No no thats the one placed at your cold air intake, at engine bay.

This air-cond filter filters air that comes into the car cabin. You notice there will be 2 knobs in your glovebox, on each side. Thats the thg to open the glove box to gain access to the cabin filter.

Driving for the past 1.5 years . Still at stock tyres. Tyres still look very good ,ie having "deep thread" ,although going to clock 30K KM now.
So far no problem on the car , only the noise from tyres. Engine noise not so noticeable.
Any good advice low noise tyres and lasting at least 2 years tyres  ??? As I travel about 100km per day. TQ.
*
i no good adviser/suggester, but i change to mc5 after 44k using stock.
the noise is sooooooo "no noise". laugh.gif

but only within 10k+- la....after that bising jugak. but still less noise than stock.

Thank you for the advise. after 10K the noise coming back, is it also partly due to the sound proofing problem for the forte ?
*
i think due to tyre become harder..
and most tyre will be nosier after 8k++...

BUT...any tyre will give less noise than stock one. rolleyes.gif

yesterday, went to naza auto solutions in PJ, to update my multimedia infotainment system (free). previous my shell version was 2.82.x, now is 2.89.5 already.

noticed that radio receptions is slightly better than before... and also i have requested them to unlock the video playing features because previously mine always displayed "ENJOY MUSIC WHILE DRIVING" tongue.gif

other than that, i am able to off the display only (standby) while others such radio still playing. previously, if i did that, the entire audio unit was off doh.gif

how did they turn off that "ENJOY MUSIC WHILE DRIVING"?

hi all, since you have driven and tested forte all these years, can you share your valuable experience on the updated price of spare parts & maintenance costs?

for authorised sc:
1) Brake pad cost(all 4)
2) absorber
3) other parts

non-authorized sc:
1) Brake pad cost(all 4)
2) absorber
3) other parts
comparatively, is it more expensive than T & H for the same parts?
*
66k....
never change any of those yet.
