I drove on highway using RON95 as i mentioned earlier,
yesterday(sunday) i tried RON97 travelled AOR-TPG-IPH-TPG-AOR
average fuel consumption is 7.1L/100km. maintain speed at 110km/h, sometimes 120 when overtake, and 80-90 at Sg2 - Juru expressway.
But the problem is, when on the way go and back from Ipoh, car carried 4 adults, 1 kid. really like powerless la...
mayb bcoz of the stock minyak from factory kut (b4 1k km service).
I juz serviced my car at 950km, hvn't tested on highway yet, muz w8..
cost is RM338 including gear oil....damn expensive la!!!
but i really hope, this time, car will hv more power, better fc than b4, smoother and more quiet ride.....well, my family was very very impress with this car, wider and bigger, but not longer than nissan grand livina, with an excellent FC(with stock factory minyak).
AOR SC is very good, the ppl there very kind, any problem ask them, they replied back very friendly matter. Service, consider very fast(compare with my old toyota SC). i really recommend the SC here....very good service. well, i asked abt my headlamps problem(local technician), they told me technicians fr. korea said is our weather problem, and they will work on it, make sure my headlamp can coup with the heat weather here(33-38C). hope this will improve their QC too.

Yupe, that is true. I purposely paid attention to that when driving the altis 1.6, and saved the info in my handphone, as i knew i would be getting my forte soon and would like to compare this.

Hehe, my car plate number is finally registered. Will be getting my car tomorrow smile.gif smile.gif
*
congrats!!! i hope u will surely love ur forte than ur altis...

btw, i tot altis oni got 1.8 or 2.0???

haiya, altis oni got 110bhp(if not mistaken), where forte got 124bhp...(like IAFM and CPS), yet, i dunno much bt altis engine, but i m assure u, forte engine is very quiet and very good FC. kia technician told me there's 1 customer, his forte 1.6sx can go AOR - johor in less than RM80 petrol...not sure correct or nt, bt that's wat he told me.

urs forte bright silver??? haha, we're twins then....xD

you purposely ask the SC to change gear oil for you or they "advise, suggest" whatever it is to ask u change?
if u change by ur willing, then ok la.. if not please call kia-careline to f*cK upside down.
should be RM227+- only.
*
they din ask me.....they juz advice or suggested me 2 change only...coz last time when b4 i booked forte (when i booked saga se)
they also mentioned the same thing....advise that 1st 1k service change engine oil ....to prevent gear from malfunctioning b4 next service....
2 person asked the same thing, that's y i go change....but u all nv told me dun nid change.....hehe...jkjk....i din ask u all..my mistake tongue.gif

mine 1st service only change engine oil fully syn costs me $25*.00....
In receipt stated that 5 units used...
Means they used 5 units of small bottles of engine oil which costs $50 over per bottle.
I'm curious why they need 5 bottles instead of 4 even thou mine is 2.0sx. hmm.gif

nope, mine here, use caltex 4L 1 tub....

Im going for my 1st service maybe this friday.

It's advisable to use fully synthetic oil right? 5W30? There's only 1 kind or are there many kind leh?

I stay in shah alam, should i go to Kia Service Center in Puchong/Jalan Tandang or any other suggestions?

I think i need to make booking tomorrow. Thanks biggrin.gif

Did you put some protection on your head lamp, I asked the tint shop to stick the so called "invisible shield" on my headlamp, damage rm280...after did my tinting there.
invisible shield?? what's that?? never heard before....my HL not damaged..acually, is the weather causes it, coz the SCT(Service Centre Technicians) told me KT(Korean Technicians) told them, is not HL problem, is weather problem....
in Alor Setar, the super heat temperature can go up to 38C, today up till 37C......since now is back to Korea, they will do heat and cold test with QC and QA.....

That is a transparent material that stick on the head lamp and fog lamp to protect them from getting stone chips and to prevent them become "dull" or yellowish after 2-3 years due to hot weather here.

Actually what happened your HL, cracked due to high temp or got condensate water/vapor inside?
Quiet here, maybe they are still having teh tarik at Oldboy TT....... biggrin.gif
