I've two family members that didn't know the back seat of their hatchbacks folded. One denied it completely.
I've known two people who asked me to put their cars back to how they bought them. One was running very rich and I adjusted it to normal. They complained that before I did anything they could drive it out the garage, onto the road and push the choke in immediately. After I adjusted the mixture they had to go a mile or so with the choke out!
The other couldn't get it started and had fiddled, blindly with the mixture and timing. I set everything back to normal and noticed the kickdown cable was dislodged, so re-fitted it. They complained it never used to do that when they pressed the accelerator hard, and told me to remove it!
A friend had a car for eighteen months. I was out with them on a hot day and asked why they didn't use the a/c. They replied the car didn't have it, until I asked what a certain button was for!
