QUOTE(jiro-kun @ Apr 27 2010, 05:52 PM) haha for me it's not the issue.. of who is worst.. haha.. whats important is the product itself.. my god was it a huge let down.. when I first saw it.. haha.. it's like i'm seeing a slightly better version of Gen - 2.. lolz.. the interior.. i think.. even Myvy is better.. lolz~! lots of problem eh?Ppl.. complain about the 2nd hand value.. but for me.. i think.. i wanna own a car.. that i'm satisfied with.. i dont want to own a car... and have that.. "fu** i can't believe i'm paying 900 permonth for this piece of sh**.. haha.. but yeah.. hopefully no let down from Forte.. however from what i can read from this forum.. quite a number of problem.. has been identified.. and its a bit scary too.. haha ok lah i shared mine 1) alignment lari = fixed at maystorm puchong. but heard Puchong SC can fixed them. as at now no conclusive solution and not all SC able to fix. have to admit this is the major problem for most forte out there 2) door rattling sound = some true but some not true. coz some rattling only occur after install tint. happen to me after fix dent at my door (some owner after fix tint, fix them after send back to tint shop for fix) 3) dashboard rattling = happen to me coz not tint yet and park car outside. applied to any cars out there. best example is my gf's vios. same situation park outside with no tint = result with dashboard rattling sound (car < 1 year old) |

QUOTE(twtang @ Apr 27 2010, 06:09 PM) Guys, thanks mr twtang. thats what we all need. further information on what had happen before and after.Let me provide a quick updates: When they fixed my seat squeeking sound, they also found that the back door got sound and opened the trim and put in additional foam. However, when put back that time, the door handler was not in proper position. That's why I couldn't open the door. [attachmentid=1549749] As for the seat, they took entire seat up and found that the spring was causing the sound. This guy has explained quite clear and I was also asking about the compressor abt the white forte. He was saying, that is really rare case that the particular air cond compressor manufacturer has this issue. Not only Forte, but globally. So, i presume this compressor is used by global on most of the auto-mobile. Something just trigger me, maybe we should find a way to extend the warranty. Just too risky. by reading your previous post i thought it's a defect. but it only occur after they try to fix the sound and put additional foam. QUOTE(kiaforteclub @ Apr 27 2010, 06:10 PM) no.. not a GF.. but GFS (plural okay) |

QUOTE(cuz @ Apr 28 2010, 03:58 AM) May i ask why park outside + no tint = dashboard rattling? i really dun understand the hidden meaning... errr.. coz people tend to claim its a defect without giving full information to others.in my case, i will not call it as a defect. the dashboard rattling only occur recently after 4 months of hot sunny day and coldness of night. park in open parking space.. it means that if i tint my car, probably it can protect my dashboard better. |

QUOTE(fortezen @ Apr 30 2010, 10:53 AM) yes, go research on other cars in this range. acceleration power is all about power-to-weight ratio. High torque is generated at a particular 'sweet spot' in the RPM band. not a problem for me. at first kinda feel the lag. now the ECU already learning my driving pattern.I think the problem u're refering to is the huge and heavy sports rims for 1.6sx. Some feel the initial acceleration not so good bcos of that. so guys.. "teach" your ECU on your driving needs. |

QUOTE(mrpcr1 @ May 4 2010, 02:29 PM) Rattling sound was heard at the second driver side. Any one got this problem? rattling sound got 2 types. one from the door panel and another one from the seat itself.MyForte: 1.6 SX White....WTT 32xx door panel = if occured after tint, please resend to tint shop to fit the door panel properly (if they open it). if not check with SC seat = send to SC, i think some screw need to be tighten.. forgot who post about this issue.

QUOTE(lingwu @ May 5 2010, 11:14 AM) guys, i think my forte might be the first one in LYNN that had the crack on windscreen problem. apparently, so far no forte in malaysia had that problem yet unlike in singapore. Anybody had this experience? What do i do? QUOTE(lingwu @ May 5 2010, 11:53 AM) no stones...the crack starts from the bottom of the WS. Parked under hot sun till next day till wake up and noticed the cracked. Anyway, called my SA and was adviced to go to SC in Jln C.S.L. Didn't buy WS insurance either la...however, i've read that most car WS is 2 layered and if outer layered is cracked or chipped, it can be repaired. No need to change WS (and redo tinting again) u notice the crack before u enter the car or after u enter the car?u open the window before switch on the aircond or not? can compare with me becoz mine always park under the hot sun (1st batch, now 5 months old already) now your case really make me scared..

QUOTE(lingwu @ May 5 2010, 03:42 PM) Noticed the crack upon driving. Didn't open the window when switch on the aircond. And this is first time i actually park the car under the hot sun for so long. Mine is the 2nd batch actually. hmmm.. i just follow tips from others. applicable to all cars out there.Again, I dun think it is a stone chip as stone chips crack is different. I have lots of that when i was driving my Civic ET1 going towards port klang on kesas consistantly at >150km/h.. This forte i have not even go above 120km/h cos wife's car mah. Really really bad feeling now. after park under hot sun, never ever switch on the aircond with full load without opening the windows for few secs. usually i open the window to let the hot air to come out. just for a few secs only.. the most i let the window open is for a min. but again dunno whether this is the case.
