then you should expect longer lifespan lah.. hmmm.. really the tyre is hard and the thread still good after 31K km..
but one of my tyre got uneven wear and tear. so i should expect less....

yeah.. alignment prob. but one tyre geylong one; the uneven wear & tear is obvious on particular spot.
it's an old dent, never fixed yet, then causing those problem.

no lah bro. because hit pot hole lah. my area and KL area in general full with pot hole. my hometown also.. sighhhh.. i drove it for 10 months already.. what is the size for you myvi rim? 15"? 16"?

17" and above prone to dent lah.. the bigger the rim, then the bigger chance for rim being dented.

dude, you're not a fortezen and dont know much any latest development.
do you know how many still cant get their car after 4,5 and 6 months?

malaysia is a small market. lots of demand elsewhere also need to take care off.

cannot bring even at dealer SC. but once warranty expired can bring lorrr (at dealer)..
as for branch, cannot bring at all whether warranty still there or already expired.

i will go tek ming tomorrow morning for rim fix.
they quote rm40 per piece for 17"
will try to nego for our club benefit coz 17" tend to dent.

balancing is cheap though.. only rm6 per piece. not sure on alignment. will check it out

at the same figure for forte (if fully synthetic). rm300 (fully synt + gasket + oil filter; inclusive labour and charges and free carwash)

what he meant by expensive if the price for engine oil in which cheaper much outside and this is applied to all SC.

Added on September 28, 2010, 3:29 pmservice charge depends on what part they're changing. if just engine oil change should be cheaper at rm70

poor you mate.. that one free not because of your loyalty and being a fanboy of them ka?
LOLz...

yes? why? speechless? LOLZ

my advice. dont buy car other than japs made. if forte later she join this forum and u and her arguing with each other. not a good thing for marriage, hahaha

lolz...

my advice for fellow fortezens..

dont feed the troll..

last time we manage to ignore this fella and he went away for quite long time.. until recently come again and troll newbie here..

so just do it again.. cheers

just ignore the troll. dont feed any.

yeayyyy!! thanks god you're coming here..
at least something to talk about.

you're looking for 1.6 or 2.0?

can we discuss bout our beloved forte?

eh.. 2.0 got test drive unit? where? branch or dealer?
yeah u can get 220km/h.. in your dream.. hek hekkk..
there is speed limiter for 2.0.. official figure from manufacturer is only 200km/h

i think no 2.0 owner dares to abuse their beloved.. coz all new car.. hahaha

i know. its you!

sorry all!!! apparently the previous shop try to con me!!!

i've went to Tek Ming Tyreshop in Sunway, and according to the supervisor, there is only 1 rim dented where the rest is fine!!

lucky i went for 2nd check at other shop or else i kena potong leher already..

damage
1 X 17" rim fix = rm40 (market price is rm70 - they have their own machine and didn't outsource to other shop for repair)

balancing = rm6 per tyre = rm24

total cost rm64

i didn't go for alignment because i already did that at previous shop.

i really recommend you to go for Tek Ming as the professional attitude shown towards me and cheap service. (except alignment in which a bit expensive at rm30). however, you could always nego for better price..

p/s: our rim is tough and hard. if dented for surely u hit some pothole hard and fast with sound like "gedegangggggggggggggg"
