hallo all!
I'm experiencing something weird with my A/C. Say i set the temp to 25c and didnt run A/C on auto mode since i hate air from outside coming in. I noticed the A/C at front leg room not so cool as the main outlet. infact it feel bit warm. When i reduce the temp, i can feel bit cool down there but not for long.
Anyone having the same problem?? is it normal?

you were saying you're using 25°C A/C with cabin air recycling mode, air blowing body + leg mode ?

air blowing to the leg feel bit warm. shouldn't it be the same as air blowing to body? hmm.gif

.. 25C is about the same with room temperature.. lower down the temperature la if you want cold air.

I am not technician, but I can describe to you why is that..
25-26°C is consider room temperature.. therefore, if you are on leg blowing mode,
the A/C auto climate system will adjust to blow abit warm air to your feet so you could feel
more comfortable instead blowing warm air to your face and body which can make your body
feel stuffy.. your case is obvious when outside temperature at 25-26°C early in the morning or
rainy weather..

theoretically, in South Korea winter chilly weather, people would set the leg blowing mode to
MAX heater first when get inside the car to heat up the chilling legs.. when your feet is warm, automatically
your body feel comfortable and body won't shivering..

getting in the car during winter weather -10°C its not ideal to straight hot air to the cold face.. will
catch flu and sick easily.. that's what my UK and South Korean friends advised me..

in conclusion, Forte Auto Climate A/C system adjust to the cabin set temperature while keeping occupants
as comfy as possible inside..
*
same thing if i put 20c also kuah..
the problem is, leg air blowing are cold when i turn on A/C. only after few minutes it will get warmer. so i think the theory about heating up the chilling legs is not very accurate for my situation here. if my legs are really cold when i get inside car then i turn A/C and it starts to blow cool air for the first few minutes my legs will shiver man.
its like terbalik la for my A/C. suppose it will warm your legs and then starts to adjust according to whole cabin's temp.. right? hmm.gif

that's the case i mentioned about winter season temp set at 28C above.. try hit the 'auto' button and max the temperature.. it will blow only leg full blast with heat air..

in Malaysia.. try set temp to 20°C at all times for few days and observe.. if after awhile vents at the leg area begin to blow warm air at 20°C set temp still.. bring your car to SC to inspect your A/C system..

yeah. thinking to ask SC during my 1k service. donno they will layan my problem o not. rolleyes.gif

to all forte user, need some advices here
I am planning to get a new Forte , but unsure whether i should go for 1.6 or 2.0
so would like to ask all the Sifu here for some advices:

How much difference between the FC for 1.6SX and 2.0
(1 full tank can go how many km for both city& highway)??

i am looking for a comfort& quite drive, not for sport and speed.
the reason i prefer for 2.0 is it has Auto-Cruise ( I travel a lot on highway).
but i worry 2.0 FC will be very high compare to 1.6SX
for normal use to work and some long distance travel during holiday(KL- Johor), 1.6 enough?
will 1.6 be under power?

After i got the car, what should i do to increase the performance and FC?
should i terus go nearby shop to change my tyre/ rims?

any forte users here know Kia Kepong Branch? is it good?
I actually went to Selayang Kia SC, meet an SA, he gave me better offer(Extra 1k discount) but i need to get my car somewhere in Kepong instead of from the Selayang Kia SC, feel weird for that. Is it safe to buy like this?

Thank you for your advices

Where is your location?. You can try to check with KIA shah alam. SRI MS sdn bhd (worldwide business park. nearby bulatan kayangan. beside federal hiway. not glenmerie one).
I get mine from there. SA very easy to nego. not pushy even near end of year. means tak kejar sales saje. Can help to find best loan offer for you. in case u dont like the interest rate for bank. Offers and freebies oso not bad.

- 3M tinted (5 yeasrs warranty). siap pasang. no voucher and go kedai sendiri then kena ketuk like shiss.
- MOBIS door visor. original

You sure from exhaust but not from all wheel disc brakes.. ?
Supposingly most new cars below 1k km mileage with EBD and BA has
hangus smell from the brakes when you use your brakes kinda aggresively..

It happened on my 2003 swift, 2009 vios.. but 2004 waja don't have hangus smell when new..
Vios special a bit.. got very the hangus smell from engine bay when I rev more than 3krpm before 1k km..

My friend's new Persona B-Line dun have hangus smell also.. haha
*
Agree. Because brake pad still new. It smell hangus like u lupa to release handbrake.

I'm so free today... Thinking of changing my no plate to crystal type... Anyone know where boleh buat???

Location?
I buat in shah alam. Crystal number+carbon fibre plate front and back+frame with "kia the power to surprise". Cost me about rm100.

I survey one shop in uptown damansara the price is rm120 without frame. Need to add another 25 for the frame only. So diff location might charge diff price. No need to go to high end shop. Material used still the same. Just check the quality of workmanship

vv001, You misunderstand already.

I just get to know Forte has few good features since 2013. Here they are:-

First, new version of Forte 2013 has milk bottle warmer. Beside your handbrake.

2nd, Forte also have sound feature to alert driver when drive on bumpy road. That is called Rattling Sound Alert System.

3rd, Auto safest change lane system. The Forte will automatically left pull your car to the left lane when you didnt hold your steering. Left lane has been proven as most safest lane and you can drive slowly without horn by others.
Motorman knows about this. Many buyers misunderstand and keep asking SC fix for them. Please clarify to them. icon_idea.gif

FOR THE WIN!!.
