Non-VCdb Applications (Grey Market)
PDM automatically updates to the latest version of Autocare's VCdb (Vehicle Configuration database) within 7 days of its release.
Application/Fitment data is then re-validated to assure compliance. Vehicles that were imported and never "officially" available in the United States will have their fitment data flagged in red. These can be referred to as Non-VCdb, Parallel Import, or Grey Market vehicles.
