For nicer look on the car , plans to put on HID

Bro Iz, I need to ask you something about cruise control.

I was travelling at 110km/h with cruise control on. At a certain point from Subang to 1U, I went through a one line small bump at 110km/h. It is a result of the metal road joint extruded out. Highway PIC try to cover with bits of cncrete.

Anyway, the car felt lifted a moment. And when I am back on the road, the cruise control cancelled. I swear that I did not step on brake, nor I press anything to cancel the cruise. Right hand on steering, Left hand on the lap, right leg on the car mat.

Have you experienced anything like this before?

I believe the ESC or specifically the Traction Control did its job there to save the car (& u for sure). When the car lift up (front lift), the front tires is on the air & rotate freely. When the ESC/TC sensors detects that the tires is rotating freely out of grip, the ECU rev down the engine (reducing engine torque) & turn off the cruise control to avoid mishap. This might also happen when u suddenly accelerate hard on a slippery or sandy road (tire will slip & out of grip due to extra torque). Could u imagine this..if let say your car lifted in the air & the car did not turn off the cruise control..due to panic or common instinct, u then might turn the steering wheel in the air resulting sudden change of direction during landing (because the cruise control is still on & front tires is rotating fast)..in this case, the car might roll over with ease. So thank God that the ESC/TC works perfectly during that bump incident

I have personally experience this before but not due to road bump..but due to slippery road during raining (not using the cruise control but because of sudden acceleration)

Hi Sifu's.. Its time for me to renew my 1st year roadtax.. Can anyone share with me the price including windscreen coverage.. any good and reasonable insurance out there?

And how much will it be if i want to add natural disaster coverage as well..

Thank u in advance

i just renew mine
insured rm70k and 1.3k for winscreen

After one year, we usually insure Forte 1.6SX for sum insured at RM75,000.
The full premium would be RM2199.

Windscreen : Sum insured is RM1500, premium is RM225 a year

Riot, strike, accessories inside vehicle (theft) of which premium is 15% of sum insured.
For flood, storm, landslide , premium is 0.5% of sum insured.

Hope that helps.

Thanks bro.. Mind share what insurance..

Thank for the useful information bro.. very helpful..

Forte

mine is AXA

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!!

Throughout 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~!!

do u c A/C word in the aircon display ?

Is it happen frequently?

Yes, confirmed on....

Nope....only 4 times since i got the car about a month's old only....

Of course 97 will be better for acceleration,,but consider of cost I am using 95..

ya 97 cannot afford ....somemore i hear some rumors on FB saying that petrol price will increase and ron 97 will be more then Rm3.00
