Mitchell 1 introduces its ShopConnection blog, which will use the company’s vast database of repair information for medium- and heavy-duty trucks, as well as the collective knowledge of its commercial vehicle editorial staff, to offer tips and information to help truck technicians work more efficiently.
In the blog, many of Mitchell 1’s ASE-certified trucking service experts address repair issues that truck technicians may face in the shop. The company says recent blog topics covered stationary regeneration of DPF systems, preventing transmission overheating, the pros and cons of drum versus disc brakes and diagnosing parasitic loads. The blog team also offers tips and tricks for using the TruckSeries repair information software for Class 4-8 trucks.
The blog can be accessed on the Mitchell 1 website here.
“Our editorial team has a wealth of real-world experience working with all makes of Class 4-8 trucks,” says Jake Schell, product manager for Mitchell 1’s Commercial Vehicle Group. “Sharing their insights in the ShopConnection blog has been a way for our editors to communicate their first-person knowledge and add more value to the information in TruckSeries.”
Mitchell 1’s TruckSeries is the only comprehensive repair information software suite of its kind available for Class 4-8 trucks, providing a one-stop, single log-in, all-makes data resource for mechanical labor estimating, diagnostic trouble code procedures and comprehensive repair information, the company says.
