Common issue, ESC OFF light indicator is on right after car start but i dun see any LYN Forte members got the issue.

That is perhaps for older ppl...more young blood like u & me here are rising.. No way to deny hat 10 years ago KIA is really left behind.. But, they improve very fast.. Is on par with jap car now..Is on par..

ya! my mistake.

i tot Naza has sold 500 cbu unit for the 1st batch?

Hi guys,

I need some answers to my FC problem, is someone can help.

I had driven my car since chinese new year eve and I could get abt 550KM for one full tank. The second time I also get similar mileage. However after I service my car my mileage drop to below 490KM per RM80 fulltank.

Worse still, the second full tank only brings me 430KM. Its getting worse, how come?

I only suspect that it could be due to the semi synthetic oil they use. The Authorised service centre recommended this engine oil brand SK!!!
He claims that this brand is very famous in Korea like Petronas to Malaysia.

Another possible concern is that the rating for the oil is 10W 40. What are you guys using and whats its rating?

Thanks

no choice...many malaysia mind are only thinking H and T are good car.......

still remember when i mention want to buy forte to my fr....he direct said korean car cannot buy...this not good lah, that no good lah....
until i force him to go see the car....he immediately silence......i was so shiok.......hahaha

then after test drive....i complain 1.6 a bit underpower....he direct said maybe cannot go genting......i almost fainted.....that the kind of ppl i dislike very much.....

Their feedback is leaving in 10 years back.. They never update their infor.. They not even know what is GEMA Engine.. What is Theta engine.. Example the Theta 2.0 Engine.. The horse power is 145.. And it is the most powerful engine in 2.0 not even T or H 2.0 has this horse power..Never mind la.. let us fight back by creating a good image for KIA on this generation..

most probably before service u drive ur car in "aunty" manner..after service, ur car's performance got better and u drive like real u..heheh
just my 2 cent..

Probably I drove it too hard.
180KM/hr

how dare you.. 180Km/h still expect 15 cents fuel consumption.. haha

well..thats it..
btw, anyone here can share how much its take from KL-JB..I mean the fuel consumption..
just want to make comparison with my current car

no wonder laaaaaaaa

Hie,just for u guys to have a look at.

Saw this blue color Forte in KL just now.

Obtw,why do they have the word Cerato next to the word Forte on their car?

10W 40.


use 5w-30

or any 30 oil or below like 20
40 is heavier and fc may be higher.

but driving style also changes fc

mine is at 450 unless i drive like granpa else very consistent at 450.

because it is from singapore

Yes, the Forte is smart enough to turn off the headlights just in case you forgot. I've left the foglamps on a few times and didn't even realise it... if it was older cars it might have just killed my battery.

Don't bother what they say ler... I got the same stick when I decided to get the Forte. At the end of the day you're the one driving it.
Kelisa also can go up to genting if you step hard enough... those genting tests are merely hearsay... I don't know why Msian drivers/reviewers like to use naik genting as one of the benchmarks.

Ooi.. ada polis wei...

Sometimes depend on the fuel as well. I got 7L/100km last 1.5 weeks..... 602km for 42.14L.... best so far but it was a different Caltex from the one that I used to fill up. I've a feeling that the petrol stations around my current residence are giving me crap petrol.

The Forte is known as Cerato in Australia (hence Cera ), Middle East, and Brunei.... Singaporean versions call it Cerato Forte. Elsewhere it's known as Forte.

hmmmm den maybe I'll just leave it like that, rough sound more macho hahhaha doesnt sound like a sissy

Everyone says the same . Spare parts very expensive, drink fuel like water etc etc... right in front of my face . I wanted to shut them up by saying " it's OK , I can afford it" .. but I didn't of cos.

Genting, my friend's Kancil went up Genting with 4 'not-so-thin' passengers. hahaha! But I didn't ask them how long the journey was. Or whether the 2 came out of the car and help push it up the hill.

80% highway, but being naughty and frequently speed up to 110 and 120 in short bursts to overtake those gigantic lorries... Very scary sial... The computer's calculation was fixed on 7 for most of the time, but once head back to city it shot up to 8... That was only for the past week though, pumped from the usual kiosk near my current residence now and immediately can feel that Cera is drinking more... that's why in my previous post I mentioned that I've got a feeling that this petrol station is giving me crap petrol.

We'll see how much is the FC by next week... maybe after 4K km now the FC is improving...

the car's distributor also plays a part lo.... just look at naza... i believe a lot of ppl cancelled orders already because of no definite delivery date.
