Done my first car service.

1. Very friendly technician. Explain to me every causes and technical stuffs.
2. Asking for more faced problem instead of waiting me to say all of the problems.
3. Fast service. It took 1 hour for regular maintenance + alignment.

The SC is located in Batu Caves. The boss is Thomas Tan and is a very polite man. smile.gif

Recommended SC afterall. biggrin.gif

Better to make appointment. As early as possible because start at 10am, a lot of cars keep coming.

Look for anyone, got people serve you one.

It costs me about RM220, KIA recommend to use fully synthetic oil.

Vk**l, Ll**r, etc all also cheap tint only. What makes them not cheap is the brand itself.

haha, i quite agree also, my friend make 3m tinted, after 3 years, now when i step u his car, i feel my car tinted better even mine is cheaper, i think even branded, after 2-3 yaats also become not so good, so i choose rm500 range , use few years then make a new tint again tongue.gif
those branded 1 is more nice a bit, but the price sleep.gif" really not cheap

Huh? Really??
Care to explain/enlighten me on how you came to this conclusion bro? I'd really like to know..
Serious? Is it really that bad after 2-3 years, with branded auto-tint films?
If it's not too much to ask, could you give a little more insight/info on this?i
*
just my self feeling only, my friend car tinted brand 3M cost him 1K, his car after 3 years, the heat rejection is weak already, i feel my car new tinted is better than him tongue.gif
actually tinted this thing depend on people also, some people can tahan hot 1, no tinted also drive like that, branded normally should have better quality. i feel tinted after few years the heat rejection sure will reduce, thats y even many branded also warranty u 5 years only even cost u 1-2k smile.gif

I believe this only applies to the early batch of Forte that comes with 2 year warranty which has an option to purchase for another 3 years extended warranty from the insurance company. Current Forte with originally comes with 5 years warranty from NazaKia should not face this issue i believe...

my car is 2013 car, that day i went to SC, SC told me mine should be 1st 2 years under kia, 3-5 years warranty is under allianz...
after the SC told me i only know, feel KIA like a bit cheat people about the 5 years warranty

You can go to my sales thread for more info:
http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=2630557&hl

nothing will happen on the car. The fuse on the Firestorm unit will kill itself when the current goes haywire. Fuse putus, engine cant start only until you replace the fuse.
well, I got 6.1km/L on the first week after pasang frestorm compared to the normal 11km-12km/L.

pijak pijak pijak just to enjoy the sudden surge in acceleration... LOL

Hi, firestorm will make the spark plug burn to more dark and need change faster? i saw some post say about it last time hmm.gif

Hi All,

I am currently in the midst of looking for a car. It's either Kia Forte 1.6SX or Kia Rio.

Would appreciate if anyone can provide some answers to the below questions on Kia Forte 1.6SX:
1. Is it powerful enough to go up Genting with 4 adult passengers? Anyone tried it, please help to comment.
2. Does it feel underpowered for 1.6 6-speed engine?
3. Can anyone share how much discount and free gifts did you receive when purchasing the 1.6SX version?
4. How effective is the GPS?
5. For Forte 1.6sx 6-speed owner, have anyone tried the Kia Rio? Would like to know your thoughts on the power comparison between those 2. I know they are different engines, however, would like to know whether there is any drastic differences in terms of power.

Thanks.
