The latest verified repair solutions added to the TaT database by professional automotive technicians.
About TaT Repair Solutions
The Automotive Technician (TaT) Repair Solutions database is a collection of real-world, verified vehicle repairs documented by professional automotive technicians working in workshops across Australia. Each repair solution follows a structured format that mirrors how a technician approaches a fault: starting with the customer complaint, working through the diagnostic sequence, and arriving at a confirmed fix.
How Repair Solutions Are Created
Every repair solution starts as a Technical Assistance (TA) case within the TaT network. When a member encounters a difficult fault, they can raise a TA case to get help from the community. Once the fault is diagnosed and repaired, the full diagnostic journey and confirmed fix are converted into a permanent Repair Solution. This means every entry in the database represents a real vehicle that was actually diagnosed and fixed — not theoretical troubleshooting.
What Each Repair Solution Contains
A complete TaT Repair Solution includes the customer complaint (the symptom as described), a problem summary, the diagnostic sequence (step-by-step process used to identify the fault), the confirmed fault description, the verified repair procedure, recommended repair time, and often images of the diagnostic process. Many solutions also include technician tips — practical advice that can save time on similar jobs.
Professional Diagnostic Resources
Beyond repair solutions, TaT members have access to a complete diagnostic toolkit: a fault code library with thousands of DTCs, known good scan and scope data for reference, AI-powered diagnostic assistance from Tech Tina, OEM service information links, and a community of experienced technicians. All of these tools work together to help technicians diagnose and repair vehicles faster and more accurately.
