Does the trip computer shows "instant fuel economy"? If it does, anyone checked the reading between 80-90kph?
Does anyone know if the GPS unit support TMC? If it does, how to activate it? I saw the model is ES-1BHD_SF_KIA.
Hi, by omitting _KIA from the model number, it lead me me Galatico website... browse through the list, you will find
ES-1BHD_SF model from the list

Has anyone driven the K3 on the NSHW?
Hows the road holding at 110-120 km/h?
Or anyone have tried to go faster?
Personally i like the k3.... But the altis n the city also caught my attention....
So now my only concern is how it performs at the mesian highway coz i usually drive up?
Thank u in advance
I would said,the suspension,a tad too soft,if the road is flat,still fine,try 110km/h on PIE with 4 persons on board,hit a bump before a flyover,the rear felt "Unsettle"...Change to a harder shock absorber if you going very high speed.

No instant, only average.Does the trip computer shows "instant fuel economy"? If it does, anyone checked the reading between 80-90kph?
Reminds me when I was out of my mind driving 140kmh.. with a Kangoo.. felt like it's gonna take off.. (or rather 'jump off' like a kangaroo).Didn't go beyond 140km/h since then...

�
From paying balance to collection of your car should not be more than 2 weeks... some less than a week if quick enough. You should be fine.
If your SE told you to pay balance, then your car is already in Singapore�
�
Just give you some ideas what my SE told me.
�
1 day - Paid balance
2 days - Bank Cheque clearance, insurance & loan stuff final process
2 days - Register car
�
This is the fastest scenario :)

And Congrats�

Heh heh. Just collected my car at 6.30pm today. Last thursday settled payment, today collect.Drive around using sport mode for the steering, not bad as I am used to heavy car.Going over hump was smooth. Too bad not much opportunity to check. Maybe tomorrow.
11 October 2014 - 01:52 AMPassimThe price went up by S$12K for EX and S$10K for SX!
I been waiting for the last few months for the price to drop to S$100,000 for SX so that I can book but looks like it so going to be a long wait.
What to do... just continue to rely on my BMW - Bus MRT Walk�

They used to have two columns - the one before "smart dollars" whereby you get some discounts for trading in your car at low price for an "overtrade" of 8K then.
�
Now they complicate things by giving you up to 2K for your used car and up the interest rate from 2.28 to 2.6 but give you further discount (still worth it)
�
If you have a car to trade in to them, you can get about 13k discount.
�
At 110, you have other choices like Altis, Sylphy, Mz3, Subaru, to name a few.

Haha... it is not silly. My SE tell told me the payment methods (cheque) but I still thick face ask can credit cards or not (lol... of course cannot).
�
So down payment is by CHEQUE,
Insurance can be Credit card (6-months / 12-months 0% interest�instalment available) - I think UOB/DBS/POSB.. need to check your SE

If you got not cheque service, ask your friends to help or go to bank to issue cashier order (with a fees)

I don't think they will void your warranty. They will probably tell you they will not be responsible for function of the HU if you update it elsewhere... you need to pay to fix if there's a problem... simple but effective disclaimer...

For the Navigation, the user friendliness is acceptable for me but for now, there is one little complain is that when driving into Malaysia, the maps need to manually select to west malaysia maps (not auto switch). Just told my SE just now when I meet him to collect my 3M car mats. Don't ask. I paying for the mat, not free.. Hehe. The original mats is attracting dust and sands bits.
Okay, back to Navigation. Software by Galatico. Support TMC (but no license comes with it). As mention by Cmlee, my SE told me Updating cost about 100+. I know the Navigation software is run from SD card, but our HU do not have SD card slots expose. Need to find out. If your are able to find where is the SD Card is, the updating ourself should not be a problem. I saw the Malaysian forum (they have same HU like ours, but software may not by Eurostyle), someone able to change the Navigation software to Papago :)
Still no time to take my car pictures, maybe tomorrow morning before drive to work. :)Maybe we can wait for Hybridcar share with us.... I would like to know too. If we do so, will this affect our warranty ?

I've no complain over the user friendliness of the navigation becoz i was using Galatico software with my GPS unit last time also. It's the HU in general. Don't display song names while playing audio files from mp3 CD... Can't (or maybe don't know how) to reorg the radio stations... Difficulty in selecting a range of mp3 to play from my USB etc.
�
I thought we have a SDCard slot at the right side of the DVD/CD slot, but was told by SE not to touch... :( Other than SD Card, I think should be able to load new s/w or map via the USB drive. However, may need the .exe file from Galatico or KIA. Current Navigator Path is set to \Storage Card\NaviQ_ES_1BHD_SF_KIA.exe

Agree... they really just talk about $$. After, the maps update comes from Galatico. Anyway, hardly use the nagivation for SG roads. More for Malaysia roads when required.

I thought we have a SDCard slot at the right side of the DVD/CD slot, but was told by SE not to touch... :( Other than SD Card, I think should be able to load new s/w or map via the USB drive. However, may need the .exe file from Galatico or KIA. Current Navigator Path is set to \Storage Card\NaviQ_ES_1BHD_SF_KIA.exe
�
Agree... they really just talk about $$. After, the maps update comes from Galatico. Anyway, hardly use the nagivation for SG roads. More for Malaysia roads when required.
�
So Hybridcar, have u got ur DVR fixed? =)
�
Wonder what will happen if I put in the SD Card that's used on portable GPS system... ??? Maybe cannot load only...
�Thanks for your advice!! I think the best will be asking bank to issue cheque for me...
�
Me too, was asked to pay the balance instead of doing a contra of my trade in vehicle... man... /\$$/\

14 October 2014 - 10:25 PMsinkieThanks for the answer. So beside engine oil what else need to be change at 1000km. And after the 1000km is it just follow normal servicing at every 10000km? Btw is the 1000 km servicing cheaper ?
15 October 2014 - 12:32 AMPassimThey used to have two columns - the one before "smart dollars" whereby you get some discounts for trading in your car at low price for an "overtrade" of 8K then.
�
Now they complicate things by giving you up to 2K for your used car and up the interest rate from 2.28 to 2.6 but give you further discount (still worth it)
�
If you have a car to trade in to them, you can get about 13k discount.
�
At 110, you have other choices like Altis, Sylphy, Mz3, Subaru, to name a few.
�
�
Lower selling price means lower amount require for 40% downpayment which means easier to buy
�
Really, C&C should just lower selling price instead of having this complicated discount system which ultimately does not lower the selling price�
15 October 2014 - 11:00 AMHybridcarJust got my car today very happy?
btw can i deactive the drl? I forgot to ask my se hahaha...�

Kia will give you a lots of booklet, brochure when you collecting your car.. including servicing information at each interval. I did not really read through it... too much. Probably don't bother to read until the servicing time.

Hey Hybridcar, how's the interface on the HU like? Never played with HU with GPS before...
�
Wonder what will happen if I put in the SD Card that's used on portable GPS system... ??? Maybe cannot load only...
��
HU display was okay, not the sharpest resolution, especially when we are seeing too much very high resolution screen on smartphone and tablets. But I found the lady's guidance (Navigation software) is rather soft. It is already set to the highest.
�
But I love the Bluetooth connection to my phone though.. The voice crispy clear..
But making call (browse the phonebook) not the easiest. Seems like can only browse using touchscreen. But no the up/down button on the steering. Checking with my SE..
�
I'm still trying to figure out the where�is the SD card slot located.. LOL.. �.
I checked Malaysian forum on K3, someone manage to change the navigation software to Papago. But not going to do anything at the moment.
�my is skp plate but color is snow white pearl?�
my area is Bt Batok... that blue SKP is 16xx... much earlier than mine :)
�
Never seen it before until yesterday

Just another marketing strategy for them... agree with you, they may just get more sales with the discount factored in showing a lower nett selling price...

Don't think they will change anything besides the engine oil, oil filter and maybe the oil drain plug gasket... i believe at 1000km, they may just use mineral oil again if the next service is 5000km... no experience with Kia... some bros just pay for synthetic oil, that's what i did last time... but to buy from AD, going to be expensive... you buy your own oil, they give you that frowning look and charge u some service charge to put in your own oil ?!?!? I heard...
�Let them do the first few services as anything wrong with the car, they will have to replace it foc... after that, its your choice to go out and service 10K and 30K but at least do the major like 20k and 40k once a year with them just in case they find fault with the warranty issue...
15 October 2014 - 03:57 PMHybridcarJust to check with those who just collected their K3.
�
When you do reversing your car, the rear camera will activate. Does yours have 'red-yellow-green' guidance box shown on screen?
�
THanks

C&C gave 1k for services. You can use to offset for the first 2 services at least. So first 1000, then 5000 or every 4 months.

I saw one advert, they offer 14k now if you trade in. Come to think of it, by taking the 13k, the price was quoted at list price. The 60% loan over the list price, make us pays a higher interest. Siong argh!!

The cable for my dash camera is hidden except for the small portion from the top (or ceiling) to the cameras, both front and bad. Went to a shop to have it installed for me.

Will be going for my 1000km servicing tomorrow at Ubi.
�
Don't know if they will make any comments... coz already changed the horn, install DVR with constant power (tapping from fuse box), change to LED lights for the map light and connect a voltmeter to check on voltage.

My SE told me as long as no wire cutting installation.. should be ok.

I think I will send in for 1000km servicing next week at Ubi as well, nearer to my office. Let me know your experience there and took how long after to finish the job.

Thks bro! U r spot on SKP85xx...no jump really fast and thanks for advise.
17 October 2014 - 08:08 PMkopitalkTried Papago just now but personally I think the stock is much better in terms of feature. Updated map is available by MfM. I guess the SLA one need to pay... The only disappointment is that the hardware doesn't support TMC even though the software does. Maybe anyone has a work around?
