SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Shared reference library of vehicle-manufacturer (OEM) repair position statements - wheel and tyre reconditioning prohibitions, genuine-parts policies, and authoritative repair-procedure sources (erWin, ElsaPro, VIDA). Use whenever a repair estimate, total-loss assessment, or roadworthy certificate must respect an OEM constraint, e.g. confirming a damaged alloy must be replaced (not refurbished) or that only genuine parts are approved. Consumed by roadworthy and damage-estimating. Reference data, not an output-producing skill.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Reference data and an index of statements (oem-index.md) to quickly cite manufacturer rulings.
  • Source PDFs in references/ (e.g., volkswagen-wheel-repair.pdf, volvo-wheels-tyres.pdf) for evidence-backed decisions.
  • Guidance to apply statements in estimation and certification workflows, with clear notes on market applicability and provenance.

Quick Start

Use the OEM statements index to cite the manufacturer ruling in an estimate or roadworthy decision.

Frequently Asked Questions about manufacturer-standards

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I find OEM repair standards for vehicle damage estimates?▼

OEM repair standards for vehicle damage estimates are identified using an indexed reference library of manufacturer position statements. This library provides citations and source PDFs to confirm repair constraints, ensuring estimates comply with genuine-parts policies and wheel reconditioning prohibitions.

Can I use manufacturer position statements for roadworthy certification?▼

Manufacturer position statements can be applied to roadworthy certification workflows. The reference index guides compliance reviews by linking specific OEM constraints, such as wheel replacement requirements, directly to authoritative source documents for certification validation.

When do I need OEM repair procedures for wheel and tyre reconditioning?▼

OEM repair procedures for wheel and tyre reconditioning are needed when a damaged alloy must be evaluated for replacement. Manufacturer statements frequently prohibit refurbishing, requiring estimators to cite the specific OEM ruling to enforce replacement over repair.

What sources are used to back up OEM repair compliance decisions?▼

OEM repair compliance decisions are backed up by source PDFs and an index file from systems like erWin, ElsaPro, and VIDA. These references provide provenance and direct evidence of manufacturer rulings for estimation and total-loss assessment workflows.

Are US-market OEM repair standards applicable in the UK and EU?▼

US-market OEM repair standards have noted applicability caveats for UK and EU contexts. The reference index includes guidance on market applicability and provenance to ensure estimators apply the correct regional manufacturer constraints during compliance reviews.
