Access to technical info: what has changed since last Automechanika, and what should change in the next years?
Access to vehicle’s information is central for its repair, maintenance and service. It is in particular true to maintain the safety, the sustainability and the affordability of road mobility over the lifetime of a vehicle.
Since last Automechanika, several changes have occurred in conjunction with European legislation, improving the access of the independent aftermarket to such critical information. Over the next years, more changes could happen.
We will discuss the following topics:
- Technical and commercial conditions for access to technical information;
- Repair & maintenance information and spare parts identification;
- Telematics;
- Cybersecurity;
- SERMI;
- And many more…
… And the impact on these issues of recent and upcoming regulatory developments, in particular:
- The Type Approval Regulation;
- The Delegated Act on standardised access to vehicle on-board diagnostics information and repair and maintenance information, and the requirements and procedures for secure access to on-board diagnostic information;
- The Motor Vehicle Block Exemption Regulation;
- The End-of-Life Vehicle Regulation;
- And many more.
Join us to learn more and discuss this issue with:
