenches so I use it when I need more leverage to crank on a nut.

Crescent wrenches are for plumbing fixtures.
When I was being trained, they were called "fits-all-fits-nothing" and their use on a vehicle was a cause for derision. We did use them on the shop waste oil drain system. And if you hold them at the end they make an equally good hammer as wrench. |
HOLD DA PHONE... what the hell is he even turning?

Cresent Wrench is the ultimate tool... for rounding off bolts!

The ultimate tool for shut-off valves... :-)

If I ever saw a tech approach one of my vehicles with an adjustable wrench I would have to take it from him and use it to beat him over the head with it.
In over 20 yrs of DIYing my own and friends vehicles I have yet to use one. This is an excellent example of the "world of mediocrity" in my sig. |
