ALLENTOWN, Pa. (Dec. 22, 2014) — Continental Automotive Systems Inc., the manufacturer and supplier of ATE and VDO replacement parts, has launched a free mobile app for looking up parts on its ATE-VDO Auto Parts Catalog.
Conti said it developed the application for multiple mobile platforms in partnership with Vertical Development and ShowMeTheParts. The app, which is compatible with Apple's iOS system and Android devices, works by scanning a vehicle's VIN to identify all applicable replacement parts.
Users can scan the vehicle's VIN barcode through either the windshield, VIN tag or the driver's side door frame sticker. The VIN scan will identify all of the parts in the ATE-VDO Auto Parts Catalog that are related to that vehicle.
In addition to its scan feature, the new app allows users to search for products based on vehicle make and model and cross-reference with the touch of a button.
The new mobile app can be downloaded for free from the Apple Store and Google Play, Continental said.
