As with all Launchpad eCatalogs, the light vehicle catalog enables users to search, view and/or purchase parts – within one user experience. Launchpad features an “Add to Cart” ordering function tied directly to customer accounts. Users do not have to be logged in to search for an application, but if logged in they can easily add parts from any electronic catalog to the eCommerce ordering tool, MAHLECleviteOrder.com.
 
Launchpad is the first Web-based catalog of its kind to include an electronic ordering function tied directly into customer accounts. It allows the user to search for light vehicle and heavy-duty applications, and select which parts to be included in the order, all through one user experience. The online catalog part number information is comparable to MAHLE Clevite paper catalogs, but is updated in real-time through electronic updates.
 
Ways to use Launchpad:
• Search light vehicle and heavy-duty applications;
• Utilize search wizard to look up by year, make, model or engine;
• View full part detail containing part images and specifications;
• Print part details;
• Utilize the comprehensive interchange search;
• Add parts from the online catalog to the online ordering tool, MAHLECleviteOrder.com; and
• Easily view the latest new part number announcements and product obsolescence.

Drive Belt Alignment Alignment is key to the health of an engine belt. The belt drive system is designed to create friction between the grooves on the belt and pulley to transfer power from the crankshaft to the alternator, water pump or power steering pump. If the grooves on the belt do not align with the pulleys, the friction won’t be evenly applied and can result in wear and noise.
