So it is reverse no brake? Forward all OK?
*
Forward so far so good.
Only in reverse intermittently. The brakes gets hard to step on and the car won't stop.

At first they suspected it was ABS but no solution, that was 2 months ago.

Recently I've sent it back, apparently they think it is the brake hose now. Let's see how it goes.
So annoyed cos they wanted to charge me because my warranty was just recently over a month ago.

Cable I think I will still believe. Brake hose is the line that transfer brake oil to brakes for the brake to work right? If that is not working/ bloated/ punctured, it will affect the forward also.

So please let us know what or how they fix this for you. Update us will you?

Brake cable as in brake hose?
*
Err..brake cable and brake hoses perform different functions, though they are in the same system (vehicle brake system).
Also, I believe modern cars doesn't utilize brake cables anymore hmm.gif

EDIT: LOLs, my reply above doesn't apply anymore coz u beat me to it.

I suppose, something along those lines. I'm no car expert  tongue.gif

Care to elaborate in further detail?
Like brake pedal feel (during and before engaging Reverse)?
Abnormal sound, etc.?

EDIT: It should be ABS or Electronic sensor problem.

Read from newspaper several weeks ago, statement from NazaKia top management, got about 20k++ Forte on the road now (Malaysia). Consider that as a rare breed? I believe so thumbup.gif

Bro it is good that you have got the rims. That is one of my target rims after Conquista 4.

The price that I have got to know is 1350 for the rims, 200 for the lock nuts + centre cone. So total is 1550. From Teoh Brothers in Bayu Klang.
*
the price is after trade in stock rim? else trade in stock say can get around 500, means top up 1K ok ma smile.gif

What a calculation..lolz tongue.gif

The rare breed is one factor, another rare thing is our cheap but high specs car thumbup.gif

The new Cerato is better specced, but it comes with a much higher price tag that makes it a bit less value for money as compared to our Forte whistling.gif

In my taman perumahan I have spotted 6 Fortes which I know the house location. There are more of those that I have seen around the taman but do not know where they live.
