Dayco has added a new member to its aftermarket team, with the appointment of Chris Showan as the company’s Technical Manager.

Chris brings with him more than 25 years of aftermarket knowledge and experience having previously worked with Supra Automotive/Moprod, Quinton Hazell and Schaeffler.

Chris says, “Joining Dayco UK is an exciting challenge for me and I’m relishing the opportunity to work for another quality OE approved manufacturer and in a team and with an organisation that is growing its share of the market.” He adds, “Workshops face many issues when it comes to the correct fitment of many aftermarket parts, and power transmission components are no exception. It is therefore important that we are here to help technicians grow their knowledge and improve their skills in order to raise overall standards.”

Welcoming Chris to the company, National Sales Manager Steve Carolan said, “The addition of Chris to the UK team is great news for both Dayco and all our customers. He will be the primary contact for all matters technical. This means that he’ll be on hand to assist with everything from queries on fitting procedures, training to help technicians follow best practice and improve their workshop efficiency, as well as to guide them through the warranty process, should a claim arise.”
