hi fortezens..

going to get my 1.6sx very soon.. this coming Wed most probably.. one question to ask...

Will the ipod/iphone cable be provided with the car? or we need to get it from somewhere else?

i saw one on ebay and it's quite cheap.. going to buy it if it is not provided with the car...

thanks..

bro kcsaw,

thanks for the reply... can't contain my excitement any longer..

Brilliant!

Hi Fortezens..

Just got my 1.6SX White today... can confirm that infamous pull left problem still exist.. sigh.. but overall.. satisfied...

In my case (as I'm sure like most cases for Forte's pull left issue), it is sort of like misalignment. Happens every time I let go of the steering wheel at any speed. the car will veer to the left. Not abruptly but easily noticeable. Other fortezens have solved this issue by doing the alignment. If that doesn't really solve the pull left issue than the chamber nut needs to be replaced. Hopefully mine won't have to go that far.

As for your 2nd question, I only collected my car yesterday.. dare not go beyond 100km/h before my 1st 1k service so no noise issue as yet. By noise, do u mean wind noise? Some fortezens do have issue with this. the windscreen is not properly sealed. One fortezen has solved her issue by applying some special glue to the affected area.

Added on July 12, 2012, 10:41 amThanks for the info. will do just that but i was told need to complain within three days not before mileage reach 2K. the SA must have her facts wrong then. by the way, did u have issue with the pull left? only realignment done or was the chamber nut replaced? thanks again.

bro.. 1.6 or 2.0?

Hi fortezens,

Wanna ask. I know some fortes have this buzzing sound near the driver's seat (somewhere around the door and the seat belt adjuster) issue. Just got my forte 2 days ago n already i can hear the annoying sound.

Did any of u manage to make the sound disappear? Hate bringing it to SC. Afraid that they might make matters worse. Rather diy. Thanks.

this one is also a looker

Available here on ebay.com

With the 5year unlimited warranty one not need to worry too much about repairs/spareparts... Opted for a 7 year repayment (only plan to keep it that long) so another 2 extra years without warranty.. Hopefully luck is on my side..

Can u comment the warranty? AFAIK the warranty (at least for the wheels/tires) will be void. Did u have a discussion with SC prior changing the rims? interested in downgrading also.. thanks..

that would be 65k... with a rebate of 3k on the downpayment.. if u opted for the BK, u'll get 1.5k rebate instead. so instead of paying 6.5k for the d/payment, u only need to pay only 3.5k. want BK? need to pay only 4k.

Contact/pm me if u want to go to the showroom so that we can share the 'incentive' given by SA. it's a win-win.

May I know what size is the Lenso ES6 rim? i thought it was 16".

OIC.. but more light weight.. sure best..

did u weigh d lenso es6 rims? stock rim is at 11kg per piece. of course, lighter means better for acceleration and FC.

Questions regarding the touch HU.

Senario
1. Connect iphone via cable and listen to songs. No problem.
2. Connect iphone via bluetooth to make and receive calls. No problem.
3. Connect iphone simultaneously via cable and bluetooth. PROBLEM! Can't listen to songs but can make and receive calls.

Any fortezens experience no.3?

Thought so.. looks like have to go ipod hunting.. Thanks..

Normal. Coming from aircond. Both my city and civic had this including the forte. As do most cars i think.

Got mine exactly after a week. AFAIK no way to bypass the SA. just be patient

Any pps service in kedah or penang? Do share. Would like to pps my white forte.
