Short answers about Parts Fitment Notebook. If something is missing, write to [email protected].
Getting started
- Add your car. Name it, add make, model and the registration if you like. Or load the example notebook to look around.
- Note the parts. Read the number off the old part or the box, measure what matters and pick the system. Templates help.
- Log the fitting. When it goes on, log the date and mileage. The part is then marked as checked by you.
- Find it next time. At the counter or ordering online: search, copy the number, done. Export the list for a garage.
Questions
Does the app look up my registration or VIN?
No. You type in the vehicle details yourself. The app has no internet access and does not contact the DVLA, a VIN decoder or any parts catalogue.
Can it tell me which part fits my car?
No. It is a notebook for what you have found out and checked yourself – from the old part, the box, a parts counter or the handbook. The example data uses invented part numbers.
How do I search for a part number?
Open “Find part” and type a few characters. Spaces, dots, dashes and slashes do not matter, so “bd 2816” finds BD-2816-004. The search also covers alternatives, the number actually fitted, names, sizes, #tags and fitting dates like “Oct 2026” or “18/10/2026”.
What does “checked by me” mean?
It is your own mark. Set it on a part when you have confirmed it fits this vehicle, and on an alternative number when you have compared or fitted it. Logging a fitting that went on marks the part as checked automatically.
I have two cars of the same type. Do I have to type everything twice?
No. Use “Duplicate as new vehicle” in the vehicle menu, or “Copy to another vehicle” on a single part. Copies come without fitting history and every fit is reset to “not checked”.
Can I use kilometres?
Yes. Miles are the default; each vehicle can use kilometres instead (vehicle details), and a fitting can be entered in either unit.
How do I export the catalogue?
Vehicle menu → Export catalogue, or More → Export catalogue. Choose one vehicle or all, with or without fitting history, prices and links, and share or save a PDF (A4), a CSV for spreadsheets or plain text.
How do I move my notes to a new phone?
More → Data and backup → Share backup (or Save to folder). On the new phone install the app and choose Restore from backup.
Does the app send reminders?
No. There are no notifications. Open items – parts not checked yet, alternatives not checked, parts without a number – are listed on the Summary screen.
