His nick in LYN is something like 'Spectra+Forte' if i'm not mistaken

I dont think the new Forte reverse camera comes with that smart alphard/estima feature. It just a simple box only to guide u to relatively estimate the distance of the object behind your car

Your alarm is your honk to be exact

Laa..pkl 12 baru nak mai..org lain pakat balik pukul 11.30, so aku pun cargas la..tunggu penama lg. Lain kali mai la awai sikit bro

It's been discussed a lot before..kindly use the Search function

On the bottom left of the thread (above the thread page selection)

Me also got soundproofing material sticked inside the trunk lid..& it makes my trunk lid heavier than before. I guess i will suffer the same failing also..

I think for Forte 2.0 (4 speed), putting 6.5-6.7L/100km for highway (110km/h autocruise) would be a safe figure. 6.1L/100km that i managed to get during my trip from Alor Setar to KL i figured it out on purpose (drive with fuel saving methods in mind & light footed). So for normal highway cruising (110km/h) with some overspeed overtaking maneuver, 6.5-6.7L/100km would be an easy figure to achieve

Your highway speed?

Me also..just follow the rule now. Dont want headache later on..

By the way, your FC on the highway is higher than me. Maybe due to many hilly roads on your trip or perhaps u speeding up to 120km/h most of the time

Both brand will do just fine to our car..but for me, if no BHP around, i will choose P rather than S

I agreed..that's why i put the '2.0' emblem

Guys..i managed to update the maintenance cost comparison table by adding some Proton cars..no Inspira though

Here it is :


p/s : bro SMK, kindly update this on the thread start page. TQ.

Every 3 months or 5k km, which one comes first..same for all cars right (if using mineral oil)?

& yes..it includes labour charge except for the first 3 services

TQ for your info bro. Already PMed u

Of course..
Kenapa..tak percaya??

Well..this table is the latest one since i just got this new info. Only updating on Forte 1.6 (fully syn oil). Credits to bro Taipan, Mr. Arul of KIA Selayang Service Centre & an anonymous LYN member for providing me the info



Seems like there are only about RM2xx increase in maintenance cost for Forte 1.6 (fully syn oil) for 5 years duration. I noticed it is due to an additional item (cabin air filter if i'm not mistaken) been replace for every 30k km of service.
