Racing fans attending Automechanika Birmingham this year are in for a treat, with the opportunity to learn more about Bosch’s new Motorsport Lucky Draw promotion, from the Extra loyalty programme.

Launched in 2015, Extra rewards workshops buying Bosch automotive products such as wiper blades, lambda sensors, spark plugs, glow plugs, filters, fuel pumps, ignition coils, drake drum, brake discs, brake kit super pro, brake pads and shoes, and brake hoses and wheel cylinders. The barcodes of these products equate to points and these points can be saved and exchanged for great gifts.

Registration for Extra is free and those signing up receive a free-of-charge welcome pack and freepost envelopes to get them get started. Those who register for the scheme at this year’s Automechanika, on the Extra stand, will receive a free size 5 Extra-branded football.

Bosch will also be introducing the new Motorsport Lucky Draw with 150 prizes to be won. Those who send back 20 spark plug barcodes will be entered into the lucky draw. There are 25 limited edition spark plug motorsport trophies available per round, engraved with the Bosch logo and containing a real motorsport spark plug. 50 lucky winners per round will receive an OBD 100 diagnostic tool.  Top prize is a Bosch diagnostics bundle which includes the KTS 590 communication module, a one year subscription to ESI[tronic] Master package software and a DCU 220 laptop and tablet in one, perfectly suited to the rough workshops environment.

With the KTS 590, a garage no longer needs to purchase different OEM PassThru hardware solutions to cover the range of cars that they are likely to work on. Proven to be able to support PassThru on at least 14 OEMs with testing on other OEM vehicles still ongoing, the user can connect the KTS 590 to the car, enter the OEM portal with a laptop, access the updates required and send the updates from the portal to the car through the KTS.  The KTS 590 is also the first independent aftermarket product with Diagnostics over Internet Protocol (DoIP) capabilities, working up to 200 times faster than high speed CAN.

You can find the extra stand in hall 20, stand 20K101.
