Personal
Vehicle maintenance: schedule, DIY parts list, or a shop — you order
Service intervals slip until the dash light or a shop surprise bill.
What hurt
@GrokBotUses tip: Grok Bot can track vehicle maintenance, remind when service is due, and for each job give a DIY parts list or a shop to try. Author-quoted prompt in the first reply — ends with don't order, book, or pay. Tip + quoted prompt. Not affiliated with xAI.
What to install or create
Paste prompt with VIN/mileage → review reminders → you buy parts or book the shop.
Bots
Vehicle desk
Tracks service due dates and DIY vs shop options — never orders.
Plugins
None on day one. Follow the first-run steps.
Routines
Remind when a tracked vehicle service is due; draft DIY parts or shop option — no order/book/pay.
The prompt
Vehicle maintenance tracker (author-quoted)
Quoted from @GrokBotUses — as published. Do not invent a second system prompt.
Last line is our approval fence: Never send, post, spend, or buy without my explicit yes.
My vehicles: [VIN or year/make/model, mileage]. Track the maintenance schedule, remind me when service is due, and for each job give a DIY parts list or suggest a shop. Don't order or book anything or pay. Never send, post, spend, or buy without my explicit yes.
First run
- 1Read https://x.com/GrokBotUses/status/2116689270228263252 and the prompt reply https://x.com/GrokBotUses/status/2116689271415324931 (credit @GrokBotUses).
- 2Paste the author prompt; fill [VIN or year/make/model, mileage] for each vehicle.
- 3Confirm the bot will remind on due service and list DIY parts or a shop — never order.
- 4When a reminder lands, you buy parts or book the shop yourself.
- 5Keep cards out of chat; pay only on merchant sites you open.
Approval fence
Don't order, book, or pay — bot drafts lists and reminders only.
What to tweak
Steal the quoted maintenance prompt; bot reminds, you spend.
