if rev hard can see increase in temperature? my experience  (not forte) with cooling water hose leak, temperature increase slightly only (almost at midle line) when cruising (that time around 140kmh) but when stop, temp immediately redline.  ohmy.gif eventho no water for sometime, temp didn't seem to increase because cooling from air at high speed. of course it differ among cars due to where it take the temp, etc. IMHO, temp should not increase from normal level, if increase, cooling no good already, deteriorating. i didn't notice any temp increase during revving hard from penang-kl. but hard to compare what with only bar reading. anyway, becareful... smile.gif

i haven't notice any noise inside my forte so far... but recently, when the engine is running, i heard like a "tik-tik" sound from the engine bay when i'm outside... didn't check in detail yet... anyone know bout this prob?
*
Yup..me too..And I believe that most of the "Young" forte drivers here had break in their forte engine....Feel the difference...Some more it wuz advicable and recommended by the expertise.....

Dukunet...Is it becaused of hard push on your machine during travelling PG-KL-PG that induce a noise...?

Hi everyone, I have a question, when I sent my car initially for wheel balancing and alignment, the odometer was 357km but when I collected the car, the reading was 363km. Is this normal or did one of the SA decide to take my car for a joyride? hmm.gif
*
ruth1977,
Dun worry, I dun think they use your machine for joyride.furthermore, the difference was only few km only.My car is even higher.The have use around 40km++ for testing my alignment coz the need to try and eror.in fact they use a ong straight road to test onhigh speed.Anyway, I'm in the car with the during test driving.After all, satisfy with the alignment....

Hi Forte Folks...
Just to share some nice view on my Forte...hehe.170km++@4500rpm during last week engine Break-In...
Even it wuz 1.6, There is still a "power to surprise" feel during the shiftronic gear autoshift once the RPM
needle hit the redline....not bad...:-).
