Pro plan

Turn solved faults into your garage's private knowledge

Record the symptoms, tests, root cause and repair while the job is fresh, then search your company's library when a similar vehicle comes back. Diagnostic Library is included with the Pro plan.

How the Diagnostic Library works in Pistonlog

Pistonlog Diagnostic Library is a private, company-wide record of diagnostic cases. Your team can save a vehicle's symptoms, fault codes, test evidence, confirmed root cause, repair actions and verification, then search those cases by fault code, engine, vehicle or fault. It is included with the Pro plan, and private cases are not shared with other companies.

Find the last fix
Search by fault code, engine, vehicle or symptom instead of relying on who remembers the job.

Private to your company
Your diagnostic cases stay inside your company and follow the access set for each team role.

Build knowledge as the work happens

Three steps from a difficult fault to something the whole garage can use next time.

  1. Record the case while it is fresh

    Start from a stored vehicle or enter the vehicle details manually. Add the reported fault, symptoms, codes, observations and the tests you carried out, without waiting until the end of the job to reconstruct it.

  2. Close the loop with evidence

    Record the confirmed root cause, link the evidence that proves it, list the repair actions and note how the original fault was checked after the work. The case becomes a useful answer, not just another fault-code note.

Diagnostic Library questions

The things garage owners ask before they switch.

Is Diagnostic Library included with every Pistonlog plan?
No. Diagnostic Library is included with the Pro plan and Group plans, but not the Essentials plan.

What can I search for in the Diagnostic Library?
You can search your company's cases by fault code, engine, vehicle or fault description, then filter them by case status.
What information can a diagnostic case hold?
A case can hold vehicle details, reported faults, symptoms, fault codes, observations, tests, evidence, the confirmed root cause, repair actions and verification of the fix.
