    Wow, wow... slow down. If I'm to become a mechanic, you're going to have to start with the basics please.

    Wow, The GenY s will love this. Something that tells them exactly what to do so they do not need to actually study or learn anything.

    One of my mates' daughters must have had the alpha version of this years ago. She topped up the oil on an Alfasud by filling the engine to the brim.

    It was a long drive to Geelong from Reservoir to empty some out.

    I guess I started to learn this stuff when I was 8 MANY years ago when my dad used to get me to sit on the mudguard of our 36 Studebaker pouring petrol into the carby to help it to start as he rolled it down the hill at the side of the house.

    Wow, that's totally mean. We're, like, fully pro at learning stuff. Don't be jealous just cos you don't have our SWAG.

    ...if you're stranded on the side of the road because you're out of coolant, it could help you immediately get on your way instead of having to wait for AAA to arrive.
    That has to be the worst example to choose...

    Would be useless on a Land Rover, it'd just keep saying "Check for oil leaks"

    Not a bad idea actually. Very basic at the moment, but give it time and I can see this really working in future coupled with a Google glasses type device instead of a iPad.

    Think of the potential not just in the automotive mechanical field. For medical emergencies for example.
