ALLDATA Europe and Schaeffler partner to provide REPXPERT members with instant access to original technical repair data

Date: Thursday 19 October 2023

Renowned automotive brands, ALLDATA Europe and Schaeffler, are proud to announce that they have joined forces to provide REPXPERT members original vehicle manufacturer (VM) technical repair data.

REPXPERT, a digital platform and community developed by Schaeffler, is dedicated to supporting automotive professionals with product and technical material; therefore, its collaboration with ALLDATA Europe, a provider of genuine OE repair and maintenance information, is a perfect fit.

How does the partnership work?

REPXPERT members in the UK can access this invaluable resource by simply clicking on the ALLDATA Repair banner within the REPXPERT web portal. This will transport them to a new landing page where they can request a two-week free trial. This period will grant them unrestricted access to original repair and collision information for 33 VMs, all of which have licensing agreements with ALLDATA Europe.

ALLDATA Europe, proud to have 12,000 customers in 30 European countries, has coverage of over 95% of cars currently on European roads. This equates to ~91,000 unique year, make, model and engine combinations, along with 72 million technical drawings, including electrical connector views. Technical documents include repair procedures, wiring diagrams, Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs), and Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs). This extensive resource is available in English, German, French, Spanish, and Italian.

Access to this data will enhance the efficiency and quality of repair and maintenance work undertaken by REPXPERT members. ALLDATA Europe is confident, therefore, that REPXPERT members will sign-up to a 12-month subscription upon a successful trial.

Moreover, for added value, REPXPERT subscribers who commit to an ALLDATA Repair ‘power user license’ before December 31, 2023, will be entitled to three unique logins – all for the price of a standard, one-login license. This means a trio of technicians can utilize ALLDATA Repair simultaneously, enhancing a workshop’s productivity and efficiency. They will also receive 5,000 REPXPERT bonus points too, as a ‘thank you’ for their investment.

“Make complicated repairs simple with ALLDATA Repair”

ALLDATA President, Satwinder Mangat, said:

“Access to accurate repair information is paramount in our industry and our collaboration with Schaeffler reinforces this ambition to remove the guesswork and make complicated repairs simple with ALLDATA Repair.”

ALLDATA Europe Managing Director, Karol Englert, added:

“The ALLDATA Repair technical repair data will support the REPXPERT members with accurate information just when they need it. The aftermarket technician is generally looking after vehicles from many brands – so a wide-reaching information source is vital for them to be able to service their customers.
“We are thrilled to embark on this journey and partner with a world-class organization, like Schaeffler. Our dedication to delivering original OE data, coupled with Schaeffler’s OEM pedigree, ensures this is a perfect match. We believe that together, we will redefine technicians’ access and utilization of repair information across Europe.”

Head of Schaeffler REPXPERT, Sven-Olev Müller, said:

“Particularly against the background of the technological shift we are currently experiencing in the automotive industry, garages are now dealing with increasingly complex repair and maintenance work. The need for well-prepared information and practical tips is high. The aim of REPXPERT's service offer is to provide the most comprehensive coverage possible. ALLDATA's solution complements our existing offering in the UK which is why we happily recommend this additional solution when fitting our Schaeffler repair solutions and other spare parts.”

REPXPERT members throughout the rest of Europe will gain access from January 2024.
