just got my 2013's 1.6SX Titanium Silver on 12012013 from 070. already clocked around 465km so far. always maintaining < 3000rpm. currently got 7.7l/100km. the fastest speed i have drove only 125km/h at Lebuhraya Pantai Timur. very stable on highway. very confident in cornering at Karak Highway. really can feel the stock tyres 'menggigit jalan' brows.gif the only draw back is the sound from stock tyres.

NO rattling dashboard sound. NO sound from either front doors. NO pulling left or right. so far so good icon_rolleyes.gif

you dont stop start at traffic light or junction frequently lah .. try get into city and stop start manytimes .... you can easily achieve 10-12L/100KM .. heeeheeeheee. drool.gif



yes. The stock tyres and rim is really suck... Very dissapointed. You can see we all here discuss a lot here.

When friends found 1.6 cc but pasang with 17" rim, one word they give to me "Siao" ..... Lagi teruk give the paliah tyres.

Give smaller rim with better quality tyre.. then will be perfect.

how bad of the stock rim? i thought only tyre paliah??

what your recommend tyre for forte 2.0 then? and rim also?
*
Forte 2.0 is ok lah. Poweful engine. Just change your tyre will be good enough. maybe Michelin Primary PLC, Yokohama Advan DB v551, will be good. You better go fast fast now. if not, they trade in your stock tyre very low price.

Don't mind me to correct you.. I really feel geram when people referring on vehicle engine capacity 1.6 litre as 1.6cc..
either you should mention 1.6 litre.. or 1,600cc..

can the heater be disable internally ? What is one side is blowing cold and another side is blowing warm intermitently  ?

Same case to me. I think this happens to every forte. Need to adjust below 24 or 23 to make both cold.

1 side hot and 1 side cold is designed to balance the temperature. I guess.

so far havent try long distance yet.....but average jam n around the city 350-400km

Change to 17" ultralight rim. I think at most will have 7kg per rim. compare to stock rim 10.6kg (Thanks to kidmad provides accurate stock rim weight).

Change to good LRR tyre - Michelin Primary LC or Yokohama Advan DB v551. those are 'GO GREEN' tyres means save fuel.

Also try 5W20 engine oil. (some people said less protection because too light. Maybe the different is 750k and 700k mileage. Who care!)

I am sure you will get better FC.

Then you have to shift your gear to R and shoot him back with your REVERSE HIGH BEAM headlight. Sure the BLM will lari .. not only BLM give way but all the cars .... rclxms.gif

myvi is stable if you carry 200kg passengers. Otherwise it will start floating from 110km/h.

Hey guys... I currently searching for my first car. As a person with RM 3k salary, RM 80k (the lowest spec) for a car are really a big amount for me. This car will be a family car and I have no intention to sell and buy. Just drive as long as I can.

So, I want to ask Forte owner at Miri and Kuching, how is the after sale service for Forte? 5 years unlimited warranty (T&C) are really attractive and sound promising.

I know this car have a place at West Malaysia but I'm not sure how Forte perform at East Malaysia and I wish someone could share with me their experience with me. And oh yeah, how much is your interest rate and your deposit with monthly payment.
*
Oh You are the TS choosing Almera, Vios and Forte?

As I told you, first thing when you get Forte, sell and change the Tyre and Rim. I heard can trade in RM1500. Then get lighter rim and good tyre probably.

This car is heavy and stable. That's why high FC. Cannot fight with Vios or Almera both are lighter about 1 tonne. This car 1.3 tonne with extra 300kg.

Most problem is left pull, and rattling sound. Not everyone kena. but can be fixed.

left 1.7k , petrol = 300-400 , hp = 50-100 , rental ? parents ? eat ?

I heard now got 1.68% loan interest right? That is really worth to get. I think the most important is your age. If you are 20-25 yrs old and want to buy, then go ahead. You will get increment and cover for loan.

If you are 40yrs old already. Then think twice.

Hmmm... Yup, you are right abiut budget etc. Might buy myself a cheap but reliable car first, since I need to further to degree and thinking of buying a house. Bright advice by you mate...
Not me, I just TT (Tumpang Thread). I'm looking for a car with big space. Vios are great but the rear seat are too small even I'm with 1.63m height feel that the car are smaller than Myvi. While Almera satisfy me the most in B segment but the spec, hmmm... Anyway, better try to avoid other car as this is Forte thread. Don't want to be bashed. biggrin.gif Thanks guys...

Hope you will make a right choice. Not necessary to choose Forte. It is really enjoy when you travel long distance. I travel 70km per day. That's why I choose this. If you travel short distance, ... stop and start frequently in City, then it is too burden to drive 1.3 tonne car on the road. Not suitable for city drive.

Good luck! Hope will help....

Why not you ask your SA settle this for you? Normally the SA will do for buyer. If you want to get, I suggest you get the original KIA logo. Dont get kumloong logo.
