The National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence (ASE) is conducting a survey on light vehicle diesel engines. This survey is the next in a series of studies conducted to better understand which repair tasks are performed most frequently.

ASE certification is not required to complete the survey. To show appreciation for those who take the survey, ASE will randomly award five participants with a $100 Amazon gift card.

As an industry created and directed organization, ASE depends upon the industry for input. Task lists and test questions are written by industry subject matter experts (SMEs) from independent repair shops, dealers, aftermarket suppliers, OEMs and trainers. The responses to this survey and the others in the series will help drive ASE certification standards as well as technical training.

To learn more and take the survey by April 28, 2025, ASE Light Vehicle Diesel Engines (A9) Task List Review Survey.
