my lovely forte kena hit by neighbor on last Saturday, causing dents at fender and front passenger door around 3-4 50cents coin size; luckily no paint drop.

What will be the costs to repair the dent?

Anyone did autofoam on their forte before? Any reviews?

better away for it. as if not mistaken it will void the insurance when you want to claim for it after accident. because those foam will make it hard to repair.

yesterday when I fetched my friend go to makan breakfast (curi tulang coz we still need to work during raya), he suddenly said how come my forte gear shifting is so smooth. he is a bit surprise and i think it is from the bottom of his heart coz he always LCLY so a bit out of expectation when he said so.

(BTW, he is driving previous CITY and Exora bold which are equipped with CVT gear box).

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)?

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.

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.

i got a 3 months old white forte as well.. smile.gif
