I've done some summary for standard maintenance cost of Forte, City & Civic up until 100k km (5 years). I was unable to find other car's maintenance cost like Vios, Altis, Lancer, Sylphy. Anyway, here it goes...

thanks for the answer, actually by all mean im not pointing on forte only but most of the electronic driven's car here, camry, civic, forte etc. For me i guess it is well tested until someone come out with those electronic problems.
*
most of the time the only problem likely to occur is when the fuse is blown. thats all. and for other electronic problem because of wiring being tempered with 3rd party stuff.

den how come it wil be cheap in long run?  hmm.gif
*
it will be cheaper if using labor charge in SC for example.

every 5K for mineral = rm60
every 10k for mineral = rm60X2 = rm120

every 10K for fully synthetic = rm60

so every 10K u'll pay double service charge if using mineral.

errr.. should able to last 10K lah.. coz using fully synthetic ma..

later someone ask.. if oil filter can last until 10K.. why we must change at 5K (for mineral)?

again. it depends on what engine oil that u use.. hehehe.. just use my assumption lorr.. correct me if wrong...

forte accounted for more than half of naza's sales in the 1st half of the year... an achievement i'd say.
without the car really dunno where naza is among the car trouble makers... if naza is considered one tongue.gif

I tried pressing the brake and press the button to shut down the engine, while I trying to lock the car the system complain there are the key still in the car and auto unlock as of key inside car behavior (but I already took out the key from the car).  sweat.gif

I resolve the problem by on the engine and shut it down again without leave my foot on the brake pedal. If it happen to you next time, you can just follow the same way I does.

no need press brake to shutdown the engine. hmmm.. interesting finding.. i shall try and experience it myself. kekekekke
thanks for sharing this info

• You exceed the operating distance
limit (about 30 m [90 feet]).
• The battery in the transmitter is
weak.
• Other vehicles or objects may be
blocking the signal.
• The weather is extremely cold.
• The transmitter is close to a radio
transmitter such as a radio station or
an airport which can interfere with

When the transmitter does not work
properly, open and close the door with
the ignition key. If you have a problem
with the transmitter, contact an authorized
KIA dealer.

Just to confirm, 10k service means when I reach say 11300km right? Bcoz the sticker says 10k but 1st service already 1300km (10+1.3k = 11.3k).

And yeah.... now rainy season, its a pain everytime i drive whitey out even not rainy on wet roads... all dirty streaks (no mudflaps for BK).
*
just don't exceed 12K km as per stated in the voucher (below part got t&C on free labour)
