Autodata provides comprehensive service and maintenance information specifically tailored for everyday workshop use. The focus is on clear manufacturer specifications regarding maintenance intervals, inspection points, and replacement scopes, ensuring that service work can be performed reproducibly, traceably, and in accordance with manufacturer requirements .

Manufacturer's specifications regarding maintenance intervals

Autodata provides structured maintenance and service intervals according to manufacturer specifications . Both mileage-based and time-based intervals are taken into account. This allows workshops to proactively plan and calculate inspections and service work – for cars, vans, and light commercial vehicles.

Scope of service and maintenance work

Autodata provides detailed service and maintenance items for each interval. These include inspection scopes, replacement requirements, and additional checkpoints relevant for complete and professional maintenance. This allows for the systematic structuring of internal checklists and workshop procedures.

Oil change and lubricant specifications

The service data includes manufacturer specifications for oil change intervals, oil qualities, and fill quantities . Depending on the engine variant, operating profile, and prescribed lubricant, the information is available in a clearly structured format. This supports the correct execution of oil changes and service work, as well as thorough documentation.

Inspection points and control positions

Autodata lists the required inspection and control items for vehicle inspections. These include visual inspections, functional tests, safety-related checks, and vehicle-specific additional tests. This provides workshops with a clear basis for standardized service checks and enables them to transparently explain services to customers.

Component and parts replacement as part of maintenance

In the area of service and maintenance, Autodata shows which components should be inspected, serviced, or replaced . These include filters, belts, fluids, wear parts, and safety-relevant components. The specifications help with cost calculation, parts procurement, and internal work planning.

Documentation and record keeping

The clear structure of the service and maintenance data allows for precise documentation of completed work. Workshops can use Autodata as a basis for providing proof to customers and, if applicable, manufacturers or warranty providers, and can create professionally accurate service reports.

Recommendation: Use a test version to avoid misunderstandings.

To realistically assess the functionality, structure, and presentation of service and maintenance data in everyday workshop use, we recommend using our 30-day trial version before purchasing the full version. This allows you to check whether the presentation, interval logic, and information structure meet your specific operational requirements.

Delivery

Delivery is made to the delivery address provided by the customer during the ordering process. By way of exception, where PayPal is selected as the payment method, the delivery address stored with PayPal at the time of payment is decisive.

If delivery to the customer was not possible and the transport company returns the goods to the seller, the customer bears the costs of the unsuccessful delivery. This does not apply where the customer exercises their right of withdrawal by refusing acceptance, where they are not responsible for the circumstance that made delivery impossible, or where they were temporarily prevented from accepting the goods – unless the seller had given them reasonable advance notice of the delivery.
