ALLDATA Expands Its Vast Database of Manufacturers' Automotive Repair Information

Millions of Articles Offer Detailed Repair Procedures


ELK GROVE, Calif., July 6, 2011 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ALLDATA LLC, the leading provider of vehicle manufacturers' service and repair information for professional mechanical and collision repair shops, announces significant updates to its huge OE information database.

ALLDATA Repair S3000, which covers vehicles from 1982 to present, is continually updated with manufacturers' illustrated repair procedures, Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs), recall notices, wiring diagrams, parts data, and labor information. Repair information on pre-1982 vehicles is available from ALLDATA's Research Library.

"With the explosive growth of new makes and models, our database has kept pace," said ALLDATA President, Jeff Lagges. "When a manufacturer adds a vehicle to its lineup or updates a procedure on an older model, we incorporate that information quickly, so our customers always have the latest information available. We made that commitment 25 years ago. It's an important factor in why our customers remain loyal."

In May 2011, repair information was updated for 118 vehicle models. Currently the ALLDATA Repair S3000 database includes:

  • Over 33,000 engine-specific vehicles
  • 93 unique vehicle makes
  • Nearly 12,000,000 images
  • Over a million repair articles and TSBs

ALLDATA was the first software provider to market electronic and online OE repair information and it remains the largest in terms of available information and the number of customers. For more information on ALLDATA and ALLDATA Repair S3000, please visit www.alldata.com or call 800-697-2533.
