DTR Editorial Team
Research and editorial
The in-house team that researches, writes, and maintains the reference pages on this site. We are researchers and editors, not technicians — we compile from OEM service literature, SAE standards, regulatory text, and verified repair invoices, and we hand every technical page to a credentialed technician for review before it publishes. Where a page has not yet had that review, it stays a draft and says so.
