Eco Entretien® label: controlling pollutant emissions and anticipating engine wear and tear
News - 11/06/2020
Capelec is committed to an environmental approach by certifying its Eco Entretien® anti-pollution solutions, a label aimed at all repair professionals.
The Eco Entretien® scheme aims to control pollutant emissions and prevent engine damage. It utilises an innovative diagnostic tool and can be implemented quickly and easily by certified car repair shops.
In practical terms, it involves a two-stage service carried out at a repairer’s using certified diagnostic equipment and following a precise procedure.
Firstly, a thermodynamic diagnosis of the engine and its emissions is carried out in 4 minutes, based on a 5-gas analysis at variable revs, using software that identifies malfunctions and pinpoints their root causes.
A report is provided to the motorist and a second one is produced for the professional: this then recommends the most appropriate corrective actions in terms of efficiency and cost to restore the vehicle to its nominal performance levels.
In a second stage, with the vehicle owner’s consent, the corrective maintenance actions identified by the repairer on the basis of the diagnostic report are carried out on the vehicle.
This work may involve workshop services and the replacement of parts.
The Capelec WORKSHOP series is available in an Eco Maintenance version, thereby ensuring complete control over the vehicle’s pollutant emissions and providing an environmentally friendly and cost-effective maintenance service.
