I thought the red light was the transmit indicator. Mine lights up when i press any buttons as well.

But why red light? I thought it suppose to be yellow light? Could it be my car is not around here?

White is most difficult to maintain. Requires daily washing and since u wash too often the paint wont last and it will still turn yellowish over the years. You have to do a coating e.g Sierra Glow.

Ya. This is what happen to me. Everytime after rain go back home i have to wipe it with cloth. Of cos not using soap just plain water. My dad always say " Cheh new car, see how long you can maintain this". And need to polish few times a year. I had a bro work at a famous car wash in malaysia so I can get free polish thats why I never worried... tongue.gif

But white car really more sui leh. Look around you, damm lots of white car.

Don't know wor my bro is an expert here so shud be ok ba. What I mean few time is like 3-4x not 8-9x.


Added on September 5, 2012, 6:34 pmI'm back with some new statistic. This time result is really unbelievable and I add in Altis as well.

Altis vs Civic vs Forte

The result was 10 / 11 / 11

Believe or not? shocking.gif

Recently I really see lots of forte coming out since Raya.

hey guys,
will the forte compressor in idle stage if we set our air cond temp higher than outside temp; let's say 26C inside but outside is 24C (in the morning or raining day)?

agree and recently listen to radio, the DJ said white color has became one of the popular color compare with 10-20 years ago. one of the contributor is apple coz ppl tend to feel white color is much classy... lolx.

bro, any recommended good ph neutral shampoo?

Ya was going to ask too since his shampoo so good. Actually what I hate was those dirt that bounce up from floor and next to ur tyre there's even a lot during raining days. That's why I will wipe it with plain water. If this shampoo can get rid of this I think I can wash car one week once. Save lots of my time... tongue.gif

Removes means when you saw those tar then apply on the area to remove it or after wash with this product those tar wont stick on car? Sorry very noob on this. I rely my bro to take care for me actually. He works at Cars International.

I read somewhere that we can modify the boot of our car so that when we open it using remote the boot will be fully lifted. Can anyone tell me how to do it? Can't find the original link.

P/S: I'm looking for stock 17" forte rims. Anyone want to sell theirs?

When I compare with CAMRY, you asking compare with MANY CAMRY... and when I do that, you will tell me compare with ACCORD / TEANA.. smile.gif Please take note those car are higher rank than Forte and if the FC same as them, then means high.

Maybe you are not worry much about FC because you dont travel long distance with spending RM100-200 on fuel. For those spend more than RM500 per month on fuel will feel the pain. Furthermore if fuel price increased, then will be trouble.

We cannot hold the mindset asking people go for other choice if dont like. It just like you walk into KFC, you complain KFC not tasting good, and then the KFC stuff telling you 'If you dont like go for nasi lemak'. We have to get things improved. Friend, there are many bigger cars having better FC than this. This is the fact. SA and SC admit that already. smile.gif

Chilled out bro. Everyone love our Forte. Anyway I dont see any big difference between 10 or 11 / 100km. I used to look at the instant bar and maintain at between 10L but end up ma get extra 20-30km. Not so obvious. Now I dont care anytime wanna rush just step the pedal and what I've got was 10.5L/100 and 20km lesser only....
So far I can get around 450KM full tank with ODO <100

Bro, how u achieve 450km full tank with ODO <100 with tekan minyak as u wish? I wish I can achieve that. So far I'm getting only about 400 - 420km and DTE is < 50km.

What fuel u use? Or maybe my car still not break in yet. Less 5K mileage.
*
I mean tekan as u wish of cos need to be a bit smooth tekan la. Dont go tekan kejap lepas kejap then tekan again. What i mean is during the pickup time. I'm using Esso Ron95. Are you using Shell? I heard after 10k service it will be even better. Now I'm only 3.7k mileage.

Cost for owning a forte besides from FC there's another one more thing need to consider, Summons...

My first summons after 1.5 mth usage Susah sampai.... cry.gif
My right foot haven't train well from maintaining at 90 or 110km at highway. Always accidentally press until 140km or at least 120 most of the time. Hopefully no more coming...

U wanna know the truth? Last time when my car is still new (about 2 & a half year ago), i also got about the same figure when filling up a full tank of fuel. It will go up (the DTE figure) as the car mileage going up. If i still remember correctly, whether u believe this or not, my DTE figure now shows 595km when i filled up full tank about 2 weeks ago brows.gif

Wish I can get that DTE soonest as I'm still still at 470+.

Just sent to car to pasang mud guard to reduce wheel water splash. The boss explained many thing to me and looks like many things need to be fixed to make the car perfect.

Also notice this round full tank fuel consumption is higher. Around 9.8L/100km compare to last tank 9.5L/100km - Driver speed average 27km/h (stucked everywhere).. This is expected because I vroom when necessary.

Also, I just pump Caltex ron95 and want to see how it perform.
I felt like the car is quite heavy, so I pumped 230 psi for front wheel and 220 psi for rear wheel. And feel like very light now smile.gif I hope this is correct and no harm to my car. Please advice.

Mud guard is it those cover that attach behind the tyre? I was thinking to install those but looks ugly to my white forte wor. What color you install? Can show picture?
