Kurty Supercharged June 22, 2018 Share June 22, 2018 Hi5 Although parts available, the car is not just built to last. My opinion rah... too many issues along the way. Gearbox and compressor being the most sianz. Yeah. My last straw is the CVT gearbox which i sent for overhaul when we decided not to change new car last Nov... unfortunately the mechanic try to save by replacing a salvaged CVT for lesser amount... but end up problematic... then he have to overhaul again. The downtime really inconvenient my family. I got an Elantra. The price now is really good. Can consider if you keen. Price is good and SE is decent, 2 colleagues also buy from him. I can pass ya his contact if u keen. Lol thats sad to hear.. what is your mileage before you scrap? I still thought kimchi gearbox are very reliable, is yours a rare case? Elantra, nice if i'm not wrong, the price is 74k for a bare? your SE is guy, beginning with R or J? Bro Kurty still waiting for the durian to drop la, Not easy for him to find the right durian. durain still too expensive for me.. for now, i can only eat banana and watermelon.. Oh to add... someone actually approach me when i wanna dekit. So eventually sold off to someone with extra few hundred dollars on top of paper thats lucky, whats there to dekit? sound system or seat? ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Familymanz 3rd Gear June 22, 2018 Share June 22, 2018 Looks like it is all CVT has problem or only Latio CVT has problem?Jap swore by the reliability of CVT. Im skeptical after personal experience. Heard of CVT reliability issue back in 2006 when i chose Latio Premium over 4AT (mainly due to claim better FC with CVT and also the really good Alcantara seat). Mainly gearbox has fair share of wear and tear. Just that its more ex to overhaul CVT. Thats why im very sensitive to CVT during testdrive. And SE insist Accent ia 5AT as stated in brochure while i insist its CVT... End up... SE didnt do his homework i know R, J and another lady SE. So far, only J keeps in contact with me as i have referred 4 purchase to him.. 3 were actually from MCF But again, even i know A to Z, i also dont get any special deal.. he still offer me 67,999 for accent Theres a lady that sold accent for 66999 in april expo carshow with lower interest than KMC stated 2.18... Dunno how she manage to do that.... hmmmm ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
