My front seats both headrest seems to be too far to the front...

I read the user manual says to adjust, need to push the headrest to the front and have three levels adjustment...

I push push & push to the front but still could not adjust it..

I got mine wrap for leather seat, dunno if the fellow wrapping the leather did something or not..

brother and sisters, wanted to ask.
if i were to purchase 1.6SX. can i change my rim to 16" later.
i like the specs and features of 1.6sx more, but i think that if i were to be in the city longer. i think 16" rim fits me more.
are there any harms? or totally no?
any circumstances like voiding warranty or?

I don't think you would face any problems downgrading to 16" wheels. As long as the rims are 16" x 7" with a PCD of 114.3mm and an offset of ET45 and above, with a tyre dimension of 205/55 16, you should be fine. In any case you can argue that you are keeping within the specs of what is offered on the 1.6EX. Just bear in mind that with a 205/55/16 wheel size your speedo will under-declare by a very slight margin (0.5%) which is negligible. Your car will also be 3.3mm taller which is also highly negligible.

but the pick up will be faster right?
i am not a forte user yet, but if i purchase it, i am planning to change it to 16" tyre because i am worry about the 1.6L engine could not make much performance with such a big tyre. and i am more to city.
is it advisable actually?

Hi guys,
Happy Chinese New Year

My wife had an unfortunate incident on the first day of CNY when a truck reversed into her Forte's door. The damage is kind of bad, the door went in and the window shattered.

Will be claiming the other party's insurance to do repairs but not so sure which Kia Branch does accident repairs. I believe tThe whole door needs to be replaced as it is twisted.

Any recommendation of which branch to go? I live in Klang but I don't mind going as far as PJ to send the car. As long as it is a certified workshop. The car is only 6 months old and I don't want to void the warranty.

Thanks.

Hmm, depends on you de, and what offer you get from Kuantan dealer?
If not so much different you could try nego and see if he able to give you those.
Or, get everything prepared (document) and prepare to visit kl dealer few times for submission and sign the agreement lo..

If interested you can contact the same dealer as mine, not bad imo.

Benjol means the steel belt is broken. Replace it fast before it bursts
