Need your advice.

How long does it usually take for Naza Kia to deliver the car after payment of booking fee?  I was told by the SA that it will only take them 1 week.  I have waited for 1 week already but the car is no where to be seen.  SA has given various excuses from staff on leave to Hari Raya to system down etc.  Now they are saying I will get it only another week later, which brings the total waiting time to 2 weeks.  But I am not sure whether to trust them.  Plus, they want me to pay the full 10% deposit before I can see the car, but if I don't get the car, they say if I ask for refund, it will take 2-3 months!

The other thing is, they say they will take my car as trade in, but will not deduct the balance after repaying my bank from the total payment to Naza, because they say they will issue a separate cheque to me 3 days after I give my car in.  In other words, I have to pay the full 10% downpayment by cash, although I will be getting some cash back from trade-in.

Could someone please guide me on the procedure for trade-in and the waiting duration?  Mine will be Titanium Silver Forte 1.6sx

Dude,

anyone of you change your front windscreen before?? the actual price is how much?? which SC is the best to replace the front windscreen???

really bad luck... this morning while i'm at Kesas highway, a flying stone hit my windscreen.... its crack now.... thinking to claim it as i did insure it.... but I will loss my tinted.... shit... all are money involving in this world....

The problem with the Vios is that the rear end is slightly elevated. On normal drives, the rear tyres have much lesser road contact compared to the front tyres. During braking, more weight is transfered to the front (more so if there arent any rear passengers). This reduces the tyre contact even more and causes loss of braking friction from the rear tyres causing the car to spin if braking is done while taking a corner. Slamming the brakes hard will make it much worse. But we must also remember that the Vios is a light car unlike the Forte. It weighs less than 1 tonne.

But this doesnt mean that with your ESP you cannot meet the same type of accidents. You must always remember that the ESP reduces your chances of an accident but it doesnt eliminate it altogether. It has its barriers and when ure going too fast no ESP will help you in an emergency situation.

Best thing is to always drive as if your car is not equipped with all these advanced safety features (except for the ABS feature which u need a change of braking technique). Being overconfident will only bring more harm than good.

Wow scray to see a car skid in front of you. Lucky you wasn't following too close...haha really ESP prevents alot of accidents but we can't take it for granted..just to share I was driving my myvi(sold off already) and in front of me was a avanza..both of us was on the 2nd lane(middle lane) of 3 lanes and we were going to make a right turn..while the avanza was turning right..a freaking stupid myvi driver from the 3rd lane(right turn only lane) went straight and knocked the avanza at the rear side and the avanza flipped 3 times before landing on it's side..and the worst thing is there were about 7 people in the avanza and the myvi sped off..all the window shattered and everyone in the avanza was seriously injured(not wearing safety belt). Anyways if the avanza has ESP the story will be different..I'll try to post the pic of the acident soon..

Here is the avanza accident...I was one of the people helping them and noone there has a first aid kit..thank goodness I always kept a first aid kit in my car and it was useful on that day..



Just came back from melaka and I noticed this when I was washing my car..





THE PAIN!!! I'm guessing it's a stupid useless driver that couldn't estimate the turning and freaking hit my car!!!

Anyone knows a good place to knock and respray? 

another FC review from me..

80% highway 20% city
mileage clocked 629KM with 70KM DTE remaining.

last time i manage to clock 643KM with 70KM DTE with stock condition car on 100% highway.

       

imagine if current car condition running 100% highway..

on last time u managed to clocked 643KM is on 80% H; 20% C?

Maybe i should join in with some technical arguments...ive been quiet for some time...bogged down with work

The air ond on Auto mode, why is it that everytime my sis reduces da temperature, the outside air will come? How to overcome tis?

Thanks!
