Added on May 17, 2012, 4:02 pmYess..u r rite K5WHITE..the shop was introduced to me by Selangor Forte club member..they already do survey regarding exhaust shop and they found this shop is one of the best in term of this exhaust thing with reasonable price..it cost me total RM680

Muffler+piping+labour charge: RM 400
Exhaust tip: RM 75 each x 4= RM300
Discount RM 20

if u want other tip design also got..they also do customize extractor and decat

So far..i noticed the sound increased a bit especially during hard pressing (but sportier sound)..but during static or cruising its almost negligible
In term of performance the pickup is almost about the same..
But i'm more happy regarding the cosmetic appearance

Plan to get 3M for whole glasses. Hopefully will get a good bargain. My Car is ready but waiting for WWU plate.. may next weekk...

Bro your car ada gaya!!!

how abt the diffuser (the black colour bodykit) ?? tot u said it was changed to allow left/right double exhaust tip?
and where is the shop? name?

i'm drooling lioaw

went for 1st 1k service at the Kinrara service center. took almost 3 hours for them to do the service. i do complain about the car alignmnet and stearing vibration. the tech took my car for a drive and believe took almost 20 min to come back (maybe he enjoy driving k5) . they told me need to so alignment and balancing. FOC for bellow 2000km but they dont have the facilities to do in kinrara service center. they need to bring the car to the 3rd party to do it. unfortunetly i cant wait any more so, plan to go this weeked to do the alignment and balancing. just not happy that it took almost 3 hour to do a simple normal service. the good thing is , the service guy is very polite and say sorry for he delay since they have lot of car to handly that day. he charge me RM23+ . for the 1st service. i believe K5 required 4.2 L oil, accoring to the service center, i need to purchase 5L and they will retun back the 0.8L to me so i can use it during the next service,but i am lucky enough that they top up me 0.2L FOC for this time.


yesterday try to push the car to the limit, able to reach 180km/h but not dare to push more hard since start smell like rubber burn smell from aircon, the smell is gone in few sec later on. need to go and check with the service center this week about that also.

eh?? the diffuser is the black thing? LOL sorry i'm very noob in car stuff..i thought balang=diffuser..hahahaha..the diffuser of course have to potong for another exhaust to come out..initially i thought it will be ugly, but luckly the guy manage to cut it accordingly..so the difference is not that noticeable..but of course not 100% the same la..maybe like 95% almost the same..but i can say its almost negligible..unless u r OCD kiasu kind of guy..haha..i think if u want to make it more neat, can buy this diffuser from ebay:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/KIA-2011-2012-All-...=item1c1f8887ab

yeah..i saw them in website before oso...

care to share the shop name and location?

2 single oval shape exhaust tip definitely lose to 2 double round exhaust tip...

shop name: KAKI EXHAUST
Address: 2, Jalan SR 3/3, Taman Serdang Raya, Seksyen 3, Serdang Raya

if want to come make appointment with this guy first: Ah Yap(0172527117)

Weekend usually it will be full if u come walk in..according to the Forte guy early morning weekend few cars will already come and park infront of the shop

Its not so hot after installing. Ori sunroof is oredi tinted but i wanted to cut the heat more rather than sun light. Yes there is a difference. Glass feels warm only. Outside temp 34deg.

ohh...thanks...kaki exhaust oso have branch in shah alam, btw...

wonder KIA will be voiding the warranty bo?

i just dont care..cannot tahan liou..5 years i'll die waiting..hahahha
the same goes to who want to put front bumper sensor and extra security system like cobra..those things you do the KIA will say void warranty also

Heres some interesting sites on toys to dress up our K5.

Korean Auto Imports

SupeRich Motors

KSpec Performance

anyone know what is the documented Fuel consumption, litres/100 km** on KIA website or brochures? checked other car brands and they have listed it but dont see it on K5.

who interested to buy a K5~ penang area~
kindly PM me i will giv the best offer

Yest I saw a white K5 behind me with a PG no plate. So nice. Now I don't know whether to get the white or silver

Eh? No more 508?

This is the problem which i brought up before which i found in a number of test drive cars. But this is the first time im hearing bout the burnt rubber smell in the car cabin. Best to get it checked out.

Added on May 18, 2012, 9:47 amI changed the front fog lamp bulbs to 88W white/blue bulbs. Original bumbs were 50W. But i found that the front bulb cover (not the casing) melted. Took back to Kia and they agreed to replace both sets of fog lamps FOC. Seems that a previous customer also had the same 'melting' problem but with the original bulbs.

For your info, the cost of 1 fog lamp set is RM210 so both would cost approx RM 420 not inclusive labor and taxes. Not cheap.

Added on May 18, 2012, 9:50 amIsnt the sunroof already heavily tinted? Why is the sunroof more important?

it is not expensive ! Honda FD2 civic current version's ori foglamp cost rm750 one set(2pcs). Mine kena batu broken. In the end, found taiwan made costs rm130 per piece

White requires constant maintenance and washing. Silver even if its dirty it isnt noticeable.
