Yesterday I drove from PG to KL @5:30am for my Autofoam/SP at KL Auto. Had a nice chat with Desmond and a few interesting customers (I think my wallet got squeezed dry by him). But the service was excellent and he was pretty generous in attending to any complain...just don't get too addicted to his "poisons"  sweat.gif. It was pretty late as there were a lot of cars there. Everything was finished at 11pm when I drove back to Penang  rclxub.gif

Hey Titarium or Rikeys, any plan to add KL Auto contact in the main page? Looks like a worthwhile visit for some folks here...
I got that sound on the second day I got the car  sad.gif ....imagine being "high" and then suddenly hear this. SERIOUSLY REDUCED MY CARGASM!!!

...Anyway, good to know that someone is sharing my pain  tongue.gif

Mine was a cushion noise from around my back that kept giving squeaking sounds whenever I moved. I sent it over to Naza SC (Juru Penang) twice but they weren't able to solve it. Finally the boss told me they would replace the whole seat. I'm waiting for it to come.

Or...you could just spend 2k and change to leather seats  biggrin.gif

meaning really cannot be solved? =="

ggeatweb,
So, you finally SPed your car. What did you do? Package? Worth it? Can test your car or not? tongue.gif

Hmm...I'll need to wait a few days to see the "full effect". I think some of the tyre noise is still there (but has been reduced a lot), looks like changing rim/tyre is the best way to totally eliminate it.

I can say I kena "sweet talk" by Desmond until I spent a huge amount of money sweat.gif. But I have some ideas on which package would be most "cost effective". Sure you can test the sound, just pm me and tell me if you wanna meet.

Either way, you still need to bring to service center la. They might be able to tweak something. But if these kinds of sound come out I suspect is a manufacturing defect. Send it quick so that they can diagnose quickly and place the order for new seat quickly (if need replacing), just need to be patient and wait until the new seat comes.

Update: I got another sound, humming sound from the engine. Server dealer said it's due to power steering pump. Need to replace that sad.gif. Adding the "rust bubbling" on the door paint, I've made 3x warranty claims so far sweat.gif

Very much agree! At first wife was thinking to get a car with maximum FC saving.. after a few test drive we decided to commit on Forte.. based on safety & comfort. Personally FC wise it's just depends on how u drive and the condition of the road (jam or smooth driving). smile.gif

I would said, comparing my prevoius kancil and my forte
FC is just the same. RM 40 in kancil gave me 2 weeks use, RM80 in forte 4 weeks plus few days. So for a 1.6 engine and 660cc engine to have same FC, what else for me to complaint. FC doesnt really matter for me. Forte is a car that sastify you every moment u drive it.

If I am not mistaken shud be 3.0-3.5% depending on the total amount yrs old instalment (can bargain oso la.. tongue.gif ) If u worry, look at the first page and the amount of ppl getting the 1.6sx.. it's totally speechless.. btw LYN ppl are mostly street smart and wallet smart.. wont guide u to dead end wan.. anyway a test drive is the best cure.

Haha...that was a combination of rev, petrol type, and mineral oil. Also, during first 1-2k the FC seems to change due to the engine being new. The FC indicator is a good thing to check frequently so that I can control the right foot better tongue.gif

I think ~14-16sen/km is the "standard" number that most people should be getting.

Anyway, that's a good number for a car that weighs around 1250kg with 1.6 engine. Last time my 1.3 Iswara gave me around 17sen/km too (it was much lighter).
