I'm in the process of buying a new FoFi Ecoboost and am able to get a 16k rebate so its rm77k although theres only 2016 model and I dont think they have a 2017 one(probably because of either the facelift have been around long enough or a new facelift on sale by end of this year or next.

how come u able to get 16K rebate and its 77k? Which branch? The car price 101,xxx OTR and there's 12k rebate for 2016 model.

Hmm. Then i should consider other car kot. Because buying the new one for 89k in 2017 sounds like not a good idea. Isn't it? confused.gif

Most of the issues have to do with clutch wear and tear as well as TCM health. Your primary concern is the age of the car.

Check the car plate number against SDAC service records, I have a feeling the mileage may have been tampered with. Make sure all scheduled services are done on time, again check with SDAC to see if the TCM warranty is intact (should be 10 years)

Lastly, prepare RM10k in case of wear and tear replacement, the most major being the clutch which costs RM5k+ to replace. Timing belt replacement service will set you back 1-2k. absorbers 1-2k....etc.

Look for used cars, not test drive units. I'm pretty sure there are relatively new used 1.5S out there within or near your budget.

There is a small square cover on the base of your shift knob (near driver side). Open that cover, pulas the notch. That will release the shift lock.

Remember, the Fiesta uses a dry dual clutch transmission. Slightly jerky/unpleasant low speed driving (<50kmh) is a characteristic of the transmission. As for other pointers, please read last few pages of the previous thread, I think I written before. Sorry, busy now so can't find for you

Recently my 2 years + old Fiesta had coolant leakage issue

I sent to PJ1, was told the water pumps koyak. Told me replacement can be done in a day. Was happy to hear that.

Hours later after sent to PJ1, called me tells me out of stock & need to wait for one month.

Then ask me to recollect the car and can continue using it just top up coolant daily.

I ask the service advisor, top up coolant daily? One bottle cost about RM10-RM12. Who is going to pay for a 1 month supply of coolant if everyday need to top up one bottle?

He goes: er....nvm can top up with water?

I was like what? what if it rusted and causes improper cooling in the future? Later Ford voids my warranty how?

He goes: nvm we bear full responsibilities!

Thing is, how can i guarantee that?

Truly fcuked up

So I type an email and send a demand to expedite the water pump delivery also demands for FOC daily coolant/reimbursement for the buying of coolant.

Let's see what they say.

if everyday need to top up one bottle coolant then you have very serious leaking issue liao. I won't drive it if it is leaking until a bottle a day.

To be precise, the actual element doing the cooling is the water. The so called "coolant" is actually antifreeze and antirust chemicals that also raises the boiling point of the water. You cant't pour pure "coolant"into the car unless it is premixed with water.

So its OK to top up water abit, as long as it does not dilute the "coolant" too much (as long as it is still orange-ish, not become totally clear).

Alternatively u can try other SC like Penchala or Seri Kembangan, maybe they have stock.

even one bottle a week considered serious already.
if one bottle a day confirm i will not be driving the car.
just imagine you bad luck and stuck in a 1-2 hour jam.
water finish = engine jam = $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ mad.gif
