dun wait hopeless naxa to rectify it, we cn diy fix it as wt i'd done. aftr months of puzzle, finally I found out which part of d mirror causing d noise. now so proud of mysef for solvin a case which naxa cn't do a thing bout it. Booo to naxa kia n i bet Kia didn't put tis mirror in wind tunnel test. hw cn a flawed design lk tis rolled out fr factory huh?? it's act of insulting my intelligence as Forte's owner, given tat I forked out so much $$ for it's product n damn naxa jz sit bk n let me troubleshoot n fix my own prob, saving thm a replacement mirror for me!?! wtf? forgiv me for being furious cz naxa stil owing me 3 replacement parts since 4-5 months ago. thy r simply pathetic, incompetent n SICK!!! bt anywy thr's a thing which naxa gud at- selling car, fast!

Sifu can share with me how you rectify this issue? I'm so sick of this..

Has the facelifted version of the Forte launched yet? Is it the one with the 6 speed gb? Price?

I ain't no sifu,i m a try n error guy,same as naxa crew.jz tat i lov my ride much more thn thy do. My solution simple: jz nid a black/carbon fibre sticker (15cm x 0.5cm),cover d gap btw mirror cover n black plastic mounting. Done!

guys one noob question, does the forte comes with alarm? as in if someone try to open your door there's will be some siren/sound coming out?

kinda confuse here due to i'm reading forum post where ppl need to upgrade their alarm system the moment they get their car

Naza KIA representative called me today and booked a service date for me for them to do a check on the side mirror and compare with the test drive vehicle..so let's see how..abit Malu to go back there again..haih..anyways transforter you can send a message in Facebook and let them know..they handle complain dam fast!

bro, which facebook acc that u send? i wanted to complaint on my seat squeking sound, after fixed, the sound come back again, so annoying, especially everytime i take the corner, the sound sure have. i wanted to change a new seat!!! pek cek....

Omg I got this same problem when I gotten my car!! Dammmmmmm pekcek man!!! I finally solved it myself by spraying WD-40 at the metal part connecting the chair to the roller..you look under and can find the silvery metel thingy..spray there..but nvm you can complain at Facebook too.. Goto Facebook and type KIA MALAYSIA.. Write a complain there I deleted mine cause they already called me so I'm going to service center on Monday as they arranged for me

Added on January 27, 2011, 8:37 pmOh yeah guys forgot to tell you..I spoke to kia mechanic and he told me the reason our car steer to the left because when shipping our car here to Malaysia they had to tighten some stuffs to ensure our car doesn't move while in the ship..so this cause the car to steer left cause of the tightening..and we can claim warranty by asking them to fix this for us..maybe some other ppl have some reason to that problem..

seems like warranty issues huh .... BTW good news ,

i went to tribunal court with KIA and court had ordered them to replace my dashboard without any charges within 3 days from the day of award.

in their defence, they said they had offered to change the unit after i spammed their decision not to give warranty in few forums. So, lesson learned.

SPAM ALL U CAN AND MAKE THEM NOTICE !!!!

if you have gone through all the warranty booklet and still think urself is in the right place.

TAKE THEM TO TRIBUNAL COURT AND F*** THEM UP THERE.

I met their Assistant manager also, he say normal warranty issues will be handled by lower rank officers... he gave me his card as well, maybe u guys can call him up and report to him if u pek chek with the doings of lower ranks. his name is ROZILA ..its a man BTW.

just now i post it on kia msia fb, but i dont c my msg there. is it they filter it? for seat issue, i believe eventhough u spray with WD40, i believe the issue will come back after sometime. i prefer permanent fix without spray something, somemore it will cause smelly.

anyone of here know where to get this bulb protective cover?

If i'm not mistaken, the side mirror is local assembly right? Because when I saw the mirrors from US and AUssie edition it looks different?

it's there.. click "others only"

they're in mfc portal. few already got their car.

same one.. probably the one you saw is new facelift version.

Most of the time tribunal court will award consumers

if u have a firm ground to stand on, then u can win.
