Bro Iz, our car now also under Alliance on 3rd to 5th year. Need to pay 200 for every claim. So touchwood any symptom now better go claim fast fast.

Yup..i know that. NazaKia sometime ago offered Extended Warranty (another 3 years warranty also under Alliance) to all Forte owners which their cars is under standard 2 years warranty..but it comes with extra cost..RM5xx for 1.6 & RM7xx for the 2.0. Every claim also need to pay the excess fee of RM200 as others with the 5 years warranty. I ended up not opting the Extended Warranty though sweat.gif

Ya, I saw the hoo haa hoo haa back then. We are abit luckier in this sense.

Last time Bro Titarium, KFC, MyForte, SMK, back then the young XionCity now are all no where in sight. I still see the MyForte stickers around the KL and Selangor area. It must be one of the senior members.

This pic shows the inside of the VG shark fin antenna..note that there are metal signal receiver inside the antenna (connected to original antenna base) that explained why the reception is up to par with the stock 'bee sting' antenna

VG claim to use "Pre-installed 3M custom double-sided adhesive gasket". I think should not fly off since so many have used this since Mark I. This one that we are getting is Mark II.
*
I've sticked the VG sharkfin since 2010. Yet to fly off until now ;p

Just make sure u clean the surface thoroughly from any dirts n oil before u stick it..that will do the trick.

Hi all, I have 1 set of original Mobis Window Visor to let go. Just arrived yesterday. Brand new. Box also have not open.

Reason to sell is that my wife booked the same for me as a surprise. When the set I booked arrived yesterday, she was shocked why the package is under my name.

When I said I booked it 2 days ago, she said she booked the same thing. So by next week, I will ahve 2 same sets. Hence I want to let go my set.

Who is interested please feel free to PM me.

Still available bro? pic please...

Ok bro..need to see the pic first. My current door visor with the chrome lining looks a bit dull now. Might change it if the design & price is right smile.gif I like the one without the "Forte" wording on it...

Bro Iz,

This is the visor. No 'Forte' wording. Only not highlighted 'Mobis' wording. I took down the picture from the same source I bought from. Price lets discuss on PM la. I just want to take back my cost. This one comes with 3M adhesive and clips.
*
Beside the 3M sticker..got clips or not to secure the door visor installation?

Clips ada. Confirmed by the seller. I shook the box and I heard loose metal clinging sound from inside the box. I open up and check. Price ngam? You in Kedah now? I send via Skynet or you can COD?
*
Actually i'm in the midst of changing it or just respray the current one. I like the chrome lining in which the current door visor had & no wording on it. Will put this on hold for now..sorry ya bro..i hope u dont mind i'm asking it

Ohh..yet to happen to me as of now. Pressing the "NAVI" button would not help i guess? Try to reset the HU or perhaps u could play around with the GPS micro SD card

Yesterday went to SC. To my surprise, somehow got 2 new Forte 1.6SX 4-speed on sale (year make 2012). Color..1 Metal bronze, 1 silver. Specs all like the previous 4 speed version. The SA there told me the price is around RM75k only. Quite a good buy i i must say

Hmm...that means they are controlling the price even for the older version. This means it is good for the current user. Imagine if they sell at 60k for a one year car. At that time the 4 speeder 1.6 is selling at 81500 right? So this one year car is 6k cheaper because of the yearly depreciation.
*
81800 if i'm not mistaken. Anyway..limited units available. Can save about RM13k from the current 1.6SX 6-speed

To me coating has no real fact that it works and it justifies the money I spend. SG is the cheapest I know of and up to some super coating which cost me 1800, with 12 nano meter coating thickness. Suppose to prevent scratches and chips.

But with 1800, you can do alot of things and I am not sure if these coating can last you 5 years as claimed. Also, I am enjoying some clay bar time, bathing time with my 'mistress'. Scrub her clean and wipe her dry. Even with this coating you cannot be lazy.

With 1800 + few more hundreds, might as well put a new paint later on instead of coating rolleyes.gif

Anyone using Sierra Glow? Any good?

I'm using it..after 3 years+ now, still got water beading effect during rain or car wash though the effect is not at its prime now (as during the first 2 years of applying it). I guess the coating can last long enough..worth the price i must say.

Thanks bro, btw how much was that? Is that OEM? How much the GPS is not function? It was looking nicely in your picture.  icon_idea.gif

I bought it last time @ somewhere around 2.8k (can't remember the exact price) with installation. Ya..that's OEM unit made for Kia Forte & it really fit nicely as u see on the pic. The HU is compatible with the audio buttons on the steering wheel. Willing to let go this HU..just offer me the price if u interested. If the HU for some reason is not functioning, money back guaranty biggrin.gif

This is the same model you got 2 days after bro KFC? You are like one of the first to get this HU in the car. Why sell it? Upgrading huh?
*
Yupp..i'm the first Forte 2.0 owner that installed the GPS/DVD HU in Malaysia (i believe), but not to say upgrading though. I changed to new HU due to this HU GPS function is malfunctioning (other functions is functioning well). I need that GPS so much..that's why
