I see a lot of people hating on black rims now saying it makes cars look cheap. I feel like they look much better on this blue anyway but not sure if this is just AI and lighting making it look good. What you think? This is not my car but same color.
Edit: Wheels
Anyone change their transmission fluid yet any problems
Hi, got this 2021GT a few months ago and just started having this suspension noise recently. It's barely there in the morning when the car is cold but gets much louder after driving. It's most noticeable on a very slow reverse or forward. I had it at a dealership, Firestone and pep boys, and apparently they can't find anything wrong or hear that noise. So either I'm going crazy and hallucinating 🤣 or hopefully someone can suggest the cause of it.
Thanks!
Hi All,
I figure that some of you (especially the new owners) would appreciate a post listing all of the parts you can buy, vendors you can buy from, how to source using part numbers, etc. If that is something you're interested in us posting and pinning, let us know! I have time to kill. And if you have any further suggestions, please feel free to send them here.
Hey everyone 👋
My wife Chloe recently designed a new grille overlay set for the facelift Forte (MY22-24), so I thought I’d share it here in case anyone’s looking to add a bit more styling to the front end.
They’re designed specifically for the facelift Forte GT grille and are a nice way to add extra red accents or custom styling without removing the grille.
There are 50+ colour options available too - gloss, satin, holographic and a heap of other finishes.
Installation is pretty straightforward as well - just align and apply. She’s also put together installation guides/videos to help.

Happy to answer any questions or help with colour combos 😊
Did my first autocross event yesterday, got 1st in class and 3rd in novice. It felt pretty good, except for the brakes and my ps4 all seasons didn’t hold up quite to my liking. even though you don’t use brakes too much in autocross whenever i had to the pedal would stiffen up, happened for the first few runs then got better. Had a couple elantra n’s out there but not novice and much more modified that were about 8 seconds quicker and only .4 seconds off a gt4rs. It’s always funny that some people don’t even know the forte gt exists.
sorry for the pretty bad camera angle😆
My mods for those curious:

I have been trying to take off my oil filter for about 3 hours and I've tried every trick in the book and it will NOT come off. The housing of the oil filter is pretty much destroyed. Wanted to see if anyone knows any tricks or tips for it. Worst case scenario I will have to take off the oil filter cooler, I would need help with that if anyone can find it knows how to do that. Please help if anyone can!!
I cut my hand pretty bad trying to reach the connector on the charge pipe while trying to uninstall now with my hand I can’t reach down there to unplug it I still need it uninstalled soon and my hand won’t be healed what do you think a shop would charge me to take my intake out to unplug it or any recommendations in the DFW area
Other than that it drives completely fine. in the video i put it into reverse, let go of the gas for a couple seconds and then it jerks and makes that sound as it goes back. what could the issue be?
I also had the dct transmission replaced 10k miles ago

Hello all. I'm looking for advice on good fluids as far as oil and transmission fluid for my 21 Gt. I'm @ 85k right now and am just looking for good fluids for longevity for the car. I'm also looking for small bolt on mods that will help improve the car like BOV and an intercooler as well. I'm starting to look into cosmetics for it as well. Sorry for the long winded post but if there is anyone with any suggestions please let me know. Thanks in advance.

On 5/5 I was rear ended by someone while I was stopped at a red light. Yesterday they told me they would count it as a total loss.
2022 Forte GT will definitely be my most missed car 😭
