BTW, I was a bit shocked when i saw that the 30km/h and 50km/h on the speedometer without any light and was very disappointed for the defect, but after checking Forte.my and the broucher, well it is by purpose and not a defect ... anyone know the reason for not lighting up 30km/h and 50km/h? 

Another thing is the power window buttons for back passanger are without any light, not like the driver and front passanger (with red light) right?

hi, there and all..

been really hard to catch up these days... too many pages...haaa.. its exploding!!


btw, about the mark at the speedo..
it shows the minimum speed for up shifting on manual... 30 for 3rd gear and 50 for 4th... tried and tested.. unless MY ECU programs is different.. try it..
nothing happen if you up shift below 30 to 3rd gear... nice rite??

btw..

happy X'mas and New Year 2010 to all!!!!

Guys,

Yesterday, when driving my Forte, i started to notice that my 'No Fastern SeatBelt' LED in the dashboard is not ON when i didn't do so. 1st, I thought the LED is burned, so i tried out by 'Pressing the Start Engine button' without pressing the break (While the engine is OFF). That way, i saw the LED is ON for 1 sec, then OFF again. It proves the LED light is not burn. Even the driving is moving, it still no warning.

Is there any configuration need to set ? Difficult to accept that it is technical fault after driving the car only to 400km  milliage in total.

Thank you.

I just checked the manual. Below is the extract :

If the driver's seat belt is unfastened after the ignition is ON, the seat belt warning light blinks again for 6 seconds. If the driver's seat belt is not fastened when the ignition switch is turned ON or if it is unfastened after the ignition switch is ON, the seat belt warning chime will sound for approximately 6 seconds. At this time, if the seat belt is fastened, the chime will stop at once.

From this statment, it is something wrong with the technician, the manual or my car ?

Think nothing is wrong here.. just that AP model selected those cheapest reminder mode haaa.. its just the same.. basically redundant flashing light... haa

Talking about deffect ... I experience the following major problem yesterday after work and this morning  rclxub.gif

When i went in the car, closed the door and stepped on the break and pressed the start button, all the electronics were cut off. No horn, headlights, meters/LCD ... all not working, like the battery is out and the engine won't start  shocking.gif

I try to slot the remote in the slot below the start button, and it didn't work. I opened the door and closed it (seems like the eletronics came back whenever i opened and closed the door) and tried to start a few times (its like when the car doesn't have enough battery, it starts half way and die off) and finally got it started after 4 - 5 times. When my car finally started, the time and radio channels that i have set are all gone  mad.gif ... it is impossible that the battery is out cos my car is so new and i set auto headlight (the light will auto turn off when i off the engine) ... anyone experience the same problem or have any idea what went wrong?

Hi, There

just to check if you on your fog light too.. to my test, our forte fog lights doesnot seems integrated to main system esp main key cut off (mine dun have push button!!! cry.gif ) and just to verify to if my comes with maintenance free batts too? i.e. if i keep fog light on with main light, when remove key, the fog light will still on!, but main lights off...rclxub.gif this leads to batt drain if you are not careful...

just my 2 cents..

they advise me to take fully synthetic.. which is.. RM230?
however i choose mineral type... the whole service only cost me RM85+~

performance wise... i did feel it's better than before service.
