Ardmore Toyota & Central City Toyota participated this past week in handing out coats to children at the West Philadelphia YMCA, which is located just a couple blocks from our Central City Toyota location. We are proud to support the CARing for Kids Foundation and to put a winter coat on a child during these cold months ahead.
The event was a huge success and the children were all so happy to get their new winter jackets.
With the cold weather and snow already here, the children got their winter coats just in time!
Do you know any children at the West Philadelphia YMCA? We would like to hear from you!
Are Your Brakes Talking to You?
Hit the brakes.
Hear anything?
You shouldn’t. Braking noise indicates a problem. Screeching, grinding or pulsating noises can indicate worn brake pads or damaged components. Noise doesn’t always occur when braking, either; a persistent squealing while driving down the road is a warning from your worn brake pads. Visit your service mechanic immediately to keep your brakes safe and responsive.

One Reason for Toyota’s “Green” Image
Looking ahead, all automotive forecasts say the industry will move towards smaller and more fuel-efficient vehicles, which should work in favor of Toyota because of its established image as a fuel-efficient make. And, with its strong customer loyalty numbers, Toyota will be seeing many more returning hybrid drivers than its competitors.

Got Spots?
Accidents happen. But we're not talking about fender-benders this time; we mean the kind where you stop short and your coffee cup goes flying to the floor. There's no shortage of cleaning products, so ask your dealer what's appropriate for your car. Using dealer-approved products will make the job easier, faster, and make sure the fluids won't harm your surfaces. Chemicals can be unpredictable, though, so just to be safe, test the product on an inconspicuous spot before treating the affected area. Have questions? Remember that your dealer will help you make your car look as good as new!
On Thursday, October 13th, 2011, Ardmore & Central City Toyota donated 90 coats to kids to keep them warm in the winter months. The Foundation is called Auto Dealers CARing for Kids Foundation. The campaign is called “Driving Away the Cold.”

The Automatic Transmission: Your Car’s Heart
An automatic transmission is your car’s beating heart. Standard on most new cars, it allows gears to speed up without you making adjustments. Day after day it carries you from zero to 60 and back again—all you have to do is hit the pedals. There’s only one thing it can’t do for itself: maintenance. Every transmission has different needs, but they typically need to be serviced every 50,000 miles. A regular service schedule will keep your car running and help you avoid the high cost of a new transmission. Check your owner’s manual for the recommended service schedule.
