Don't really mind on the resale value as I mostly buy it to drive, not to sell.

What I want to know is on the service, whether it's good or shitty like Peugeot and VW? Car maintenance and repairing cost?

I am not looking into resale value. I am looking into maintenance and repair cost. Is it same or near to Japanese cars?

If you live in Klang Valley, Renault service so far is the bestest service yet.

Sidenotes: If you make frens with the service advisor, and technician, you warranty claim will be kawtim without much question.

Sorry but I am a bit new to this, why Renault service? Kia is sharing the same service center as Renault?

Other than warranty claim, how's the service from the service center?

Renault is under Tan Chong.
Different with Kia attitude which is under Naza.

I only suggest that if you have the budget, why not try to test a new Koleos.
A big SUV with 4WD.

Service center from Renault Glenmarie is good. Only the place need to renovate to compete with other big boys in that area.

Not really into Renault. Saw the car design and don't really like it.

Was looking into Honda HR-V, Civic and Kia Sportage.

HRV - B segment suv
civic - C segment sedan
sportage - C segment suv

out of this three, sportage is the best, if you choose sportage turbo diesel lagi best

in terms of service and warranty, i think kia is better than honda, this few years a lot of people complaint about honda parts and quality problem, the most recent example is this https://www.facebook.com/lee.k.chai.581/pos...156326139859489 , many comments said honda poor quality and waited forever for parts replacement

Not into diesel haha. I know they are different segment but they all look sexy to me laugh.gif

Problem is I am not sure how's the service from Kia as Kia is not as popular as the Japanese cars in Malaysia sweat.gif

Well I guess you live in a hole. Which car have no issues ? Just need to see which has more issues than others and how much to maintain. And I didnt say Jap car have less issues.....

Did you own one? Comeon this is not Kopitiam, if you have any first hand info do share.

Duckies try to get info directly from owners for Sportage.

As far as in general, Korean model, there is no issue in spare parts, and the pricing is comparable with Japanese counterparts.

I used to own a Optima, had no issues in terms on reliability or parts. Currently I own a Sorento, its been great.
