The Diadatic 4200 Turbo was
a mechanic's nightmare. Although it could (and did) diagnose it's own ill's, it had the odd habit of presenting conflicting data in order to test the mechanic's knowledge skills prior to allowing the mechanic to 'work on it'. More than one 'wrench turner' was left in tears when deemed "not fit" to work on the D4200T.

"Hey Bubba! it says here datt da framastatic fluid int da fanortner rods is need'n an inverse calallactral treatment inna its freostatic calaquads! Can yous pass da hammer?"
As a mechanic of 30+ years (!), I can tell ya that modern cars are more computer than anything else. I have spent more time learning about "the next big thing" in the automotive industry than I did earning my engineering degree!
