WORLDPAC will be offering ATE PremiumOne disc brake rotors and pads for popular domestic, European and Asian vehicle applications. <br /><span class="fullpost"><br />From the introduction of the first hydraulic brake system in 1926 to the development of the first antilock braking system prototype in 1967, the ATE brand has a rich history of innovation and experience in the design and production of advanced brake system technologies.</span><br /><span class="fullpost"><br />ATE PremiumOne disc brake rotors and pads are OE engineered and application-matched to meet specific vehicle requirements. When used together, PremiumOne customers will receive the optimum rotor and pad replacement as specified by the original vehicle manufacturer. <br /><br />ATE PremiumOne rotors feature a patented RotorLife wear indicator that gives technicians and customers a quick visual reference of rotor thickness and helps identify the need for replacement. The wear indicator, which is created by elliptical grooves that are machined into both rotor surfaces, also helps to reduce brake fade and extend pad life by enhancing the dissipation of heat and gases. A MetaCote protective coating is applied to help prevent rust and corrosion so the rotors maintain a clean appearance. <br /><br />ATE PremiumOne disc brake pads are formulated to restore original equipment performance, reduce wheel dusting and extend pad life. The pad’s under-layer design helps to reduce NVH and improve quietness. All pads include shims, slots and chamfers as well as the applicable OE accessories for the complete installation.</span><br /><hr /><span class="fullpost"><a href="http://www.worldpac.com/">www.worldpac.com</a><br /><a href="http://www.worldpac.ca/">www.worldpac.ca</a><br /><a href="http://www.worldpac.com/acctapp/webleads.html">Become a WORLDPAC customer TODAY!</a></span><br /><hr /><span class="fullpost"><a href="mailto:win@worldpac.com?subject=PUT%20SUBJECT%20HERE&amp;body=Please%20send%20me%20more%20information%20about%20this%20subject.">Send Email to the WIN team</a></span><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4165416510531383437-3769864350502176884?l=www.worldpacwin.com' alt='' /></div>http://www.worldpacwin.com/2012/05/continental-aftermarket-announces.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Kelli)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4165416510531383437.post-6189282236316607681Thu, 03 May 2012 19:58:00 +00002012-05-03T17:43:39.149-07:00AftermarketWORLDPAC Training InstituteOEMMOTORBusiness TrainingTechnical TrainingMark WarrenWTISpring General MeetingNASTF<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-1laWhka-EeI/T6LYZQ1KNEI/AAAAAAAABXk/zzHDLr8XCZE/s1600/NASTF.bmp" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="113" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-1laWhka-EeI/T6LYZQ1KNEI/AAAAAAAABXk/zzHDLr8XCZE/s200/NASTF.bmp" width="200" /></a><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-UlPMdddJ_JE/T6LX4Sb_-_I/AAAAAAAABXM/TiHAfUyT8oI/s1600/WTI_logo_300dpi.tif" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="76" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-UlPMdddJ_JE/T6LX4Sb_-_I/AAAAAAAABXM/TiHAfUyT8oI/s200/WTI_logo_300dpi.tif" width="200" /></a><i><b> WORLDPAC Training Institute (WTI) Discusses Aftermarket Training at NASTF Spring 2012 General Meeting</b></i><br /><br />The National Automotive Service Task Force (NASTF) held its annual Spring General Meeting in Palm Springs, CA on April 17, 2012 and the WORLDPAC Training Institute (WTI) was there to represent training in the aftermarket.<br /><br />The meeting agenda included board and committee reports, updates on several NASTF initiatives and a panel discussion on new education and vehicle inspection initiatives. <br /><br />The discussion about new education included a presentation titled the <a href="http://www.nastfenews.org/20120417_SpringGenMtg/PDFs/Warren.pdf" target="_blank"><b>Challenges of Delivering High Quality Aftermarket Training</b></a> which was authored and administered by the WORLDPAC Training Institute (WTI).<br /><br />During the presentation Mark Warren, WTI Instructor and <i>MOTOR</i> magazine contributor, noted, "if the OEMs want aftermarket technicians trained to the best standards, then finding a mechanism to cooperatively share materials with the aftermarket is key."

Some came from as far as Australia and New Zealand to be part of the event. <br /><br />The NCTS was comprised of 2 days of intensive training classes. BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Porsche, Land Rover, and Volkswagen/Audi lines were covered, as well as WORLDPAC classes on BMW, Volvo, and shop management. Along with the training classes, Open Sessions were held for Land Rover, Mercedes-Benz, and Porsche providing the chance for greater personal interaction. <br /><span class="fullpost"><br />"One of Autologic's prime differentiators is the technical support and training we provide for our customers," said Kevin FitzPatrick, CEO Autologic Diagnostics. "The NCTS is an important annual event for both Autologic and our customers, delivering a ton of valuable technical training in a span of a few days. Our NCTS events have been incredibly popular. With a sell-out crowd, the 2012 NCTS has been biggest and best so far!"<br /><br />Classes started early Friday morning. The UK's Brian Chaffe was flown in to teach BMW: F Series. Caleb Pacheco, Justin Kidd, Rob Pevera, Dave Meseck and Steve Young, from Autologic Diagnostics, Inc., taught Porsche, CIP, Mini, Land Rover and Mercedes-Benz, respectively. <br /><br />Saturday's classes included Volkwagen/Audi taught by Gary Machiros, and featured WORLDPAC classes. Special guests from WORLDPAC were Eric Scharping teaching BMW Engine III; Allen Osborne and Jimmy Abercrombie teaching Volvo; and Scott Wheeler teaching Increasing Sales Success. Also on Saturday were the Open Sessions for Mercedes-Benz, Land Rover, and Porsche.

The WORLDPAC Supplier & Training EXPO (STX) took place January 12-15, 2012 at the Anaheim Marriott Hotel and Convention Center in Southern California. The event, initially created as WORLDPAC’s vision to help customers better succeed in the changing aftermarket environment, was the second of its kind and eagerly anticipated following the success of the first event held October 2009 in Orlando, FL. Due to the overwhelming support of WORLDPAC’s customers, the WORLDPAC Supplier & Training EXPO (STX) 2012 was double the capacity of the first event. “Our 2012 Supplier and Training EXPO achieved the goals we set to further support our commitment to our customers and suppliers,” said Bob Cushing, President of WORLDPAC.<br /><span class="fullpost"><br />During the four day event, more than 1000 WORLDPAC customers from the US, Canada and Puerto Rico attended exclusive technical and business training presented by over 40 of the industry’s most respected instructors. The event kicked off Thursday evening with a cocktail reception which provided an opportunity for independent service center professionals to network with their peers as well as suppliers, instructors and WORLDPAC’s management team. On Friday and Saturday, guests experienced full days of advanced level training followed by evening EXPO events featuring over 80 manufacturers and an extensive tool & equipment show.<br /> <br />“The Training Program, taught by the industry’s leading instructors, provided our customers a comprehensive business and technical training curriculum designed to meet the demands of growing their business in a challenging business environment,” said Cushing. “The Supplier EXPO provided our suppliers, all World Class manufacturers, the opportunity to meet the industry’s leading automotive professional business owners, technicians and service writers to discuss their products and programs.”<br /><br />Additional event highlights included special guest speaker Charlie Gorman, former Chairman of the National Automotive Service Task Force (NASTF), who presented the group with a discussion of the changing aftermarket and predictions for the future, a raffle featuring over 100 valuable prizes, and a Hollywood themed EXPO where a cast of celebrity impersonators rolled out the red carpet for WORLDPAC customers. The event concluded with a half day of training on Sunday before guests departed for home with knowledge designed to increase the success of their independent service center business. The overall feedback from attendees was that the event was an invaluable experience and a resounding success.<br /><br />WORLDPAC imports and distributes OE and quality aftermarket replacement parts to independent import and domestic service centers in the US, Canada and Puerto Rico.
