they said wanna claim for the alignment ma.. what to do.
anyway after the alignment service, no more pull left issue although previously it was just a very minor pull left, not really noticeable. since it is FOC then just request them to do saja.
by the way, this morning tried 160km/h and the RPM is about 5K. Is this standard? what is the top speed we can go with forte 1.6sx before hit the red line of the RPM?
*
I reached 175km/h before...but didn't focus on RPM.....maybe next time i try and let u know.... biggrin.gif

I want to know, anybody here 1.6sx break 195km/h before? Is the steering vibrate strongly?

Hi, anybody have this kind experience or not.

1 month ago, i drive my car and break 180km/h, after this i found that my FC more better. B4, a full tank roughly give me 440 ~ 450km (90% city drive), recently this 2 times pump, it can give me around 470 ~ 480km (oso 90% city drive).

steering still stable?how's the sound(engine/outside/tyre), i think sure dam loud rite ?

Bro, surprisingly the steering still stable (that's y i said the car still can go somemore tongue.gif ), but noise level really bad, i try to off the radio, u will feel aeroplane beside you biggrin.gif . And luckily Forte come with "radio sound increase when you on high speed" (dun know what is called oledi) , it would help to reduce at least 70% of the noise.

I am think to do the sound proof, any taikor here have good contact....Tx.

I purchased mine when I got my car. But not mistaken, now most SAs give free BK.
From my understanding, PU is very durable, but requires great skills to get good paintwork on the BK. It is also bulkier.
ABS is lighter and has a nicer mold I feel. And dun have to worry bout paintwork because the material can allow paint to stick to it nicely. But very costly.. and if you hit hard, it WILL break!

I just did my alignment and balancing at Sunway area. Definitely fixed my slight pull left issue with a very high cost  rclxub.gif RM91 to be exact. But all I can say is, the people at that workshop damn professional and I can be assured my car is nicely taken care of  thumbup.gif Before touch your car, the mechanic will wash his hands thoroughly. EVERY SINGLE TIME!  icon_rolleyes.gif And before handover car to you, boss will QC the mechanic's work before hand over the car to you... Now thats what I call professional!  biggrin.gif

Where you do your alignment.....any contact......my pull left more serious now.......

my 1 month plus Forte starts having the rattling sound from the dashboard and driver’s side door (didn’t expect the problem to be this soon). i’ve read somewhere that Kinrara SC can fix this problem (anyone concur with this?) cannot tahan with the sound anymore.

secondly, i'm planning to change my DVD HU to another brand (don’t really like the stock UI and the reception is quite bad). i understand that this will only void my HU warranty right?

Go to Kinrara SC....i settle my Driver side door rattling sound less than 2 hours.

For dashboard sound....i hv a bit oni....not intend go to fixed...because scare to open the whole dashboard.
