I’ve been using the CarFAX Car Care app/website for a long time but I’m looking for something better.
It would be nice to have something I can enter my car make/model into and have it suggest maintenance but also keep track of repairs. I like uploading PDF scans of receipts too; one thing that always bothered me about Car Care is the horrible, weird compression it does on those files.
I would also be interested in such a thing. :)
I’m at the point where I want to just build it but it’s a matter of free time (I’m a full time web developer with a side business). Also, I wouldn’t know where to source car maintenance schedules.
Maybe an API of some sort. A quick search found michelins solution: https://ddi.michelin.com/en/preventive-maintenance-api/ and this one https://vehicledatabases.com/vehicle-maintenance-api
for receipts and such paperless ngx is good. that won’t track your repairs or inform of you of likely maintenance problems, but that and a spread sheet sounds like a good start.
Haven’t used it, just know it exists.
Ahhh, I’d love it if I could tie that in with a Bluetooth OBD dongle and Home Assistant. It’d be awesome if I could set up a BLE proxy in my carport to automatically update stuff. It’d be especially handy if I could get alerted about check engine codes.
For what it’s worth, you can replace the name in most locations: https://docs.lubelogger.com/Replacing The Logo.
At the risk of sounding like an oaf I just use an excel document, and these days I just keep it in nextcloud and edit it via a browser while in the driveway. Each car gets a sheet. Keeping it simple.
I would love one that would work for a fleet of vehicles/equipment, and had a webapp/android/ios interface. We have about 40 pieces of equipment and vehicles that we need to keep track of. If the phone apps had a connection to a bluetooth OBD dongle to update the odo or hourmeter, that would be pretty dope too.
