Ray: We write on the repair order that we consider the car unsafe to drive and that the customer refused to do the recommended repairs.
Tom: And, in some extreme cases, we’ve even gone so far as to write on the repair order that we’ve contacted the state Department of Motor Vehicles, reported the car as not roadworthy and recommended that the registration be pulled.

 NPR : Tom and Ray Magliozzi
Tom and Ray Magliozzi, the Peabody Award-winning hosts of Car Talk on NPR, are better known as "Click and Clack, the Tappet Brothers" -- taking their names from the clickety-clack sound made by aging autos.
In 1977, Tom and Ray were invited to the studios of NPR member station WBUR in Boston, along with other area mechanics, to discuss car repair.
Tom accepted the invitation, and when he was invited back the following week, he asked, "Can I bring my brother, Ray?" The rest, as they say, is history.

 Q&A with Tom & Ray
Tom: So a 5W30 oil would be the same as a 10W30 once the engine is hot, but it would be thinner when the engine is cold.
Ray: So I’m sure it would not be a disaster if you used 10W30, but given a choice, I’d go with Ford’s recommendation and use the 5W30.
Tom: And the reason a lot of shops use 10W30 is because it’s the closest thing to a “one size fits all” oil.
