A method for monitoring component usage during vehicle service activities has been developed. The method includes receiving with a diagnostic tool diagnostic data from a vehicle, receiving with the diagnostic tool a component identifier corresponding to a component in the vehicle that is replaced in a service procedure in response to the diagnostic data from the diagnostic tool, transmitting with the diagnostic tool the diagnostic data and the component identifier to a server, and transmitting with the server the component identifier to a listener computing device that is associated with a manufacturer of the component.

System and method for automotive diagnostic tool data collection and analysis

A system and method for automating the selection of vehicle identifying information for a diagnostic tool and for searching multiple databases of fix information and providing such information to a user.

System and method for automated vehicle selection and automated fix detection

A communications system that includes a vehicular diagnostic tool and a vehicle communication interface (VCI) configured to be connected to a vehicular computing system. In operation, the vehicular diagnostic tool automatically detects the presence of the VCI when the VCI is proximate thereto. Thereafter, the VCI and vehicular diagnostic tool communicate through a wireless connection. Also, a method of communicating using the aforementioned vehicular diagnostic tool and VCI.
