QUOTE(knickerboxers @ Mar 5 2011, 10:23 PM) guys i have a question about ESC, yesterday i was driving on a normal condition road and sudently the ESC indicator light is ON and my car starting to get sluggish a bit for a few seconds (i think becoz ESC is ON) but the indicator light wouldnt go away it remains ON even until i reach my destination about 10-15 km away, turned my engine off. so is the ESC indicator light should remain ON or not?after a while i start my engine again the light is no longer lit.. so is this condition normal or what, coz i just got my car about a week ago and only noticed this yesterday. thanks sifu.. - btw i took a slight corner, which i consider normal, not dangerous corner or antyhing its just a u-turn when the light started to come on |

@faujc99: I suggest u go back to the previous page on the difference as it was discuss many times here. Else u can go to any KIA showroom and ask the SA. I don't think you will get reply on this.

If you compare 1.6 EX and SX, you get a lot more from 1.6 SX despite the 86k pricetag for SX such as the keyless entry, stability controls such as EBD,CBC,BAS and TCS. If not mistaken 1.6 EX only got ABS. 6 disc changer, electric folding mirrors, reverse camera, rear parking assist system, fog lamps, fully auto air cond, bluetooth handsfree, paddle shifters, telescopic steering. thats about all that i can think of. that's 7k extra for all these goodies, not worth it? The reverse camera alone is damn worth the premium over EX models! |

Anyone know the latest interest rate for Forte?
SA is telling me the longer years you take the lower interest you got Eg: 3Yr 3.9% 5Yr 3.7% 7Yr 3.6% Is that true? |
