CAT’s Inside Line: TecDoc

by

Both factors and workshops can benefit from the systems that TecDoc and sister company AuDaCon can provide those that need to correctly identify and supply replacement parts and those actually undertaking repair or service work.

The examples below are common faults that occur on various versions of the Peugeot 308 and which have been sourced using the AuDaCon system in conjunction with its SOS service recall option. Not only does it identify likely faults, it also points the technician in the right direction in those instances where the most obvious solution may in fact be the wrong one.
