Thecarboy302 3rd Gear October 2, 2021 Author Share October 2, 2021 So far I have seen a few GT-Line units and a few base LX units, haven't seen any EX models. LX still using same 15" rim design as pre-facelift, only way to tell a pre-facelift and facelift LX is the new Kia logo. 🤣 ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

IronIIoxide 2nd Gear January 18, 2022 Share January 18, 2022 Hi all shifus I currently own a Kia Cerato 2019 (BD Platform) and am looking to do my own major servicing outside (100k km) - 3 years old I have no qualms about the usual engine oil and cabin filter change, but as for ATF: 1) How many litres of ATF fluid should I use? Is there any aftermarket ATF that is better than the factory one, or just use factory ATF will do? 2) Do I need to change any auxiliary parts such as the gasket and oil pan etc.? Also, need to check for fan belt? Mine seems perfectly alright, but brakes a bit spongy. I've checked on the brakes it's still pretty thick and have not changed since day one Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
badlammy 6th Gear January 20, 2022 Share January 20, 2022 The latest Cerato fog lights have front/ rear switch? Saw one in KPE tunnel with both switched on. The rear fog is damn irritating. Hope drivers can turn it off if not necessary (i.e. no heavy rain). 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Algergohce Clutched February 3, 2022 Share February 3, 2022 Like the Sonet, seems there is little to talk about on this facelifted model. I traded in my K3 (MY2017) for this facelifted Cerato recently. Been enjoying the much quieter drive and better equipment Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ahtea 3rd Gear February 5, 2022 Share February 5, 2022 7 hours ago, Thecarboy302 said: seems like many are going for Avante instead. Mainly because the Avante is built on a newer platform with a more updated power train. I believe when the Cerato goes for a brand new model change, it will then be able match what the Avante is offering today. By then, the Avante would have "aged" in terms of look unless they go with a new design in their facelift (like the AD Elantra). 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find it odd that C&C decided to not launch the facelift Cerato with the new Smartstream & IVT combo like in the new Avante. Maybe the new Cerato is already in the horizon.

Maybe the new Cerato is already in the horizon. I guess cost could be one important factor. It could also be for marketing reasons that they want to preserve the new power train for the "All New Cerato" which should be due in the next 1-2 years.

Algergohce Clutched February 9, 2022 Share February 9, 2022 @badlammy My experience with these idiots is that they are either blind or stupid. If i warn him/her using high beams from behind, they will become defensive and start playing braking game, hogging etc. If i over take them and use my rear fog lamps, they don't know what we mean.. Its the same as those who have their high beams on all the way.. Only way is to avoid them.. such is the frustration on our roads, IMHO.. 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
yonghf Neutral Newbie March 1, 2022 Share March 1, 2022 Just collected the new Cerato, may I know if there are any recommended battery packs besides those in C&C? The bundled KIA dashcam can only record when engine is running. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
