On 29th May 2010, at the Maritza Hotel in Plovdiv, Bulgaria, we held the 3rd automatic transmission for Eastern Europe. The seminar was organized by Diamond Transmissions, ET "PENEV - Pencho Penev" and Automatic Choice Europe BV.
After welcoming the delegates, Fred Vendrig from Automatic Choice Europe gave a short introduction in which he outlined the busines activities of Automatic Choice and Diamond Transmission, before introducing the speaker, Coen van Beek from the Netherlands.
Coen van Beek covered general information about the CVT transmission and continued on to give detailed information and prodedures during the day, covering the following units: BMW Mini Cooper, Nissan Murano, Nissan Micra, Mercedes 'A' & 'B' Class, Ford CFT23, Audi Multitronic 01J and ZF 6HP26.
We also had a translator, Atanas Dakov, who translated the seminar into the Bulgarian language. In all the event had 53 delegates from 35 different companies. The delegates all received technical litrature on CD's and in books from the speaker.
The delegates were able to discuss their problems with the speaker during the event and during the open discussion forum at the end of the seminar. Feedback from the delegates was very positive and it seems that they were satisfied with the technical information given, as well as the answers to many of their technical problems and are looking forward to the next seminar..
We would like to thank Coen van Beek and all the delegates for making this a very successful seminar.
