An inside look at Automotive Customs on the ‘Road to AAPEX 2024’

With AAPEX 2024 fast approaching, Mitchell 1 has joined forces with Babcox Media to highlight how advancements in automotive repair technology have transformed the industry. In the latest episode of Babcox’s video series, “Road to AAPEX Ep. 4: How Modern Automotive Repair Shops Have Evolved,” viewers get an exclusive look at these cutting-edge innovations in action.

Watch as host Joe Keene, an ASE-certified automotive technician, takes you inside Automotive Customs in Valley View, Ohio. Here, the team demonstrates how Mitchell 1’s software streamlines daily operations and repairs, illustrating just how far the industry has evolved from its humble origins in blacksmith shops to today’s high-tech repair centers.

Repairs that once involved tedious manual tasks and oil-stained ledgers have evolved into advanced diagnostic software and streamlined processes. This makes life easier for technicians and shop owners alike, while boosting accuracy and efficiency.

At Automotive Customs, for instance, technicians no longer rely on cumbersome paper manuals or scattered notes. Instead, they leverage comprehensive web-based auto repair software, including Mitchell 1’s ProDemand software, which allows them to quickly diagnose issues and identify common faults in vehicles.

Watch as service writers and technicians seamlessly transition from diagnosing fault codes to ordering parts and estimating labor times—all in real-time – with the integration of Manager SE shop management software.
