Abstract

See full text

A method and apparatus for the maintenance of mechanized equipment such as an automobile is disclosed. Various sensors located within the automobile provide information to an on-board computing device, a personal digital assistant, or a local computing device which are networkable to a network such as the Internet. The information may be transferred across the network, and service obtained appropriately. Information located in various remote servers relating to the performance and service of the vehicle may be downloaded across the network and easily used in servicing and maintaining the vehicle. Optionally, the apparatus includes a notification system, such as an email system, for notifying of, scheduling, and/or paying for services.
