bc last few days, now alreadi V2 8 pages. 1st TT oso over, saw 1 white forte in puchong yesterday.

done my 1st service in puchong branch cost me RM228.20, free cash wash and vacumm, but i asked not to wash my car just water spray cos just "glow", also ask to check the alignment like fortelover tend to move to left and its free.

at what maximum rpm that u rev? 

me want to rev also after this.. but scared also.. haha..

around 6 or 7, almost red. no need to maintain that rev for long time. it is just similar to the link u sent, accelerated then decelerated. if you want to find a good place to do this, I would recommend MEX high way aka KL-putrajaya high way, indeed toll needed. Since it is straight, less car(especially weekend) and long down hill, you can go all the way to 180km/h easily.

p/s: don't do it at night, got illegal racer sometimes. And be careful

oh. so ur next service will be 10,000km also?

i guess it's around the same price then... at the service branches. so for a warranty of 50k km / 2 yrs, hopefully we only need to go to the SCs for 6 times only... if nothing else got problem 

Yup, they use synthetic oil, next service will be 10k km, the charges in on Engine oil and filter only.

did you get the engine oil box? they throw it or give to you?

nope, just the bill indicate Petronas Synthium 3000, service was done inside workshop we not allow to enter.

hmmmm.. just worry that they use the leftover to the next car. coz it still have some amount of oil right.. 
will try to ask for the box next time..

Autoworld Review

read review above & thinking to downgrade the rim to 16". is it a good choice?

It was a bright sunny afternoon along the North-South Highway. A W210 Merc E280 was cruising southwards from Tapah, with the speedometer hovering steadily between 140 and 150kph. As the occupants enjoyed the cruise, an unfamiliar looking car was closing in on them, lights switched on and right signal blinking.

It was a sleek-looking car, futuristic even. It maintained a distance from the Benz, patiently waiting for a chance to overtake. A kilometre passed. No reaction. Two kilometres. Nothing. Three, and it went on. After a while, the car behind was moving across the Merc's rear view mirror. From his left wing mirrors, the Merc driver saw the car behind finally making the move to overtake from the left.

It didn't take long for the car behind to pass the Benz, showing in all its glory, the 'NAZA' badge adorning its bootlid. The marketing tagline for the Forte is that it'll leave you speechless. I'm curious if that was the Merc driver's reaction when I had passed him without breaking sweat in what was a 1.6-litre Kia with steel rims and wheel caps.

Ok, that was a bit of a fantasy, but trust me, the Forte is a fabulous drive. It's here, and it's a bargain.

here are the pics of my baby....    

wah~ u actually rev it up to 6-7k rpm...
i think i'll follow ur step... rev it high to gain more power in future...
so u believe it really helps.. right?

the possibility is there, unless u can witness they open a new box for u, may be puchong service center not so good, try check with other service center.
