Just got the problem from my EB after 12k:
1. Engine mati during idling... (with aircond on) 2. Engine feels want to mati / jerking... especially on traffic jam... (stop and go) 3. Sometimes need to crank longger / need to press gas padel during cold start. 4. Unable to open the Fuel Cover (betul ker??).... Need to cungkil the fuel door. Lastly need to send to SC for checking all those problem... Is is Mutiara Damansara SC ok... Coz that the nearest Big SC at my area Sungai Buloh... |

QUOTE(Turbocrazy @ Aug 25 2012, 09:16 AM) 2die4 dude, Sorry to know that yr EB are having such a problem.. Mine is also having the same symptom as yours for #1 & #2. thank bro... will try to grounding based on ur setup...My OCV valve already changed twice and my CFE is the 1st batch (January batch). Mileage juz passed 9k.. After the second OCV changed, my EB was running fine for about 1.5k km mileage, then the "engine mati" symptom came back once a while... Fortunately, akchang dude reminds me on the grounding project which I had done on my ex Toyota SEG years back.. Now, I had it DIY on my CFE for 2 weeks already.. As usual, I did 5 important points grounding, which consists :- *2 points on the body - (important coz proton only did 1 grounding, its mounted to the body, in between the body & ground wire, there's paint, so i don't know how good the existing grounding are.) *1 point to the alternator - (important, coz alternator is a generator which generate current to the battery.) *1 point to the engine - (important, whole engine is sitting on the rubber engine mounting & high current runs to the spark plugs, so, I dun know how good is the grounding there also) *1 point on the gearbox - (in between gearbox and the engine, there's a gasket, we dun know how good also) This is my 2 weeks findings:- 1) Smoother engine - although slight jerking is still there, but has improved. It could be the Punch CVT gearbox character is like that.. 2) So far no engine stalls - could be too early to confirm this, need more time to test. 3) Air-con fan - can feel the efficiency of the fan has improved - slight improvement. 4) Radio reception - slight improved 5) Headlamp light - slight brightness improved 6) Battery - my ex ride T.SEG battery has longer lifespan, although sound system been upgrade with amplifiers, so not sure about our EB.. just need to ask... all your grounding connected to battery... means that: 1. battery to body 2. battery to alternator 3. battery to engine 4. battery to gearbox This post has been edited by 2die4: Aug 27 2012, 05:13 PM |

QUOTE(Turbocrazy @ Aug 29 2012, 02:59 AM) bro klate, honestly i dun know if this is what proton has overlook on these.. But if u hv yr Toyota Unser grounding done like this, u will also enjoy the different.. I just ordered VS & Grounding Wire from one of the forumer... will try to DIY it this weekend if got time...My evaluation done is base on the past 2 weeks which was honestly written to u guys & on the third week, my EB is in KL & I'm still in Taipei enjoying the food n scenery 2die4 dude, frankly i dun know if proton kacau or not, if they kacau i also will not remove it, coz this r arguable, its not for any high performance racing, but to help stablilizing the overall circuitry performance.. BTW... this morning my EB need to crank 3 time before the engine get started... Last week already go to Mutiara Damansara SC, the mechanic there already test drive and diagnosed it... unfortunately, he said there is no problem with my engine... Mech said if it happen again, need to send to them for Technical Reports.... FYI, not sure why but the jerking and engine feels want to "mati" during idling not happens since last week... |

been trying to find the symptom why sometimes my cars feels jerking last week.... not sure its true or not...
From my last 2 days observation, when i on both aircond (front & rear) on number 2 speed... i feels sometimes a bit jerking on running and rpm not stable during idling (up and down) and engine feels like to die off... If my EB unable to start during first crank, it makes higher chance to feels the jerking... will install the grounding once visit SC... need SC to analyzed my EB first... |

QUOTE(neo1point3 @ Sep 3 2012, 04:22 PM) After 5 months own this EB with 11000km done, the only problem is the oil control valve. When idling got a jerk like engine misfiring and cause the rpm shoot up 200rpm and then back to normal. Rattling sound start to appear already when hard acceleration from zero, but it's tolerateable. When you love something, you will ignore the flaws. I love my EB any problem occurs within warranty period, i just visit SC to settle... This post has been edited by 2die4: Sep 3 2012, 04:40 PM |

QUOTE(Pin Jun @ Sep 5 2012, 09:44 PM) Dear all sifu, Only on point No 1... rest never...It seems that the grounding has yielded quite a number of benefits. Anyone know of any shops that can perform grounding for ppl who can't do DIY like me? Please do recommend... Also, did anyone experience some of the problems below on their Exora Bold: 1) After car wash, the disc break seems to lock up and the next morning when you first move your car, there is a loud noise on your wheel. It only happens during initial move. After that is ok. 2) Early in the morning when the engine and vehicle is still cold, there is a weird sound coming from the back suspension i suspect, when you are taking 90deg corner (although at a very low speed. E.g. coming out from your house compound) 3) Front fog lamp broken due to overheated (actually I am not sure if it was due to overheated or got hit by a stone) - but why would you want to install a glass fog lamp at those location. Should have use plastic instead. 4) Wiper seems to stuck when you reduce the wiper speed FYI my EB is about 1 month old and have traveled about 4000km. TQ Added on September 5, 2012, 9:46 pm I have done sierra glow glass coating on my EB in Subang. It cost me RM950 for the job. Since the coating is only 1 week old, so it is still too early to comment on the quality, durability, etc... will share more as time progresses |

QUOTE(leongsem @ Oct 11 2012, 08:26 AM) Now they change their policy is it apply to all exora existing owners (3 + 2 years) or for new buyers only...http://www.proton-edar.com.my/After-Sales/...d-warranty.aspx just want to know what is included for the warranty thanks shall it apply to existing owners, i think proton should provide us some letters informing on the extended warranty period. coz during i bought the CFE on Feb 2012, proton only offers 3 years... for me i if confirm 3 + 2 years, i not sure after 3rd year im still going to Proton SC... Parts & Labor Charges is too much... espcially when start changing Spark Plug... |
