anyone face this where your kia forte gets very dusty inside?

dear all, need advise.

My Forte 1.6sx running unstable on uneven road recently, especially after make a turn and back to straight road, i can feel it shakes left and right for 2 to 3 seconds before it stable down.

Wondering this related to alignment? or Absorber? or Coil Spring? Or other issue?

Hello expert,

Can I check if anyone here have problem on the belt tension-er? it is causing knocking noise now when started the engine, more noise when accelerating.

Beside, it seems the tappet sound coming back again even I had changed the part during the warranty.

My car is Forte 2.0 6 speed. Recently I have encountered that car is jerking when I move from P to D. even i pull back to P i heard once 'dat' sound. Then do the same thing again moved to D, car jerk seriously. I waited my car engine get hot. same problem. tried few time off and on engine, and able to get small jerk so I continue driving. then i feel tat the gear changing was not smooth. But drive for distance everything back to normal.

So during this few days, don feel any big jerk. Just that can feel the gear changing sometime not smooth. And if I use auto mode (not the manual mode), the car seems no power. driving 40kmh the gear reached 4-5 speed.

Hope got some advice here. THank you

my car was 3 years old. And the so called belt tensioner sound was happened since early last year.

Don't think is mounting problem though.

I think the same too. should not be the tensioner sound. But i think to pay a visit to RedCube.

My car previously did warranty few times, not sure what is the actual parts basically. But is to fix the engine knocking sound, tappet sound, steering noise, compressor changed.

Not sure if the same issue happened again and need to change the same stuff.

recently... change the w/screen due to pecah... claimed insurance.

then install new tint.
it suppose to be better than previous one. it is.
but, the dashboard reflection is so obvious make the view kinda bluish. trees not green, but bit blue. lol.

anyone facing this situation? 

i think same with ori one.. changed at dr cermin. got all the wordings kia... 

still sky clear b4 i install the tint....

later will visit the tint shop again....will see what their explanation/suggestion.

Anyone have leaking shock absorbers? Mine was detected last weekend and wonder if I need to change it with original parts or another brand. If another brand, which one would be recommended. A tyre workshop guy mentioned Mando but am unsure. Price range around RM220.

Morning guys..just now the SC quoted me rm395+labour charge for both link rod..rhs and lhs..is it worth it or perhaps any suggestion to do it by 'outside' wshop?suspension parts from SC for sure are of the highest quality..dun dare to replace with aftermarket/oem parts..need ur advise on this..tq..

Guys,I've  just realize that my headlight angle is high.any idea if its easy to adjust it back to normal.any standard level or clips that i need to look at to indicates its at neutral level.need some advise......prefer to learn and DIY

Guys,does the absorber for forte koup and forte is the same or can it being used to replaced standard forte ones?have anybody tried it.how is it?

Anyone here on after market absorbers? Those which is much more better/comfortable than the stock absorbers.

Hi guys,

Did oil change + replace spark plugs yesterday and now the car feels more sluggish.

Been reading up, my findings are either overfilled engine oil or plugs not properly gapped.

How much is too much engine oil? 1 cm above full level still ok or should I get it drained?

FYI, I'm not a car guy...what other reasons could it be?

They (Autosaver) used hks super racing 10w35. Can't really find any reviews on this oil.

Drain some oil out or just change to different oil altogether?

Since I drove 5km with flat tyre, at the end the tyre is damaged. Left around 30% of thread so just change new ones. So both rear tyres are new. Front is older by about 3 months.

Notice car is wobbly even after changed new tyres so went back to tyre shops to ask them to help me check. One rim a bit bangkok, so change to spare tyre's rim. They also checked  but tyre not bengkak. Still the same. 

How to know the kia forte 2010 i was going to buy is 4 speed or 6 speed version?

Kia Forte 1.6 (B) SX

4 speed better or 6 speed better?

The 4 speed one shop near my house but 6 speed one jauh.. About 60++ km

Bro, go for the 2.0l seriously. 1.6 is downright under powered. You'll be chugging more fuel than sipping.

On hind side, you are right.

2.0l do give more grunt compared to the 1.6l albeit RM90 for road tax compared to RM372 for 2.0l.

But seriously! how conservative would it give you? if fuels a concern, Honda Insight Hybrid 1.3l
