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.
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.
Yeah, I’ve been looking for this as well. I’ve got a constant check engine light because the catalytic converter is dead, and that’s about the only thing on the car I don’t care about.
