According to a news release from the company, Mahle Aftermarket is creating a virtual repair shop training center for spare parts, battery diagnostics, calibration, air conditioning and transmission oil service. In addition, the virtual repair shop offers useful information on training courses, as well as direct links to numerous other digital information offerings that Mahle is constantly expanding. If desired, it can also direct the user to the nearest sales partner. The new offer from Mahle Aftermarket is available here.
“With the virtual repair shop, we have created another building block in our extensive digital information offering to meet the increasing training and information needs of the repair shop," said Olaf Henning, member of the Mahle management committee and director of the aftermarket business unit. "Here we show our entire product range directly on the vehicle,”
The company is expanding its digital offerings for independent repair shops and retailers at a rapid pace. Repair shop equipment from Mahle that is also networked in the repair shop concept can be updated over the air and can access the manufacturer’s servers when, for example, security gateways are involved. Therefore, a digitalized overall concept is the backbone of the Mahle Aftermarket offering, which ranges from e-commerce solutions, to information and support services on technical topics and virtual trade fair presentations.
