just talking with one of KIA SA doing promotion at my office. he claim that for new 1.6L 6 speed, now KIA already make some tuning to the ECU for better speed & better fuel csmption. He also claim that the car itself already increase of it horse power. Any existing owner here already send their forte to SC to upgrade their ECU to be up to standard with new forte?

i maybe a future kia forte owner...hehehehhe

Mine just bought 2 weeks ago, so mine consider tune ECU?

No such sound in my case, only dashboard and door panels rattling sound

Emm... wierd. Something wrong here.

This is from Test drives for the Kia’s Forte 1.6sx, Peugeot 308 THP and 407

"noise that are generated which sounded like the wheels noise traveled into the Cabin and generating a big “Hollow” sound like rolling an empty barrel on the rubber wheels."

I believe I'm experience the same noise.

Inclusive of the tebuk process, repaint and install?

Would it affect the main frame in any way? Sorry, noob in this.  tongue.gif

I don't think will effect main frame. Because tebuk on the fender, not main frame.
