What it can do
| Tool | What it says it does |
|---|---|
find_part_number | Find which part a Ford, Mopar, GM or aftermarket part number is, which engine it fits and what it replaced or was replaced by. Dashes and spaces are ignored; at least 4 characters. Returns up to 25 parts. |
get_failure_modes | Every documented failure mode of one engine platform: name, provenance tier, how common it is and the first symptom owners report. Open a failure's page (get_page) for root cause, diagnosis, fixes and parts. Use list_platforms for the platform ids. |
get_page | Return the markdown version of a Torque Index page by its path, e.g. /platforms/cummins-6_7/, /failure-modes/<id>/, /parts/<id>/, /recalls/<platform>/, /repair-costs/, /blog/<slug>/. Use the URLs returned by the other tools. |
get_recalls | NHTSA safety recalls on record for one engine platform: campaign number, date, component, model years and the summary. Whether a recall is still OPEN on a specific VIN is not known here. The recalls page (get_page) also lists defect investigations and manufacturer bulletins. |
get_repair_cost | The parts budget of every documented failure we can price on one engine platform: band, low and high USD, whether the prices are exact (Dave's Auto Center retail). Parts only, no labor. |
get_service_specs | Owner's-manual service cards for one engine platform, one card per manual year: oil capacity, grade and the maker's oil specification, oil/fuel/air filter numbers, coolant. |
get_symptoms | Given what a truck does (hard start, power loss, white smoke, coolant loss, noise, DEF warnings ...), list the documented failure modes that show that sign, per engine. Lists documented causes; it does not diagnose a truck. |
list_platforms | List every engine platform Torque Index covers, with its page, recalls page and part count. |
lookup_vin | Decode a 17-character VIN (via NHTSA vPIC) and return the matching Torque Index engine platform, vehicle configuration pages and the recalls and bulletins that apply. Fitment is year x model x engine; cab and wheelbase are not modeled. |
search | Find concept pages by words: engine hubs, failure modes, recipes, symptom pages, blog guides and reference hubs. For parts use find_part_number; for a specific truck use lookup_vin. |
In its maker's words
US truck engine reference: VIN lookup, part numbers, failures, recalls, repair costs, service specs.
