is it like a klok klok sound?

ABS most probably. when u are braking on a pothole, the friction between tyre and road contact will become less due to different height of the surface area. easily happen when u are hitting the pothole at fast speed and applying high braking force.

maybe sound like "grupgrupgrup.." like car the dragged along something heavy till car completely stop
ooh..make sense..but the ABS light never on except after start button pressed at first..hmm,already advised him to go check at kia..thanks for the input btw 

I have noticed that many Cerato owners are very concerned and disturbed with the FC displayed on the HU which actually is the current average FC at that moment of drive. The FC varies from time to time according to the road conditions and your habit of driving.

The FC is worst when the car is not moving with engine idling, aircon on especially during hot weather. You can see the FC figure jumps up scaringly fast. My baby ever went more than 15.0 ltr/100km. Why? because the fuel is being consumed without any mileage covered.

Well, with my K3 I have achieved less that 6.0 ltr/100km during driving on the inter-states 2-way roads at around 90 km/h without much stopping at traffic light junctions. Best testing is during driving on the highways with cruise control on. Setting the speed at 110km/hr can easily achieve less than 7.0 ltr/100km while speed set at 120km/h the FC goes beyond 7.0 ltr/100km. Obviously the higher speed set the higher FC would be. When you want to test out with your babies, alway reset the FC to "---" (meaning "0")before you proceed. 

We are driving with mixed road conditions and habbits changing depending on the situation everyday. So it is more important and meaningful to find out the overall average FC. That can be done by, first, top up your fuel tank (capacity 50 ltrs) and reset either of the trip couter A & B to read "0". Then drive with your usual mode for a certain milage (say 50, 100, 200 or more km), then top up your fuel tank again and check out from the station meter's reading or the receipt on how many litres have been pumped in (or litres consumed). So divide the mileage covered by the litres pumped in or consumed and you will get your actual FC in km/ltr. To get the FC in ltr/100km, just divide the numberof litres consumed by the mileage covered and multiply with 100. 

If your friends, driving different brands of cars, want to compare with your baby's FC. just follow the method mentioned, e.i. start and top up fuel from the same gas station, set each other's trip counter to read "zero", drive through the same route trailing each other and then stop and top up at the a same station..... No point boosting or assuming each other's FC being the best without actually proving it. One fact, a bigger cc car will not save more fuel than a smaller cc car unless it has special technology break through.

In this case I believe, oddly Cerato's (c-segment) FC can be as good as Vious's(b-segment) because Cerato has 6-speed transmission and low drag coefficient. Vious has only 4-speed.

This is just my personal view, correct me if I am wrong.

Did you by any chance, go into Keypad mode and pressed Mobile Media button?

did he feel his brake pedal kicking back?

Does anyone got successful to load other gps program other than the stock speednavi?

Ah.. Yes, sorry didnt stated earlier.. The brake pedal felt like kicking back while that happened..

I did!! following the old thread..

Hi,
question regarding the fuel indicator, dunno if anyone experience the same?
My fuel indicator (the one show how far you can go), always become empty after reach 50KM, question is, does that mean I still can go for 50KM after its show empty or it is really empty?

Thanks.

It's completely normal. My Forte also behave the same. I believe Kia purposely doing it that way to make sure owners are not driving the car further without refueling. Meaning that..please refuel ASAP. By the way, it's not a good practice to drive a car which is too low in fuel as it might harm the catalytic converter

Any cny promotion for cerato?

Planning to get a C-segment car this year.. Now considering kia cerato, honda civic, toyota altis and Mazda 3. Do u guys suggest to get cerato after driving it for some time??

Just for sharing purposes in case anyone experienced the same problem :

Recently I had this "Jerking" Problem when i slow my car down. it was quite bad and the feeling was the the car had a "sudden pull back" when i slowed down.

Initially, i tot it could be a gear problem (which is gonna be troublesome). Sent it to PJ RedCube to check. They had experience this issue before and resolved it within 30 mins.

The solution : Plug it into the "Computer" and do a reset. Problem Solved!
