Checking with you guys, anyone of you have this issue?
When driving above 80kmph, you will hear some noise (minor kriit kirriiitt sound) coming from somewhere, sometimes it's loud enough until I can hear it even with my radio on.. At first I thought it's because of my aircond, so I turned it off, still can hear the sound. Then I checked interior, nothing seems to be causing the sound as well (nth in my drawer, steering lock is placed properly.. etc etc) It's a 100% that I can hear the sound whenever I drive above 80kmph..
Went for my 1k servicing today, the NazaKia Service center claimed that the noise is coming from the tyres and it's a common issue for Forte. The service fella said he can hear the sound as well and it's normal.. Any new 6 Speed owners having the same issue? They told me to give NazaKia careline a call and engage the tyre manufacturer and see what they can do.
One thing I don't understand is, if it's with my tyre, wouldn't it happen whenever I drive? Why is the noise there when I'm driving above 80kpmh? They (service center ppl) say it's because of how the design of the tyres works.. Weird answer..
It's pretty darn annoying to have that noise around as I'm always driving above 80kmph..

Izzit a sound of something loose? Or it's a whistling sound? If it's a whislting sound you wind down your window after 80kmph you can hear it from your side mirror..
