Today i went to SA and complaint about it, and he bring my car check the alignment, and the mechanic said ntg wrong with the alignment, he said is chamber, and he said should send to SC to pump the chamber (i have no idea about this), he said if i do chamber fixing might void the warranty, really headache about this... cry.gif
*
Mine changed the chamber @ driver's side wheel.....
+chamber alignment, wheel alignment, balancing, switch sides..(front to back/right to left or vice versa)

changed the chamber also cannot solve this issue??

so you had voided the warranty?
*
no...my warranty was not void....
all i do is....let SC knw what the tyre shop man told us
then, all we nid 2 let them knw is.....ask 1 of their technicians 2 follow us 2 the recommended tyre shop
let him talk 2 the tyre technician which told us nid 2 change chamber....
then let him report back to SC
SC might order the chamber....take est. 1 week time....
when chamber arrive, then do...with chamber alignment, n wheel alignment
if still lari, change tyre side...(front-back/left-right) if uses stock kumho tyres...

Anyone did any comparison with Honda Civic 2.0 or other 2.0 cars cos i am thinking to get the 2.0 but not sure what is the average FC for a 2.0 car like. Still can;t decide between the 2.0 forte or the 1.6 forte.
*
i m using 1.6 ....petrol consumption(from what i heard) is better than 2.0
2.0 more power more omph.... FC not that high either, surely slightly higher than 1.6
wan best FC, go for 1.6EX(nt that much features 4 u though)

As far as the FC is your concern, the answer is yes. But power, safety & features wise, the 2.0 got the advantages i must say

i would consider that as a design fault, and likely not fully correctable. You can bug naza, have it realigned multiple times, and still will have the problem. if it is not significant, just accept it, as i do now.........
*
i can't consider design fault also......
alot of ppl said....our stock kumho tyres very kacau 1....
i go ald 6 tyre shops, all of them said the same thing...
my alignment, n chamber all shows good and accurate in computer reading....
so, i guess is the tyre fault....
they said there are few korean tyres are very kacau 1...this is 1 of them, so, bare with it la...
if wan, change 2 other brand....

hi all Forte owners, I've read all the comments and experience from u all in the thread. I'm planning to get this car too, but the problem is my fater will be "shouting" (DUN BUY KOREAN CARS)(my fater = Toyota KAKI). So what shud I do to or tell to encourage him that this is a superb car compared to T & H in the similar specs cars?

Please advice.
*
the best way is
let him test drive the car...ask the SA to let him test drive....
my dad also toyota kaki....owns 1st. Toyota AE101 buy new@yr1992(still own it till now)..stil happy with it
2nd. kancil (sold after 10 yrs, coz FC getting higher) no quality car
3rd. toyota avanza 1.3(the worse toyota car ever bought...sold it after 5 yrs)
4th. trade in avanza for NS G.Livina 1.8(sound proof worse of all...but great FC)

then, when i wan buy this car forte...same thing, all my family members(include grandpa n grandma) rejected....
i din let them test drive coz no test drive model available....so, i argue till he let me buy...
after get the car....the 4th day, we use the car to Ipoh, Taiping then back AS. my dad sat it....
really speechless, same as my grandpa (go Ipoh coz grandma admitted hospital)....
the power ald good enuf, the FC at that time as low as 7.2L/100km....

now, they dun complain....juz only make sure me don ever sell the car ....for at least 15-18 yrs....

I don't think is the tires, it should be something to do while mirroring the shaft and the whole balance from left hand drive to right hand drive

i dunno.....all of them told me is tyres issue, and some of them claim 2 b after change to different tyres, no more lari 2 1 side ald..


QUOTE(titarium @ Jul 6 2010, 01:14 PM)
well I have been traveling using this car for 1st half of the year with family to Alor Setar & Bentong as well

NS highway performance was good stable and nice pick up especially after Ipoh where's there are the winding up hill stretch so proven a good car even NVH was very impressive so mum gave a tumbs up

Karak needless to say up hill and down hill with alot of winding roads, FORTE did it's mark thou require abit of rev at the uphill stretch before the tunnel area. NVH and stability given a 2 tumbs up by parents.

btw in Alor Star I do stay around Mergong area ..... near to the market there (Mergong just down the road rite)... can't recall the name of the taman only knows it is near the big market
*
u r saying along jalan putra or along jalan gangsa??
if jalan putra, the there are tmn rakyat, tmn mutiara....
straight deeper, after the morning market n pos office, opposite is kampung berjaya, and deeper inside is tmn mahawangsa..
along jalan gangsa, after fish market n the new bridge is tmn pelangi(opposite EMUM), and tmn delima right after a chinese temple(opposite Proton, Toyota n Chin Hin motors)
mine is along jalan putra, b4 tmn rakyat, n tmn mutiara....there is a tan cheong nissan car dealer shop....mine around there only...

hehe....i think u should knw d....the reason i said 15-18 yrs coz this car got no 2nd hand value, so sold off early is juz waste of money....as well use it for long term...
like my AE101 ...from 1992 till now, still in very good condition...coz accident free(of coz with some scratches.....made by my cat :-( )
