Advanced Automotive Fault Diagnosis covers the fundamentals of vehicle systems and components and explains the latest diagnostic techniques employed in effective vehicle maintenance and repair.

This textbook will help you learn all the skills you need to pass Level 3 and 4 Vehicle Maintenance and Repair courses from City and Guilds, IMI and BTEC, and is also ideal for higher level ASE, AUR and other qualifications. Advanced Automotive Fault Diagnosis covers the fundamentals of vehicle systems and components and explains the latest diagnostic techniques employed in effective vehicle maintenance and repair. Diagnostics, or fault finding, is an essential part of an automotive technician’s work, and as automotive systems become increasingly complex there is a greater need for good diagnostics skills. For students new to the subject, this book will help to develop these skills, but will also assist experienced technicians in further improving their performance and keeping up with recent industry developments. In full colour and including examples of the latest technology, this is the guide that no student enrolled on an automotive maintenance and repair course should be without.

Presented at the 1993 ASME Winter Annual Meeting New Orleans Louisiana November 28-December 3, 1993.

This volume contains the Proceedings of the 2nd IFAC Workshop on Advances in Automotive Control, the theme of which was control of automotive systems. Eighty delegates participated in the Workshop, presenting a total of thirty-nine papers. Several technical demonstrations were available on-site. Two plenary lectures presented by industry experts opened each of the two full days of the Workshop, which was capped by a panel discussion with industry and university participants. These Proceedings comprise high quality technical papers on five distinct subjects: control of vehicle systems; control of intelligent transportation systems; control of hybrid-electric powertrains; powertrain modeling and estimation; and powertrain control.

This reference is ideal for anyone, from students to professonals to hobbyists interested in the latest government standards and procedures concerning automotive emissions.
