Yeap the cvt is noisy when accelerate and stop at traffic jam...but not a big problem
I'm more concern about the oil control valve, malu when ppl ask why can choke like that when idle

Agree with u, we r more concerned abt other failure than the sound it makes.. (although the fan noise
is louder than my diesel engine!!)
When my EB had this problem, stop at the roadside, really felt malu...
Wifey told me she dun have confident in P1 liao.. If happen again she wants to change car liao..

Hi everyone,
Anybody experiencing their EB pulling to the left side and having to slightly tilt the steering 10 degrees to the right in order to maintain straight driving?
please let me know

Thanks

When coming to red traffic light, the sound is like a toy mechanical/electric car slowing down. Very obvious.

is this a design issue or it is supposed to be like this?

i dun seems to have this problem tho. maybe my driving style, or izit my level of tolerance is significantly higher

fr what i read in the previous thread
1. most modern cars r like that, the alignment is not 100% straight
2. newer proton models are known to have problems with the steering rubber boot. u can ask sc to replace, but the problem will come back. i did a quick google search -> link

nevertheless, u can bring ur eb to a tire shop to have it's alignment checked.

Like that one, huh? My 2006 Avanza has this alignment problem since day 1. SC said cannot fix, it is like that. I thought is was BS.

and peugeot 308

More like mechanical sound to me, coz this is the same sound from my manual 4x4 only when going downhill
(25% slope) engaged on 1st gear without stepping on the pedal. But, it won't be as loud as the EB.. Most likely
from the clutch.. I wonder if exora cps hv this noise..

Thanks all,
so Avanza, 308 and EB have alignment problem
God help us all

Same. But on level straight road, let your hands go and the car go straight.

hmm..
seems you have a better deal..
2.8 interest..500 discount..i thought EB premium no discount at all since demand is good

this sound come from cvt..as cvt will adjust the gear with the speed...or maybe the engine braking is automatically turn on...i suggest to ask krisof on proton cvt thread at autoworld forum...for me its ok i get use to it.

Or just turn up the radio volume.

Last week go back to hometown kelantan...alhamdullilah no problem at all
from going to hometown and return back to JB...my car full load with all shopping goods from Thailand and Kelantan...the fuel consumption during going back its ok...as i maintain speed...but on return the fuel consumption high as full load and i speed at LPT Phase 2...at 170km/h i notice the fuel get real calculation go to 18l/100km haha...when reach gambang...distance to empty below 200km with 2 bar...

i also notice the car getting lighter and smooth when odometer over 3000km...cheers

May I ask, from JB to Kelantan:
1. How many kilometer the entire journey?
2. How long does it takes?
3. How's the road condition?
4. Any interesting things to do/see/eat etc?

from jb to kelantan...700km until tanah merah...

i took 10hour with stop...actually u can make 8 hour

road condition ok...but the problem road from (kuantan)jabor to bukit besi(lpt phase2)
