A batch of 36 air-conditioning wiring diagrams were added over January and February, along with an extra 114 repair times, 18 service schedules and 27 clutch replacement procedures.

Sixteen new models were added over that period – the Jaguar XE (15-), Mazda3 SP24 (14-) and Mini One Hatch (14-) among them – plus 753 updates to new models, again including wiring diagrams.
