QUOTE(ivancychong @ Jan 19 2011, 04:42 PM) hi guys, my forte had this rattling sound at the front passenger side...somehow its either from the door panels (which i send to setapak SC to solve it but the sound come out again few weeks later ) or dashboard...any owners here with experience with this prob? Last time mine also can hear rattling sound somewhere from dashboard especially when going through uneven road..after checked by technician they found out the sound actually came from sun glasses compartment on top!just adjust my sun glasses position and until now my cabin really tip top punya silent..

Though I believe in KIA as a car manufacturer, I don't believe in NAZA as their distributor & after sales service.

Yeah..!!  just like getting a girl  .. u need to know her 1st,then you know how to care for her right...  After 6 weeks with 6k mileage, so far no major issues...water vapor in the front 2 lamps disappear with usage.. squeking sound from front driver seat resolved on its own after 1 month usage..didnt even bother to fix it..maybe i am too heavy..sound disappear with my heavy weight on it...fuel consumption is acceptable for a 1.6. ride is more towards comfy setting in summary..its a car that serves its purpose without having to pay extra for other brands with similar or even lower spec Enjoy....

QUOTE(vaio pavilion @ Jan 20 2011, 01:01 PM) that would be because its a proper way to start your car. push once ON, push second ACC, and then only u start (3rd push+braking)... same like the conventional way, 1st twist your key to ON position--->ACC---->Ignition
