Code u can get it online. But not necessary, for my case, i just tell the guy i want the k&n for all new kia sportage. Hyundai tucson shares the same k&n filter too. U will be happier after u install it. Haha

Yesterday my SA call me and i ask him when i can get my car! So he told me that actually the car is at gurun already! previously is due to the AP problem so there cant release car because of short AP Permit so no choice you have to wait for CKD (only install the 4 door as mansion) unit! So now the ckd unit is already ready in gurun but still dunno why there dont release the car! haiz!!!!!

All 4 door need to 'hantam kuat2' then can close properly. Don't know why local kia people cannot install this doors properly like korea did. Lucky it's just 4 doors. But i think tailgate also install locally.

I think is because of the QC since so many demand so dont have time to QC!!!

Guys, i need some help.

I am planning to either get a Tucson 2.0 HS or a Sportage.
I would like to know if you are facing any problems with the car? if given the chance will you still get the Sportage?

Thanks in advance.
*
Before I decide to put my money on this sportage i have done some own research for tucson and sportage!
This is some of the pro and con!

Like:-
1: 5 year unlimited warranty: This will make you worry free as you no need to worry about engine, gearbox and etc. Tucson only aslo 5year warrant but 300000km only." although is very hard to reach 300,000km but if there got give unlimited would be nicer"

2.Design- Compare with tucson i still prefer sportage since the body look is much muscle then tucson. And dont forget the designer of sportage is audi designer.

3.Space- I have compare both car still sportage look a but bigger then tucson.

4.Rim: 18inch rim look nicer but the bad thing is when you change tyre then you will feel then pain cause price is much more expensive

5.Interior - My person opinion sportage interior is nicer then tucson but no hard feeling this is my opinion.

Dislike:
1.Services:- since many people complaint about the kia services is not that good.

2.Resale value- not good as compare with japanese car but this will not long term cause now korean car is coming up fast!

3.interior - is good but too much hard plastic but not much complaint because of this target price!


Remark: This is my personal opinion so pls dont have hard feeling for those like tucson .

thats is the main thing my wife complain about the tucson, like proton wira must fold manually

with a new car every time you go to the shopping complexes, we tend to fold in our mirrors just in case kind scratch
so the fold in is very important
*
If am not mistaken for sportage we need to press the switch in the door panel to fold the mirror! it will not fold itself if we lock the car! but is good aslo cause our folding mirror motor will last longer
