Anyone know whether Teana FC is good & the power okay to move a 1.8tonnes vehicle with 2.0l engine capacity?
this one simply goreng izzit? since when teana is 1.8tonnes?
u want to know more about the teana FC go read the teana thread.. RM0.20/km, range 550 (city) to 700 hwy..

better engine and gearbox package
better kitted (leather seats & wheel, etc)
better seats (more supportive, more comfortable and powered)
better safety features (comes together with VSC and TC)

nah.. no way the altis is better than my teana, checked it out before i got the teana.. it;s nice for B+C segment level, but not really close to teana/camry/akod class..

ex-owner of VQ30DE here. u have no idea how much i've spent to keep this engine alive until it fail on me  yawn.gif
oil leaking, ignition problem, plug cable pecah at least 4 pcs, overheated and finally burned for good. maddriver can attest on all these lol.
total spend on engine maintenance alone exceed 5k in the duration of 2 years of ownership.
yea i do understand the car was old (2002 production) and the previous owner did not maintain the car properly (water was already rusty when i got my car. didnt know it coz 2nd hand dealer pour new coolant to cover until i did first service)..  However the good thing is that most of the part i replaced was all original and no third party nor new parts spotted. which means im unlucky owner since the first owner get to enjoy the engine naisly while i have to maintain the engine to enjoy it as well LOL

if the engine already injured internally, hard to blame it as unreliable lor..

but one thing i kennot tahan the VQ engine really drinks.. my 2L seifeilo could only do 400km full tank 8km/L lol.. blink.gif

what cause the "injured internally" i think is the part used?
there was once i had to replace the head gasket coz my newly replaced spark plug got oil stain and tan chong said got leak so ask me to change. then i have to change to another new plugs (plat, rm45 each in tc).. and it got 2 heads alamak.

yea, the fuel consumption also crazy giler. full tank 110 can last 380km max. that translate to about 6.3km/l doh.gif
then the roadtax also giler high RM2100 but the power not very satisfying coz its just a conventional V6 without valve timing. not so refined.
im surprised this engine got award few years in a row in its golden days.
actually that is what motivate me into getting the VQ engine lol tongue.gif

the newer VQ dem chun ler.. especially with Xtronic.

dat day i tested the 370GT lagi chun.. with the 37HR engine inside..

new VQ in passenger car got what improvement ah?
still no vvt lol. i guess the fuel consumption equally bad with old CQ. maybe better abit coz xtronic gearbox..


Added on October 24, 2011, 9:39 pmim waiting for teana xtronic gearbox so that i can transplant to my car! lol

i think improvement is when mated to the xtronic.. for passenger car and even the new elgrand which i tested few mths back.
