QUOTE(watonk @ Dec 21 2011, 10:58 AM) As an owner, i think you should really test its power. So far compared to my sisters 1.6sx (6spd), after few times compare, confirm Insight faster. But the only niggling issue with Forte that hold me back last time was the pull-to-the-left issue. Test its power...? Opsss mine is 2.0, dun think it's fair to compare with insight... i dun see why pull-to-the-left is an issue... as long as no vibration on steering when on 180km/h and can take nice cornering... enough aldy... mine has been adjusted once during 1st 1k km, after that i never bothered about it until today 25k km... |

QUOTE(leadaxer @ Dec 30 2011, 11:11 PM) Got 2 questions to ask sifu's here: 1) i've tried it many times... once the pump stops, i can't pump few more drops coz the hole so small, can fit pump nozzle ngam2 je... if i push, then petrol will overflow, waste money some more...1) I read somewhere that when we refuel (usually for full tank) we should just fill the tank until the pump stops on its own and to not pump in a few more drops (usually to round it up to the nearest ringgit). Is that true and what is the reason for that? 2) How do u guys calculate or record the fuel consumption? Is it just by using the one's displayed on the lcd screen of the forte or just divide the fuel amount with the kilometers clocked? 2) calculate manually, dun use the one that display on the speedometer... lazy to calculate, dload this... QUOTE(zaFrOoNaLdO @ Dec 30 2011, 11:16 PM) I really like this Forte model. But i had a discussion with my colleague, he said the after sales service for Kia (Naza), is not really good. The spare parts are also expensive compared to other japanese brands. i dunno la which SC he refers, but 3 of this SC confirm very good :-I hope owners here who owned a Toyota/Honda and now Kia Forte or other recent Kia models can give me your views pls. - selayang - chan show lin - kia jns at penang buy spare parts from any SC of course la expensive... try source other 3rd party shop... but frankly speaking, if u have 5 years warranty, why u need to worry about spare parts...??? worst come to worst, items not covered by warranty only need to be changed... absorber kaput - 1 mth salary boleh kawtim... iphone boleh pakaiii... brake pad - celah gigi jeee... front / rear lamp burn - celah gigi jeee... tires botak - upgrade to 225/35/R18...  dent rim - upgrade to 18"... wiper rubber - celah gigi jeee... crack windscreen - insurance kawtim maaa...  the rest if prob, ask SC to rectify laaa...

QUOTE(nujo87 @ Jan 2 2012, 10:21 PM) hey guys,im considering a forte 1.6,i dun mind resale value much,coz planning to keep it long term(9 years) all around the world knows spare part is exp when u buy from them (SC)... but how is the spare part price?since im keeping it long term  as compare to vios/cityas a workaround, try survey a 3rd party spare part shop... they also bring the ori parts... but maybe u need to wait la coz they need to order... even merc owner pun beli spare part kat jln segambut... they also admit that SC will slash them like hell...

QUOTE(invinciblezero @ Jan 3 2012, 02:09 PM) So for spare parts you guys normally opt for 3rd party suppliers? location... jln ipoh / jln segambut... those areas are familiar with 3rd party spare parts...Mind to share the locations near Klang Valley. So for service you guys go to SC but when it comes to change of spare parts>>3rd party suppliers?? if u service with SC, then why u opt for 3rd party? just continue with SC je la... if u didn't service with SC, then baru u opt for 3rd party... QUOTE How about the warranty? I was informed that if you change the parts other than the SC they do not cover for warranty? for warranty, i dunno how it works... i never has a chance to claim warranty since my 1st satria... during that era, SC is really2 sucks, dun have forum or fesbuk to find recommended SC... send SC ask for repair pun tak ok ok gak, still faulty... so i sent to 3rd party, terus ok... after that fobia with SC... wasting my time... but nowadays SC improve a lot... not improve je, nama naik in forum, fesbuk, twitter... people saw that, terus avoid with that SC... some people say u must continuously service with SC based on the schedule. once u skip the schedule, then warranty voids. some people say, minor service can do it outside but major service must do at SC to ensure warranty is valid. minor service like change oil gear + oil filter but ensure keep the receipt. u change the parts other than the SC will have no issue IF they dunno about it. during service, they're not free to check all the parts details in ur car so just keep quiet je la... but IF they found it, then ur unlucky laaa... for sure they will use it as a reason to void ur warranty... in my case, my forte will be 2 years old this march so warranty finish already... so dun have any reason why i still need go to SC, just opt 3rd party je la... my last service, i used hyundai oil filter je, my pomen said can fit so belasah je laaa... until next change, i tgk ok je oil filter tu... so now i know hyundai parts also can use with our forte... i dunno about KIA SC whether we can choose what to service or not, if can, then good la... but during my toyota era, i can choose... eg : brake oil, in schedule stated change at 15k km, i said still yellow lagi dun wan to change, they said ok... ekon also, 30k km service, i said dun wan coz still cold, they said ok... then ur bill will reduce, so ok la not so expensive...
