QUOTE(stevenc68 @ May 13 2013, 05:51 PM) Hi fellow fortezens, maybe change the carbon filter, if the air isn't cool, refill the gasJust wondering whether anyone service their air con before. Do we need to service it? So far have not done anything to the air con. Already 20K and coming to 1 year driving. I doubt the SC check the air con. |

QUOTE(Sean Phang @ May 13 2013, 03:17 PM) Hey guys, i've been driving my Forte 1.6SX for only a month. Everything is fine and good. No rattling sound, no pull-left symptoms but only one issue i facing, the Air-Cond!! mostly the fan faulty, happened on my old carThroughout the month, i experienced 4 times of the following condition: While i was driving, i switched my 'air-cond' to 'ON', fan speed 2, 20 degree celcius and set to internal-circulating air mode. The problem is the air blown was hot, and it was like air from the outside. I tot i set the mode to 'external' mode (Greenlight) but no, everything was in proper but how come its hot? After probably 20mins with that situation, it suddenly turns to cold~~(as though i need to accelerate to certain speed on the road only it turns cold) I've told the SC in BBK-Klang to check (under my 1st 1k service), but they said everything is ok, compressor, fan, refrigerant etc.. all in good condition!! Anyone experiencing the same problem?!? i really wanna know wat is the problem..hope u guys can help.... TQ~!! |

QUOTE(lingleeyen @ May 13 2013, 10:52 PM) Might also be the new engine oil. New oil is thicker hence heavier feel. At least I feel that way la. After you are used to it for 2 days, you will forget how it was. Heavier but you can feel the engine accelerate smoother. one of my friend suggested Caltex, i just refilled full tank like few days ago, already 11xkm so far, i feel power is lower compare to bhp which i used previously, need to press harder to accelerate, dunno is placebo or what, will finish the tank and see how, and yeah definitely no petronas and petron for me too For smoother acceleration, try BHP. But I feel that BHP is not giving the instant power like Petron. Heck. No Petron, no Petronas. I rather go to Shell.p |

Thinking to get either one as my car.. my opinionforte 1.6sx rm85xxx -1.6L with 6 speeds auto with +/- and paddle shifter -reverse camera with the screen on the rear mirror -built in gps and navigation -push start/stop engine button -DRL (above are what the kor have but jap don't) vios 1.5G rm87xxx -1.5L 4 speeds auto WITHOUT paddle shifter or +/- -na -na -na -na city 1.5S rm85xxx -1.5L 5 speeds auto WITHOUT paddle shifter or +/- -na -na -na -na **prices are before discount** service and maintenance cost are roughly the same, around rm200 for authorized sc, fc surely cannot beat vios, forte is heavier by around 300kg iinm coz it's full loaded with features and gadgets |
