So many complains for after sale service.. I would rather service my car outside if i got my car.
*
service outside... trust me...

QUOTE(gagilang @ Nov 29 2010, 04:49 PM)
But if i'm not wrong, once forte are fully manufactured in msia, the price will definitely drag a big gap with our imported price. Just like Hyundai Getz, it was selling around 90k for fully import but now....? Scary man.. And the changes in quality too.. laugh.gif

and what happen to inspira when tg malim can produced themselves? cut the price half too?
but if drag a big gap (RM50k) for forte, i'll buy another one for my wife... worth buying...

You guys want to know what kind of item they change that took them so long to repair my Forte?

Just a set of the goddamn spark plugs. And my Forte is good to go.

doh.gif Heard from the Service Rep. saying that my spark plugs (I've sent my Forte for 30k servicing 3 days ago) got dent due to manufacturer defect (or maybe d technician dropped my spark plugs and simply sumbat w/o checking) , so explain the loss of power and jerking.

I mean, how careless they can be to use defected spareparts on ur car? It can cause serious damage for godsake!
*
the total time spent is overall checking. i bet they did not suspect spark plug as the main issue since it's new.
glad to hear your problem has been fixed.

Oh one more thing..When I'm travelling around 90 to 100kmph..I can hear a "wiiiiiiiiiii" sound from my driver side side mirror...but when I press my side mirror downwards while driving.. the sound will disappear..my guess is the side mirror is out of position already.. sad.gif anyone facing this issue?

gagilang, be patience....
even though they put it that way, by the time u get ur car, sure 100% OK 1....mayb they will repaint(if ur car paint currently faded), dirts(sands as quoted) will b vacuumed, and disc brakes will be restored while u start driving for few days(perhaps hours??) coz they made a promise 2 u that the car will deliver 2u nice and sound...

as 4 my matter, jerking issue, still nt yet solve, as i juz serviced my car juz now...wonder wat problem causes it. the new FSEO(Full Synthetic Engine Oil) is much more better than the previous mobil FSEO..(heard that mobil FSEO used in kancil/myvi 1)...from my dad's mechanic. The seat problem will let SC solved later, as i need 2 use the car.

YIPEE!!!! Finally installed Shark Fin Antenna!!! Looks like 'BMW' now...hehe

brother Xion, how much and where you get the sharkfin antenna... i wanna get one too....... rclxms.gif rclxms.gif

1) when i test d car, the radio reception vry poor... is it true? --> True. not the best. but if play MP3/CD marvelous!! superb!! speechless!!
2) i heard frm fren said the labour is free... so which is true? --> both also true, including labor charge at rm0 (which is free)
3) frm dis forum i read alot of bad abt the SC is it better service at outside? --> sad to say it's quite true. but only certain SC with bad service. personally i already service outside not because of the bad service, but because of cost.
