Will be going for my first 1k service tomorrow..

King Long on my Forte Have it fixed with Mr. Choong's help..
Also, there was a small "scratch" at the rear bumper... also got it fixed with "glow" @ no cost! Mr. Choong of SierraGlow is really helpful
btw, about the emblem, very easy to remove.. current badge was entirely "stick/tape" to our Forte, no screw involved.

Went for first 1k service @ Jln Tandang. They used Fully Synthetic and total bill is about RM230. Next service @ mileage 10,000km.

Filter-oil, Gasket-oil plug, and Syntium 3000. that's all... even my alignment also they fixed for free
Forte when out of kilang, the alignment is fixed by machine. I noticed mine keep moving to the left, so i asked them to check...
Now my Forte is a perfect drive - ngam2 clocking at 1000km

i like this one.. but can correct the group name ar? it's MyFORTE... with "M" in cap.

I asked, but it's already a empty box.. So i didnt take it.

They are using Naza wheel cap, not sticker.

58mm in diameter, if not mistaken.

I believe it matches. Better check with others.

Shamsul, can you update the above on MyFORTE FB discussion board? easy reference for others.. thanks!

Just saw the Forte commercial on AXN, haha

you need to reset the FC reading. I did that (resetting the FC) quite frequent nowadays..

Advise from Service Centre:
First service: ODO clocked at 1000km
2nd service: ODO clocked at 10000km

This is because we are using Full Synthetic.

I think you are right - cause when I asked why not 1+10km = 11km, they said it's easier to monitor (10km) by that way...

can choose? not too sure. They claimed that better to use fully synthethic since our Forte is using timing chain.

yup, can not bring own oil..

Petronas. They used Syntium 3000 for my first service.
