qristeele wrote:Just a quick question.. How do we verify that our car has been given the System 6 and Tuff Kote treatment? Things like sun visor, can see clearly but such treatments how to know?

Tuffcoat can see by comparing the undercarriage surface with other Forte parked nearby.....should have a very dark brown coating (got some funny smell also)......

System 6 more difficult to see on new car.....need to use yr hand to feel .....should be able to feel different with other Forte parked nearby also

last time have two stickers pasted on real windscreen and warranty cards.......not sure if they still do the same nowadays.....

Ah, ok.. so for both items I will also get warranty cards, eh? Together with the one for RikeCool, right?

Super kanchiong now because collecting car tomorrow and am a first-time noob car owner. Didn't want to appear ignorant lest SE try to con me. *paiseh*

RikeCool confirmed have warranty card.......the other 2 also should have (done on my previous car many years ago).....

Usually by the side of the gas station they will have the "AIR" sign, or something similar, cannot remember.

There usually have a screen u can press the number by either "^" or "v" button.

u press untill the number on the screen says 32 psi.

then over there got a big long hose, unroll and pull it to the side of ur tires. ur tire there got a small black plastic cap, unscrew that. insert the nozzle in. then it will auto pump up to 32psi. If there is too much air, it will auto release also. U no nid to check the screen one. Then when the tire is ready, it will "beep beep beep beep beep...." Pull the thing out, screw back ur cap to the tire and move on and repeat on all other tires.

Hope that helps
