Free App Helps Walker Exhaust Customers

Tenneco launched a new, free mobile app to support its Walker exhaust products business.Walker-MobileApps-2014-CMYK

Available now through Google Play, the Apple App Store and walkerexhaust.com, the app includes resources like a VIN scanner; a library of technical and troubleshooting videos; a dealer locator; e-catalog and more for automotive service professionals looking for Walker emissions control products for a repair.

The VIN scanner allows the user to scan the vehicle identification number and locate the specific Walker EPA- or CARB-compliant converters needed for the repair, Tenneco said. After the user scans the VIN, the app takes the user to the Walker product catalog for that specific vehicle, displaying the Walker products available and providing detailing information specific to the application.

The app also provides direct access to videos included in the Walker technical library like the “Walker 13 Steps to Diagnosing Emissions Control Issues,” “5 Checks to Perform When Replacing a Converter” and many others.

The e-catalog allows the user to identify Walker products for a specific application, while the part search function allows the user to look up by the Walker part number and see detailed product specs, features and benefits, Tenneco said.

The dealer locator uses the mobile device’s GPS signal or city, state or zip code to determine the nearest parts seller offering Walker products, and includes a prompt to allow the user to call the retailer and a convenient mapping feature.
