guys,
i've owned a forte for about 4 months already, however I've noticed that the low end torque is a bit weak, possibly due to the weight of the car. Perhaps if anyone could kindly recommend something that could improve the lower end acceleration in the car? Performance chips? Air intake? Idk. Im kinda new to modding so I'd like some precious input. Thanks

QUOTE(forter @ Apr 7 2012, 07:09 AM) 1. As i remember..beside 6 speed...there are few features added such as auto fold side mirror,rear view camera,bluetooth and paddle shift. 2. I can say there are no big different for the fuel consumption and driving experience between these 2 version...maby slightly advantage for 6 speeder on the highway. 3. Most of the 2010 forte (maby all..im not sure)...are CBU from korea...if you make some researh about feedback from owners...there are not much complain especially for the quality issue...mine for example....my car really solid and tip top condition from day 1...i never encountered any problem like dashboard rattling sound or any annoying sound...my only minor problem so far is brake switch...but after i change it...problem solve. And for the 6 speeder..there are got some complain for the quality issue...but i think its just for minor issue maybe bcoz its CKD in msia. 4. I think most of the 4 speed forte only got 2 years warranty...but some of the owner like me had paid certain amount to get extended warranty for another 3 years with unlimited milage...and yes its can transfer to the new owner...so this is the important part if u want to look for used forte....but now all new forte come with 5 years warranty. Point no. 3 : very much agreed  Added on April 8, 2012, 8:10 amQUOTE(HKNP @ Apr 7 2012, 02:27 PM) Dang My Antenna is stolen... anyone here knows how much it cost? Any replacement unit out there..

Referring back to point 3 above, the clock unit on the dashboard was making rattling noises, even on the slightest un-evenness of the road. Apparently one of the brackets were not installed properly, but the sc has since rectified it. Will have to check whether the noise comes up again on the rougher roads when I go back to hometown next.
Anyone else encountered this issue before?
