Found affordable universal back trunk flip up spring in Super Save (Puncak Jalil) for RM20.00 only! It come with pair of springs, and I only use 1 sufficient to raise my trunk (without spoiler). Installation is easier than what I thought.
Super Saver address: 121-G, Jalan PUJ 3/9, Taman Puncak Jalil, Bandar Putra Permai, Selangor.

Dear all, Just need your comments on the premium quoted by my insurance agent for renewal.
Car: Forte 1.6 SX (2012)
Year 2012 - Sum Insured is 82000 and the premium was 2371 (b4 NCB). Year 2013 - Sum Insured is 74000 and the premium was 2176.5 (b4 NCB). Year 2014 - Sum to be Insured is 67000 and the premium quoted was 2439 (b4 NCB).
Claim - made a claim at end of last year after a minor accident. Hit & Run when the car was parked at a shopping mall.
The figure doesn't sound very logical for me. Car value depreciated, from 74K to 67K but then there is an increase in the premium.
Thanks for your valuable opinions.

Thanks for your valuable opinions. google search for car insurance calculator and do your own calculation..only way it can increase that i can think of is due to windscreen coverage (extra RM 270 if not mistaken)

Did they plug a laptop directly onto the HU or did they use a USB drive and copy-paste the file(s)? Also, did u manage to update your Navigation Software (i.e. SpeedNavi)? Many thanks in advance for your answers

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?

You also can find this from Google map: 3.022343, 101.677196
