Vehicle Assessment Tool

The most important advantages of SINDRI

• Fast acquisition of vehicle condition, plus the service history of returned leasing or used vehicles
• Increased chances of additional and spare part sales thanks to accurate diagnosis results
• Transparency for the customer thanks to the direct transmission of the report as a PDF file
• Search for hints within the vehicle to identify mileage manipulations and hidden faults

A complete vehicle scan in no more than 5 minutes

SINDRI provides extremely efficient and easy access to vehicle data such as error memory entries and selected actual values that reflect the condition of the vehicle. Once connected, the app automatically performs a complete vehicle scan in no more than 5 minutes.

A digital checklist can be used to document all the work steps that have been performed and their results.

Additional features such as the mileage check increase the probability of determining the actual vehicle value.

The app clearly presents the acquired information and provides a report that can be made available to customers in a professional digital form, either as an XML or PDF file to the backend or on a smartphone or tablet.

Advantages in vehicle valuation

• Fast determination of the condition of leasing returns or used cars for testing organizations or vehicle valuers in the car dealership.
• Detection of any manipulation of the mileage and reliable readouts of the vehicle and service history.
• Information on whether or not the error memory (DTC) has been recently reset.
• Documentation of VIN, model, year, brand and engine information without any manual input.
• Increases the quality of the valuation by providing additional information and speeding up the entire process of used car evaluation.

Vehicle valuation

Use SINDRI to increase accuracy and efficiency in vehicle valuation – for easy pricing in the used car and leasing business.

Continental’s SINDRI solution offers a clear advantage here, because the automatic recording of current vehicle values saves time and avoids manual errors. SINDRI also acquires additional vehicle data, which cannot be accessed by conventional evaluation procedures – and this increases the vehicle valuation’s level of detail.

SINDRI is also easy to use. All you have to do is connect the relevant DAD (Data Acquisition Device) to the OBD port and press “Start”. The app then automatically performs a full vehicle scan in a maximum of 5 minutes and delivers all the data to you in JSON or XML form – either to your backend or directly to your smartphone or tablet.

Technology

• Wireless access to vehicle data via an OBD2 interface and the Continental DAD
• Android, iOS and Windows apps for simple, fast readout and evaluation of vehicle data
• Continental backend for user administration and updates
• Interfaces for the extended use of the readout data within an existing infrastructure
• Cannot perform runtime binding on a null reference
