ST. PAUL, MN (PRWEB) August 21, 2006 -- Identifix, one of the nation’s premier sources of online and hotline diagnostic and repair information, today announced it has signed an agreement with Precision Auto Care Inc.

Dennis Sweeny, a Precision Tune Auto Care franchisee in, Milpitas, CA, began using Identifix services several months ago. Impressed with the results, he encouraged Precision Tune Auto Care to introduce Identifix to all franchisees. “We first began using the Identifix Repair Hotline™. The Identifix techs worked on solving the really difficult diagnostic problems while my guys continued to work on being profitable as they worked on other cars in the shop. Now, we also subscribe to Direct-Hit™ and my guys love it. We use it every day as part of our diagnostic procedure. The pattern-failure and other problem-solving information on Direct-Hit are extremely valuable. Plain and simple; it helps us fix more cars, faster.”

Calls are routed to 39 Identifix ASE certified master technicians who each specialize in one carline.
