Hi Guys, I've been looking at this thread but can't find any link or info about brake switch. I found online that I can change it myself but don't know where to find the sparepart shop. any info? My location is Shah Alam / Setia Alam / Meru.
Thanks.

Google 'express mobis' segambut

As Bro Epo said, try "Express Mobis" or "KIA Power Auto Parts (KPAP)"...both located in Segambut.

Not able to help recommend any spare part shops which are closer to your location. Hopefully others here can.

Tried NSS Glenmarie?

NSS do not sell spare part I think.. Anyway will go and check. Thanks.

Quite far from my place really but I'll check whether that's the best to go.
Thanks.

Give them a call & they can check the stock availability. If no stock, sometimes they are helpful to order it in for you.

I mean at least I dont have to take the whole day off, and can just take some time off.
I think it is best to check stock availability too. Thanks!

any tyre workshop in ampang/puchong to recommend on correcting the left pulling poblem for our forte? it's a bit annoying

Hi, good afternoon everyone. Am wondering if this forum still active? LOL

I am newbie here and planning to buy a car for myself after cny.

I did some research before and still don't know should i buy a new bezza or a used 2013 forte?

Any expert here can give me some feedback? BTW I'll drive the car to genting every weekend and will fetch 4 ppl together with me too.

Thanks a lot.

Hmm...since you've not specified which Bezza model/trim which you're comparing against the 2013 Forte, let's take the premium range which is the BEZZA 1.3 Premium X - Auto.

On the spec sheet, it appears that both vehicles are quite comparable. Bezza with a lighter kerb weight vs Forte which is heavier but with a higher capacity engine. Nonetheless, perhaps we can all say that the Bezza edges the Forte just a notch in terms of Power to Weight ratio (although the Forte could very well manage the Genting hill climb if the Driver knows how to manage the manual shiftronic mode).

Safety wise, I'll have to say that the Forte comes out on top with ABS + VSC equipped whereas the Bezza only has ABS + EBD.

I have not driven a Bezza up Genting, so I wouldn't know for sure which vehicle would be best suited for such purpose.
Nonetheless, my vote might probably go to the Forte for a roomier interior + slight edge on the safety feature (especially useful on winding roads.

Only thing with the Forte (or for any other vehicles for that matter) is that one should always be mindful of the braking system, especially going downhill from Genting.

Hope this helps and good luck!

Thanks for replying
Did Forte have any major issues that will cost a lot? Cause six years car already, quite worry lol.
I saw a lot of used Forte with 50-70k mileage and the price are around RM33-40k.

If the Forte don't have any major issue then i'll go for it, i guess.
Cause the first time i saw forte i already fall in love with it hahah!

Then how about Saga 1.3 executive cvt if compared to forte? I know the safety features of forte is better than saga, just wanted to know which one is worthy cause RM40k can buy the new saga already (but i still preferred forte lol, just wanted to know you guys opinion =D)

p/s: sorry for my bad english

So my aircon is not cold even after gas recharge. Also i noted whinning sound seems coming from the dashboard whenever on the aircon.

Went to a very reputable shop here in Bintulu, & was quoted RM2,300++, (compressor about RM1800 plus servicing & labour).

I accept that we have to pay for quality but how much is too much? Is this price justified?

Check the compressor first, sometimes is bcoz of the sensor switch need to replace only.

Yes, it could be due to a faulty valve (Thermal Expansion Valve) which would normally cost anywhere between RM 180-230 in the Klang Valley area.

Or perhaps even a leaking cooling coil (which may cause some hissing noise) that is located behind the glove box area.

my car have a "kruk kruk" noise when travelling at low speed ONLY when the aircon is on. mechanic says it's due to a loose pully tensioner, does it cost much to change belt tensioner ?

Isn't the Belt Tensioner Pulley usually replaced during replacement of the V-Belt?

Before change... Pls do check alternator pulley.
