Congrats bro! Honestly silver is quite nice. Was thinking to take silver also but then decided white color. Btw, hv u tinted the car?

congrats, any nice deal there? How is the interest?

Some of the new cerato owners have been complaining about the Steering "klok klok" sound. anyone here facing the same prob?

Any funny sound or uncomfortable vibration?

did it drip below the floor covering?

hmm... normally the floor covering is waterproof... so it wont kena below. my kelisa lasttime it drip alot between the gap. damn smelly coz water smell. if below the floor mat still ok la...as long not below the carpet/covering.

1st time owning a new car here... how long should the break-in last? and mind sharing how u break-in ur car?

For any new car, you should observe the break-in period for the first 1000 Km. There are a few things you should not do during the break-in period

1) Do not overspeed. That means to say, go slow and steady and don't drive excessively fast. Perhaps below 90 km/hr is good

2) No sudden acceleration and/or sudden braking. Basically, do not let your rpm go up too high.

Although most new engines are now built tougher and more robust compared to the older generation ones, it is better to observe this simple tradition when driving a brand new car. KIA does not specifically advice on this matter in the owner's manual either.

add me as kia cerato owner here :

1.6 red colour

WYR XXXX - manage to get my ride on 13th July 2013.. 2.46% - 9 years

No promo /free gift.. since the stock quite limited (SA tell me - don't know true or not..). 500 cerato first batch before Hari Raya..already +- 800-1k people book/register interest..he gave me 300 raytech tint voucher but not using it - since cheaper deal in online coupon website (groupon etc.)

Already done 1st service..now 13XX km already..superb NVH after service.. fuel consumption quite okay..7.6-7.7litre/ 100km (+- 13km/ litre) 50% highway/50% city ride but minimum traffic jam..

Problem :

Nexen CP632a -> ordinary tyre..i've get used to continental/michelin before..recently found out stock tyre quite noisy after 1k run in..if have budget need to change to comfort/performance tyre.. if have $$ probably trade in stock tyre (please recommend to me - shop that allow trade in new tyre, wanna take GY eagle f1 asym 2:sweat: see jalan kapar offering 450 per donut  ) anybody sell cheap Gy Eagle f1 please pm me 

No warning if you fogot to switch off the lamp when locking the car/no autolock (can this be enabled in SC/control menu?) i haven't read the thick manual yet..

front passenger seat do not have electrical seat as of driver seat..perhaps NAZA allow us to upgrade the seat to full-electrical seat as well. The seat is quite low..quite hard to see things under front hood..   luckily have front sensor.. + adding sat nav will be good as well

You can turn the headlamp to auto mode as it equipped with sensor. So no need worry about forgot to turn off headlamp. It will auto turn off it self after you turn off engine and lock the dock.

Usually NazaKia SC did not practice that (bring own engine oil). Better use their recommended engine oil as to preserve the 5-year warranty 

Yupp..no alarm/buzzer sounds when forgot to turn off the headlight while exiting the car. But anyway, the headlight will be turned off automatically as soon as we open the car's door. This applies to Forte & i strongly believe that the Cerato should also behave the same

Seems silver a lot of ppl waiting. Maybe not so easy to get dirty

may i know if my friend want to cancel her cerato booking of rm1000, can she get the exact amount and how is the procedures? how long would it takes? thanks.

Cerato launched on 2/7. I booked on 7/7 sunday. 8/7 monday, loan submitted. 10/7 loan approved. 12/7 friday, signed loan doc. 15/7 monday register jpj. 17/7 received my car....this thursday..going for 1k service. Cerato 1.6 white owner.

Guys, hows the fuel consumption for Cerato 1.6? Mind to share?

Hi gbx, thanks for the reply.
Btw, Cerato full tank costs how much? (Based on RM2.10/KM)
How many KM it able to travel with 1 full tank?

there's thread on this forum about cerato vs civic vs focus. Looks like many forumers voted focus. Is it true focus is much more superior and cerato really unmatch by focus quality? both cars price about the same.
