Getting the right part first time.

A 6-page guide for mechanical workshops, panel shops, car yards and fleets. What to have in front of you before you ring a wrecker — and the direct numbers, so you skip the queue and get someone who knows the vehicle.

What’s inside

Five pages you’ll actually use.

  1. 01

    Why the wrong part turns up

    It is almost never sent in error — it is sent against an incomplete description. What that costs a workshop, and the thirty seconds that prevent it.

  2. 02

    The eight-point checklist

    VIN, build date, badge, body, side, colour code, driveline, part number — where each one lives on the car and why the counter needs it.

  3. 03

    A fill-in job sheet

    Ruled and labelled, so you can complete it at the car and read it straight down the phone. This is the page to print.

  4. 04

    Every counter number

    All 7 divisions with their direct lines, the makes each one carries, and our hours. Pin it above the bench.

  5. 05

    Keeping the warranty intact

    The first-fit steps on an engine or gearbox, and the short list of things that void a claim.
