Can you point to the page where this is recommended? When was this proposed or discussed? According to taginfo it seems as if shop=car_parts is a common way of tagging shops for car parts. What does it mean if a shop=car has service=parts attached? Is it selling car parts? Or only repairing parts? How would you tag a place that repairs car electrics/electronics? Why "service" and not "sells", e.g. sells:car_parts=..., sells:tyres=...  and "repairs", etc
What about selling used cars/car parts? What about places dealing only with the paint of cars, or only with the body work? Places dealing with car tuning? Car audio? Historic car parts?
I agree there's a lot of specialized services around cars (and motorcycles as well), and a lot of details that would be useful to know when searching for a place to solve a specific problem, but it needs more than a mailing list discussion to deal with this, I suggest to make one or several proposals for these, rather than skipping this step and adding a few currently not or rarely used tags right into an editor.


cheers,
Martin
