As posted many time before..even luxury cars got this foggy (condensation) issue..posted also many proven pics. I'm calling it an issue coz it's not a problem after all in anyway...

Added on May 15, 2012, 6:09 pmIt somehow happen to me also last time..but it's the other way round than yours. Driver's side aircond vents produce colder air if compared to the passenger's side. Last time bro taipan did posted on how to reset the aircond system if this sort of behavior happen, but i forgot already. It was posted long time ago

at the very first front page post, under maintenance table.

what if all those non KIA cars opt for fully synth?

coz ive done this in my previous BLM, perfectly allowed plus if u are smart, u can strike out some small2 items coz it is obviously replaced too often already.

what is the source of this maintenance summary? to me, it is soooo KIA biased. haha

normal condensation only..even my saga blm fog lamp got this problem..no biggie and for mine it goes away after 1-2 days (or earlier)..so i din really care to notice really..haha..after a while you'll get used to it especially if u own other cars before

Is it true that forte ex does have temp gauge ?
Then how to take any precaution to know when have an overheated engine ?

Hi there,
Is there anyone here having the 1.6SX 2012 Model that comes with DVD/GPS system?

Does the "pulling-left" and rattling dash-board sound and also squeeky masuk-angin sound from door PROBLEMSSS still exist?

Also, if change tyre below 1000km, warranty void for suspension? What about cases on above 1000km, change tyre n no change rim case OR change rim n tyre? Will Naza void thr warranty?

If pull-left problem happen and go 3rd party change chamber nut, warranty void ah for suspension and "car-leg" (don't know call what in Eng)

=)

It is not KIA biased. Kindly accept that this is a fact. Most Malaysian mentality is still believe that KIA cars is expensive to maintain. It might be true for previous gen of KIA cars, but not the current gen of KIA cars. For Forte (4-speed) maintenance price summary, i got it from the NazaKia SC itself. For the other cars maintenance price summary, i obtained it from their respective official website as at that time (March last year if i'm not mistaken)

As I remember correctly, 0830 to 1700, Mondays to Fridays, 0830 to 1230 for Saturday for most SCs (some SCs open full day on Sats). Public holiday and Sundays closed

seconded his 3rd question. I plan to change tyres right after I got the car. Will my action void the warranty?

This table is applicable to the 4-speed Forte. I already summarize this in the maintenance table pricing on the first post of this thread. 6-speed Forte got a bit higher pricing scheme due to the fully syn ATF. Anyway..thanks for your contribution

that is for 4 speed... 6 speed price i think MFC FB already update (by mr arul) RM 520 @ 30k service and RM 793 @ 40k service (both 1.6 + 2.0 6 speed)

ohh ic
i was told the price is about the same, maybe few ringgit different
so i tot itz the updated prices for 6 speeder as he sold a 6 speed to me mah...
now i think he is a lousy sa...haha

Totally Agree.

Same case for me. If auto set to low blower speed, then the driver side will be colder than the passenger side. Asked Kinrara SC they said its normal because of the location of the compressor. Somehow i doubt that

really funny these fella's. i think they are trying to take us for a ride. On my side my SC told me that when i complain this issue my driver side blower is less than the passenger side and also emitting warm air instead of cold air. they told me the reason the aircond is not as powerful on the driver side is due to the blower is located at the passenger's side. ( which i think its total bullshit, most cars i think the blowers are located at the passenger side and i dont seem to have this problem with my previous car which the blower is located on the bottom left). as for the cooling problem they have still yet to solve and i am heading over this saturday to solve this 1 and for all (hopefully!!)

Yes somehow i doubt their explanation, though kinrara SC seems to be quite reputable mine not as irritating as yours tho.

Please share your result here after you head to SC
