don't quite get what u mean for the drop gear. mind to explain more with a situation?

Just want to know.. for example, when i am slowing down and gear is dropping, the meter drop down really low. And I had to lift up a bit of my foot and re-press back the pedal. If I keep pressing the pedal while driving the car seems like really slow.. like wanna stop. Is it happened to anybody or it is a common for Forte? Just want to know..

hmm...for my driving habit, i will release the pedal when i need it to slow down...
when the gear drop to no.3 or no.2 (my estimation only, bcoz we don't see the gear number in auto mode) i can feel a bit jerk ("chok" in cantonese).

i think what u experienced was the engine break, however i would suggest u go to SC for a checking, especially the gear/gear oil. smile.gif

Thanks for the advise. Will surely check with SC once the mileage reach. smile.gif

By the way, how old is your forte? if its still new like few months old give her some time. Like mine during first couple of months when milage still low, the engine bit sluggish when accelerating after slowing down. Now clocking to 9K (8mths), my ride become smoother.

If your forte is older than mine, SC is the best place to get further diagnose.

Thanks for the advise. Really helpful. My Forte is only 2 week actually. Will give it ride for a couple of month first. rclxms.gif

actually don't need to wait until the mileage reach.
you may go to SC for regular checking as preventive maintenance.

in penang island we have Kia Jns sc which is very good, the boss recommend us go back for 18 point checking every month. of cos it is FREE  thumbup.gif

Many thanks again for the advise... will surely go to SC for checking after this..
