magnetec is castrol lah hallo

Forte 1.6 SX and 2.0 how much?
What is the int rates now?

Dun worry la bro, since the authorized dealer said ok then ok lo
Becoz I was also changed to caltex 5w40 for my 20k service and I found the performance was better than petronas a lot.
Better throttle response even thought the oil is thicker than petronas, it is better for my car becoz I used to rev to 5-6k of rpm
Petronas sucks!

How much? -Kindly read the first post on the very first page of this thread.

Interest Rates? -Not sure as of now for Forte. But last month, during my visit to Ford, the interest rate (if my memory still serves me well) is 2.8 (9 years) for Fiesta

I just book 1.6sx last week and manage to get 2.6 for 9 years.

I think Kia recommends 30 weight oil right?

hahaha... lupa laaa... nama dekat2 sama... caltex castrol...

if thicker, engine will be more heavier although fully syn ?

yup 10w-30... but this caltex 10w-30 is mineral kan...?

want to service my car at one of dealer here at kulim...40km service..guess what...rm8xx for 40km service
end up service at my wife hometown at SP...only rm47x

If last year service pricing is still applicable, 40k km service should be less than RM600. RM8xx is for 60k km service due to replacement of V-ribbed belt. I did my 40k km service at the end of last year, ending up paying only RM48x (2.0SX) coz i didnot change the air filter (using the easy to clean stainless steel Simota air filter) & also topping up just 0.5L of coolant & brake fluid instead of 1L each.

If the dealer charge u RM8xx for the 40k km service, i believe they wanna replace/change the unnecessary items.

it's always bad to experience stupid service attitude... bring back the leftover in the bottle and question her la.. screw her up

I've got 2010 Forte SX. Having an issue where my driver seat got sound, kiyook..kiyoook sound from the metals. Would this be covered as warranty ?

Same chassis as the MD Elantra. No surprise that the stance of the car is similar but I don't think the front looks that nice compared to the Elantra. Better wait for the unveiled car before making further judgment

kalau sape2 yang da abis warranty tu, if change engine oil outside..recommended still 10w-30 is it?

but available only syntium 3000 5w-40..or better go any authorized dealer/sc to get the 10w-30 spec oil?

naza oil 10w-30 also got..but need to go to naza sc..

Any thought by when malaysia will have Forte Hybrid?
My Webpage
(source from net)

Seem the service cost is vary and not standard, I saw 2 set of price posted by MyForte Club member in facebook. I shared here for your perusal.

which SC(s) are they?

Not sure, they not stated in their post.

I'm not sure regarding service price standardization among NazaKia SC/Authorized SC, but as far as i remember, it follows the second table (below)..at least for me

now the 1st table become standard... latest my visit to selayang SC early this mth, also saw 1st table on their wall...
but its too general, they need to breakdown the details...
we need to know why there's RM200 additional charges so we can argue with them...

hi there..

i'm new owner of forte (clear white) and need to do 1st service..
anybody has been to kia red cube PJ for servicing? is it OK?
