South Korean firm LG Electronics Inc. said Monday that it would showcase its advanced auto-parts related technology at a motor show to be held in Germany this week.

LG Electronics said it would show key auto parts to global automakers during the 2017 Frankfurt Motor Show to be held from Sept. 14 to 17.

Since its first participation in the 2014 Beijing Motor Show, LG Electronics has been rolling out crucial auto parts at international motor shows.

LG Electronics plans to showcase its AV navigation system, auto infotainment gadget, battery heater and others.

Last month, LG Electronics said it will build a factory for the production of electric-vehicle parts in the United States. The factory is intended to produce battery packs for electric cars and is aimed to gradually expand the scope of its operations to other key parts.

Other LG affiliates, such as LG Chem Ltd. and LG Display Co., produce car batteries and automotive displays, respectively. LG Hausys Ltd. and LG Innotek Co. also each supply materials and camera modules for automobiles.

LG Electronics has been making efforts to improve the profitability of its vehicle component business, although the sector's overall performance has not met expectations so far. The division posted an operating loss of 14.5 billion won ($12.7 million) in the January-March period. (Yonhap)

Ignition coils can lose spark energy over time, causing poor fuel mileage and reduced performance and if one coil fails, it is likely the others are on track to fail. Blue Streak Ignition Coil Multipacks include a full, matched set of new, better-performing coils, saving time, restoring performance and reducing comebacks. SMP said other popular kits include complete Standard Turbocharger Kits, Oil Filter Housing Kits, and Fuel Injector Multipacks and Blue Streak Blower Motor Resistor Kits, Camshaft and Crankshaft Sensor Kits, Variable Valve Timing (VVT) Service Kits and VVT Solenoid Kits. In the past two years, specific Blue Streak Kits have been awarded the Best New Product of the Year and Best Problem-Solver by the Import Vehicle Community, a community of the Auto Care Association.
      New coverage has recently been introduced across many of these categories, according to SMP. Blue Streak GDI High-Pressure Fuel Pump Kits have been released for 3.7 million General Motor vehicles, like the 2019-16 Chevrolet Cruze, 2019-18 Chevrolet Equinox, and 2019-18 GMC Terrain. Standard Oil Filter Housing Kits are new for multiple popular makes and models, including the 2024-19 Jeep Grand Cherokee, 2024-19 RAM 1500, 2024-19 Dodge Durango, 2016-11 Volvo S60, and more. Blue Streak Cam and Crank Sensor Kits have been released for a variety of popular Ford vehicles, and Standard Turbocharger Kits are new for Ford, Volvo, and General Motors vehicles like the 2019-16 Chevrolet Cruze and Buick Encore, SMP said.
      Commenting on the expansion, John Herc, vice president of vehicle control marketing at

First, it helps technicians perform a complete repair without having to chase parts from multiple places. Additionally, service writers find it easier to explain one line item on an invoice rather than a list of parts. Whatever their reason, they look to Standard and Blue Streak for complete repair solutions.” The post

      Standard Motor Products Expands Ignition Program
      By Counterman
      Standard Motor Products, Inc. announced the continued expansion of its Ignition Coil program. Standard and Blue Streak offer more than 700 Coils, with new numbers added each month. Blue Streak by Standard Ignition Coils are available in multi-packs for a complete coil service, the company said.
      In a news release announcing the program expansion,
      link hidden, please login to viewexplained that it evaluates the original part, identifies the OE issues, and corrects those problems to deliver improved reliability. For instance, ignition coils on the Ford 4.6L engine generate too much heat, leading to premature failure. To solve this issue, Blue Streak by Standard FD503 Ignition Coils were redesigned with two additional bobbin segments to better distribute the energy, resulting in less heat and a longer service life. Many popular OE coils use a two-piece design requiring an O-ring that breaks down over time, allowing moisture to enter the coil and cause failure. Standard said it created a sealed, one-piece design that doesn’t require an O-ring, eliminating the risk of moisture intrusion. Recently released Standard Coils introduce coverage for the 2023-21 Ford F-150, 2023-20 Subaru Legacy and Outback, and 2022-19 Mercedes-Benz cars and SUVs. Additional new coverage includes popular vehicles like the 2024-22 Volkswagen Jetta and Taos, 2024-23 Ford Super Duty trucks, and the 2020-15 Alfa Romeo 4C. Currently, 15 Blue Streak Ignition Coil Multipacks are available for popular vehicles, with additional applications in development.
      “Our Ignition Coil program is the most comprehensive in the industry,” said John Herc, vice president of vehicle control marketing at SMP. “We’re dedicated to continuously expanding our coverage with coils of the highest quality and best performance to meet the demands of professional technicians.”
