When we send our car for service, can we look at it being service or we should just sit kuaikuaily at the waiting room? If cannot watch, meaning we have to take the word of Kia staff that the car is serviced properly and thoroughly? 

Any recommendations on good workshop that does touch up on paint scratches in seri kembangan?  Cat left 3 scratches on my cerato

by the way, many have said about the fuel consumption about cerato, i just wonder, anyone of u guys are actually facing terrible fuel consumption although u think u are driving it 'correctly'?

Hi everyone, my first time registering to low yat. After reading a couple of pages in this thread I am interested in the cerato 1.6 not the kx, and someone mentioned there are still free service of parts & labor for 3 years! Here is my enquiries for the cerato that is loved by many here:

1) The best deal for a red/grey 1.6 variant (not kx)
2) Best interest rate offered for a 5 years loan (best be lower than 2.6%)
3) I know of the discount of rm5888, maybe a higher discount?
4) Would be extremely interested if there is the 3 years free service (parts & labor)
5) Also would like to know how much does it cost for an additional leather seats & how much are the bodykits?
6) Lastly, ofcoz would accept my old car for a trade in

Additional info: I am currently trying to clear my outstanding loan if permissable by end of this month

Anyone know where i can fix a deep scratch without repainting the whole car door?

Some asshxxx decide to scratch my car which is just 2 weeks old. Silver colour.

No worries man as this is what a discussion group is for really. I'm sure everyone has their reasons, but well, here's my take on your questions as I asked the same when I was thinking of which car to get:

1) Value for money, bang for the buck. I tested the Honda Civic. Love it, but it just feels plastic and you really are not getting what you paid for. Safety wise, K3 is leaps and bounds ahead, and you get a whole lot more metal for that price (hence the weight). The only thing that the Civic had as far as I was concerned was the much better implemented gearbox. The Altis, 3/3 gave me the same reaction. Throwback to the 70s, wrapped in a 21st century shell.

2) Yes, but hopefully that will change.

3) Maintenance for any boutique brand car (or what I would classify as a car company/manufacturer that does not move a lot of product in the country in question) will always be higher somewhat compared to mainstream brands. For Korean cars, due to their high dependence on sensors, the cost will go up slightly for replacement of these sensors should they fail, and it does take a person with good knowledge of the car to troubleshoot these sensor problems (hence the higher manpower cost associated with the activity)

4) In so far, the FC is pretty decent depending on how you drive. My average currently after sorting out all my issues is about 570 KM/tank, giving me nearly 13 days between visits to the pump. Driving style 50/50 city/highway.
I think the real issue is only no.3 (at least from my personal experience).

anyone knows the standard weight of K3's original rims?

Hi situs, anyone encounter such issue? My brand new Cerato head lamp have some water vapor within it.is it due to the seal problem? Planning to escalate it when I do my first service

It not supposed to happen at the head lamp area as it's sealed. So, the only explanation is the seal is not good. Could be due to misalignment of the rubber seal or any other factor. Will continue to observe it and escalate to SC if it doesnt go away.

thanks bro, damn happy with the car.. almost wanna sleep inside the car
