I booked at $86,999, there was a $2,000 interest rebate but I took guaranteed COE so netted off. I had about $1,000 over-trade for my existing vehicle. $3,000 servicing credits. Freebies were 2 channel car cam, solar films, car mats, sun shades and boot tray.

Congratulations on your purchase, did they promote the min 50k loan?

Hello,

 

My radio on the SX has NO reception at times.

Especially bad along Keppel thru ECP to Changi.

Brought this up on the first service appt; CnC reset the head unit but problem persists.

 

Note that local model Cerato DO NOT have antennas!

 

Anyone had this problem?

That’s DIY. About 40$ for a small bottle, professional product. Deep clean your car, use gloves to apply, wait 15 min and buff. It’s much easier with a rotary pad but it’s relatively easy to work by hand. It takes me 1h for each coat, two coats recommended with a 12h interval.

 

You get the sealed, super gloss finish and easy to clean surface for about 6 months. The downsides is 6 month rather than 12, and it only works on paint (don’t try to put it on plastic surfaces). Upside is the bottle can last for at least 5 to 8 times

The minimum was 40K. Save 10K interest.

Thanks for your reply, I guess C&C allowed different sales person to mix and match different deals e.g. min loan amount, min loan years etc.

sorry a little noob, what's TPMS?

A tire-pressure monitoring system (TPMS) is an electronic system designed to monitor the air pressure inside the pneumatic tires on various types of vehicles. TPMS report real-time tire-pressure information to the driver of the vehicle, either via a gauge, a pictogram display, or a simple low-pressure warning light.

Turbocharged

Both are similar, whether it's diamond, sapphire, glass or ceramic. It's just the term used.

Anyone can advise on how to utilizing the 2k service credits?

From a member 1 page before. This is good.

 

“you can use your 3k service credits for

1km 10km 20km 30km 40km servicing package @ $1170

PPS @ $210 (50% disc)

for the rest of the credits, you can use for 50km to 80km servicing package.

you should left $400 for wear and tear spare parts.”

no le.. the service package on C&C website specified The 2-year Kia Care Service Plan comes with 4 comprehensive servicing visits (2 x Lubrication, 1 x Maintenance and 1 x Major).. so i presume 1km and 10km is under 2 x lubrication..20km is maintenance.. and then 40km is major..30km is oso classified as lubrication service under their website..

You can see from the attached image in my previous post. It monitors the tire's pressure and temperature.

Not true. Cerato do have Antenna. It is built in at the rear windscreen. It look like those heating element on the windscreen. That's why the reception is bad for SG. But if in Malaysia, the reception is better due to lesser high-rise building.
