Hi LowyatNetters and Fortezen,

I am an owner of 2.0SX with the Titanium Silver colour. Traded of my X-Trail 2.5 for this car. Earlier wanted the Sportage but didn't go for it as the waiting list was 2-3 months though I liked the SUV very much (plus I'm 6ft 4, so need a big car,haha) but so far am satisifed with the Forte I got. Bought it from the Naza Auto Mall at Federal Highway. Got a discount on a bodykit & tinting, and free door visor and K emblem (front & rear). Not much freebies and realized I missed a good deal from other SA's after reading this but it's ok..no point crying over spilt milk.

Preferred the black or red coloured ones but they stopped production,damn. Anyway just dropped by to say Hi.

May I know what’s the step to use the push start button?
Somebody told me that step to the brake, then press the button.
Somebody say that press the button first, then step the brake, and press the button again.

Normally we using the key, we will turn to standby mode, after all the light is gone, then we start the engine.
*
Normal Way:
1. Press Start button once
2. Press Start button again, wait for a while for it to complete check up routine (like what u said, wait till some light indicators gone)
3. Step on the brake and press start button to start the engine


By Pass (if the switch struck/mulfunction on step 3 above)
1. Press Start button once
2. Press Start button and hold it for 10s, engine will start.

well, for dashboard issues, u can solve at SC...ask mr. arul's help....
as for power, try change your battery to higher amp type..like current is 55, change to 70/75.....that will give extra boost of electricity to ur car, and add on ground cable(not the 1 with voltage stabilizer), change to iridium plug and simota/k&n air filter......that will boost ur car's performance...juz remember, never mod ur exhaust....
