thread bashing korean car ke-123456789

Why malaysians still hate kpops? Their car has improved a lot for the last 10 years what.

Owned Forte 2.0L 6-Speed variant for 4 years, ZERO defect / rattle. The best among all cars I owned before. Regret selling it.

DSG issues already solved ? 🤕

Drove my uncles 2014 jetta...so nice to drive...just worried breakdown

I donr expect any car to be bulletproof...just worry when it comes to sourcing parts when it needs replacing

Scary stories of shit aftersales services by Naza Kia

All comparing to godcar

But kimchi cars so much cooler !

Would you say its much more expensive, when compared to your almera ?
How has your ease of sourcing parts been ?

Depend on previous owner driving style, the way previous owner apply DSG also. But usually it is the mechatronic issue in DSG gearbox. If still got warranty can claim, otherwise need to standby RM7000++ for new mecha unit ahaha

Parts wise okay ke bro?

My only concern is that, worried susah cari and expensive.

7k 😱😰💀

Civic FB 2.0 Facelift pun ok gak bro.

But im already bored of jepunis car. Im still eyeing on Jetta actually despite there are multiple issues with the car

Dunno why people still worried about kolian car spare parts availability. I mean if the model really is rare like genesis (if sold locally) or really old model then I would understand.

My so-called low volume elantra HD still can find spare parts without any problem at all. just drive to foreman, he calls the supplier, and there comes the parts.

Most cars now share same parts across models of same parentage. Like in this case hyundai/kia, elantra HD shares a lot of parts with forte.

You mean service cost or spare parts?

My Rio Sedan is till under warranty, so far touch wood haven't claim anything yet, so can't comment of spare parts.

Service cost wise I would say it comparable with Nissan service.

Driving experience wise, still loving driving my Kia till today
Somehow it's just different.

I used to drive kia spectra5 hatchback

No major problem for 8 years before i sell it

Full tank can drive up to 520km urban driving

I plan to get a used kia optima or sportage for second car

Please introduce workshop. Thanks

parts...you can even get it from our own LYN garage section...their price is very reasonable...kalau malas nak cari kat luar.

this year my cerato warranty will expired. so far so good. no major issue

after warranty end will service at autobiz autosaver

sparepart should be easy to get nowdays. i can see a lot of k3 on road. price it depend. if go to SC, any brand also cost bomb.

choose wise. car is not for investment. if you like, just go for it.

aftersales, i think there a lot of korea shop outside if you dont want to go SC.

i bought a used cerato last year, still under warranty. no issue, car in good conditon, full service record. low mileage..enjoying the ride. so far no issue..had a good experience servicing the car at SC.

it's just that service is according to schedule in the book. for low mileage car like mine, although the mileage is only 50k but needs to service at 80k according the book..

other than that is ok

Have a Forte for 9 years now. Still going strong. Scraped plans to sell it for new car. Hutang free better.

No major issues past 9 years. Some were replacement of crankshaft sensor (rm200), absorber link (rm150) and cable gear (rm300 I think). No other major issues.
