Just got my EB Premium (white) last week. Waiting for first service this monday. My family really love this car, spacious and comfy. The driving is smooth and easily can reach high speed after stop at traffic light. The only cons I can think off is its FC, 12L/km for the first refill (town driving and traffic jam) and it signal and lamp level  . I always ter'open the wiper when I mean to give the signal because already use to have signal level at my right hand in my old car.

QUOTE(ramen241 @ Jul 8 2013, 11:42 PM) Pls add me in to the owner list...Im officially in da clubb!!!Got my exora bold premium last friday!!!! No major complaint so far..wheel out of alignment but the service centre promiss to do it for free. Havent send the car yet tough. Overall satisfied. Interior quality is so so....seats are hard...but what is there to complain...its cheaper compare to other mpv with similar size and with rear air cond blower....  Also got alignment problem. Didn't feel the problem till I drove almost 1k (when I got my EB the odo already 300km). When to service center for 1k service and mention about the alignment. Sadly, I still need to pay Rm50 for the alignment. When I ask why I still need to pay because the alignment problem already there when I bought it, he said I should mention to the Sales Agent and the Sales Agent suppose to do the alignment.  May be my mistake. I thought the 1000 km service was for me to test the car.

QUOTE(martianl @ Jul 17 2013, 05:18 PM) Hi column3. Mind sharing where you bought yours? It's bold premium? In Klang Valley area you can get 4k+ rebates quite commonly. Most place except KL, only RM2k discount even one place I ask only give RM1k. Standard RM2k. If can get RM4k, that usually discount from agent commission. My EB also only get RM2k discount.

QUOTE(imin @ Jul 24 2013, 03:49 PM) ermm.. how do we see our L/km? I can only see the odo. Or only EB Premium has the capability to display the average L/km? Press and hold the stick/button (I don't know what it call the button you usually press to reset the ODO) a few second till the left display blinking. Then release. Press a few times till you get your average L/KM. If I'm not mistake Total time>Avergae FC (L/KM) > Current FC > Total time. If you not hold the button a few second but just press it, it will only change the right display. ODO > Trip A > Trip > ODO.

QUOTE(kelvink78 @ Jul 31 2013, 10:07 AM) Don't think it will affect the view (depends on the darkness %) but was told by the tinting shop that double tinting will void the warrenty given to the original tint. Anyway, i've fitted black tint on top of the factory tint on the third back windows. Planning to do like you, how much it cost?

QUOTE(ohde @ Aug 26 2013, 11:38 AM) yup, i think it's best value among the price range, suit my needs. Have not test drive yet  based on feedback, the CFE improves a lot. Hope it won't disappoint me. May i know if full load (7-8 ppl), it is the CFE engine able to cope up ?  Last hari raya, I fitted 5 adult and 4 children inside EB, no problem with engine pick up. Actually, I can't feel any difference while on normal road (no hill climbing). Still easily overtake other car.

QUOTE(ohde @ Aug 26 2013, 02:30 PM) thanks for the sharing but i have the concern for hill climbing, as i always full loaded with students and up hill send them to school and back... so the power for up hill is very very important. Should be no problem. How steep is the hill? Climbing cameron highland (gua musang-spg pulai) also no problem with 2 adult and 2 children with full of bags.

QUOTE(mivecwira @ Aug 26 2013, 10:44 PM) Guys..need ur wise opinion here, currently confirm and will be buy exora cfe soon..now in dilemma whether to take either premium and standard... Family growing bigger and lot of commitment need to be settle each month..different RM11k-will be worth for the accessories between both variant? I use EB Premium. Reverse camera really help a lot and auto cruise is useful when you're driving on highway. So it depend either you can live with these 2 or not. Actually I was also thought either to take Standard or Premium but because I have not much cash in hand to add other accessories like reverse camera and I really want the auto cruise function, I take EB Premium. BTW, since EB Premium have reverse camera, I have not problem to do reverse parking but got problem with the front bumper, cant see  .

QUOTE(sKypRiNcE734 @ Aug 30 2013, 10:20 PM) You can use it whenever you want  .Its your wish to use it. S.A.T give the car more power..No drag while accerating.Can feel the car power.. I thought S.A.T. only mimicking normal auto transmission feels. Because EB use CVT, we don't feel gear changing like normal auto. Or I'm wrong?

QUOTE(sKypRiNcE734 @ Aug 31 2013, 09:22 AM) Your EB is CVT3 right?My EB CFE can feel gear change and It goes faster than normal. You mean when using S.A.T? When using CVT which is continuous, you are not suppose to feel the gear shift because CVT don't use normal gear set. Instead it use some sort of pulley shaped like a pair of opposing cones. You feel S.A.T make your EB more power because like normal gear, the car slow down a bit and shift to higher gear (ratio). Because it shift quickly to higher gear, you feel the thrust. While for CVT, it slowly change the ratio but the end result almost the same.

QUOTE(eikan @ Sep 3 2013, 10:25 AM) Wondering the same thing  My XP Shell do save more overall .. maybe its just my feeling but base on rough observation between Shell, Petronas, Petron, Caltex... Shell more 'smooth' and gain a bit more distance. Although i read somewhere all minyak the same except color.. but bleh.. i still put Shell as first option. Anyway once the indicator below 50km distance left at meter, it show "--" right? isist realy ~50km distance/fuel left? or just make you gelabah cari petrol station?
I think the meter only an estimation base on your previous FC. I also want to know, if it come to 0km, how much far we can go?

QUOTE(chulaisn @ Sep 3 2013, 05:35 PM) if display set to ' distance to empty' , when reach '0', the display will just flash and the fuel low light comes on. ~ 35 - 40km. When I refilled, the tank took up 53L! (capacity:55L), too close for comfort. Thank you. If 35km-40km in non-traffic road, can find nearest station. But if highway
