  • Kia Sorento owner and friend Kenneth Sow invited me to check out his 2017-2018 Kia Sorento diesel in the Genting run. It is a very nice and powerful SUV, and is nice to drive. The Sorento is made for family use, and seats 7 people in great comfort.
    Despite its weight, the Sorento did a good job, and the run was quite good except for some tyre screeching, but that was just me trying to maintain a good speed through the bends. Thanks Kenneth, for the ride.
    We also met up with other Sorento owners at Genting, and I made many new friends that day.

    Ive been watching your videos for the past week uncle. Cant believe u can tell the tire needs more pressure just by driving.
    Truly a sifu.

      You can actually feel the tyre folding in when taking the corner. Acquired skill. This is not the first time. I have found cars with too much air, and too little air.

    Me too drive with the push pull method. Singapore driving schools teaches that way. If we cross our hands during turning, we will get minus points.

  • @yewbtang1848

    Thanks Uncle for the steering tips. I always thought hand-over-hand technique meant crossing the hands when turning the steering!

    • @YSKhongDriving
      @YSKhongDriving  4 роки тому

      No worries. The more people learn, the better. Too many people misunderstand the concept. I had one guy lock his hands up and ran out of road trying to turn left into a junction, and would up on the opposite lane. Luckily there were no oncoming cars. You should have heard and seen the shelling he got from me.

      I will have to take the CX8 up the mountain to compare. We did a test on level ground and it was good, but hard to tell at this moment which is better. Anyway this Sorento is the previous model and not the 8-speed.
