But then some reason I can't take Forte, I can't modify the audio system, experience on third party foremen..... Which Inspira have some advantages here...
*
Can't modify the audio...? which shop you checked...? even BMW/Merc complexity audio system pun shop can modify...
Exp on 3rd party foremen...? are u expect to service/repair your car every month...?
For normal service like change engine oil, oil filter, air filter, gearbox oil... normal 3rd party KIA w/shop can do it.
I trust my normal w/shop at my home. He service all types of car except porsche, ferrari, lamborghini & bumble bee...
1 day i saw he upgraded latest fairlady Z engine to bigger capacity... i thought 350z already powerful...
He said owner still not satisfied... i dunno what else he add-on...

He got a wide of network friends where he can refer if he's not sure on how to repair...
Maybe he's lack on latest/modern equipment but his knowledge is superb...
But u need buy the items from trusted KIA spare part dealer & bring it to them coz normally they didn't keep a stock especially new car like forte. Even oil filter pun kena beli sendiri...
Segambut/Jln Ipoh got a lot... Just ensure the part no is correct...

But major service like change V belt and major breakdown/repair... better go to KIA SC
Don't expect 3rd party w/shop can repair your latest tech gadget...
Maybe they do know about the prob but they don't have appropriate equipment to repair...
They're not billion company...

Sometime our mind thinking this small small pomen isn't good... but u will be suprised coz they can detect a prob faster than authorize SC & provide solutions on the spot... few pomen also come from SC... they quit their job coz like to have own w/shop...

So conclusion, as long as no major service, i'll stick to pomen. Hidup pomen...

Q1: The dealer agree to claim warranty for me wor... they say not normal... it only appear when it is raining...

Questions questions, maybe I didn't read the manual properly.
Q2: Whenever I press the aircond mode to auto, the air inlet is automatically switch to from outside(button with car and arrow going inwards the car from outside). This will give some smokie smell from outside which I don't like. But when I press on the aircond mode from air within (button with car and arrow in the car), the auto mode will turn off. Is this normal? Can I choose auto at the same time have the air within mode?
*
Q1 : It's normal... TRUST us...

Q2 : this one taipan can answer... but i don't like use auto... 'torture' the compressor... just stick to your desired temp & fan speed... threat it 'gently'...

Q1:
Regarding Epo's comment, I don't think it will stress the compressor because you can still set the temperature. The Auto only changes the fan speed and vent selection.
*
oh ye ke... i thought bila dia gila2 change fan speed & vent, compressor must work hard to meet the temp requirement...
then i agree with below la...

(1) switches the fan high (and loud),
(2) often lets outside air in, which usually means exhaust smoke in the city blink.gif
(3) varies the output vents too much. I prefer to only have the front 4 a/c vents blowing. If I set to Auto, it will gila-gila choose the vents, such as leg vent, the vent near the windscreen, and sometimes switch off the main 4 vents rclxub.gif

arghhhh.. i already post how lorrr

takde pun... press more than 10 secs? itu bukan bypass... itu alternative way...
bypass ni mcm u bypass sensor putih kat brek tu... so takyah tekan brek, terus tekan je button tu terus start...
mcm kipas radiator la, bila kita bypass, start enjin je terus pusing w/pun enjin tak panas...
sbb dah bypass sensor thermostat tu...
