Engine jerking /engine died - order sc to upgrade the latest ECU software, and CVT / gearbox too. if still jerking .. ask to change OCV.

my gawd. meaning for every RM70, around 250-290km only. quite petrol consume eh, this turbo engine. how about the previous cps?

QUOTE(YouDontKnowMyName @ Mar 26 2014, 02:53 PM)
I usually average around 8.5km/L for 100% city drive

Pretty reasonable to me considering it's power. Compared to Innova's 10km/L but very underpowered.

you mean innova 2.0L engine have better mileage? can go up to 10km? are you a driver for both cfe and innova?

I own an Exora Bold CFE myself.

The Innova's FC stats I obtained it from fuelly.com (http://www.fuelly.com/car/toyota/innova/2012)
The average fuel consumption stats are submitted by multiple owners over a period of time.

It's not a reliable way of gauging fuel consumptions between cars, but I just used it for comparison sake smile.gif

When people ask me about FC, i always give the worst case scenario...hence, 7-8km/litre

Personally i get 8.5km/litre on average in city

i see. reason im asking because the roads that you use and the driving patterns that you have different compare to every one of us. hence if you've drive both, then easier to make a comparison.

btw what do you mean by innova underpower? 2.0L still underpower?

i see. then not so bad if you can hit around 300km for rm70 petrol. currently driving myvi and rm70 i can hit up to 400km.

I have a friend of mine who once I let him have a go in my Exora, his feedback was that the Exora is very powerful compared to his mom's Innova (he often drives his mom's Innova).

According to him, the Innova requires hard revving for it to accelerate decently. Whereas for the exora, once the turbo kicks in, all the acceleration power is there when you need it.

Since then, he constantly complains about his mom's Innova being underpowered and how he wishes he could turbocharge it laugh.gif

Moreover, on paper (the specs) the Innova IS underpowered.
Based on the calculations of the engine output figures (Horsepower, torque), and the kerb weight of the Innova.

The exora may not be the most powerful MPV around, but thanks to the 1.6 turbo engine, it's definitely one of the better performing MPVs.
The Innova doesn't have much torque despite being a 2.0 in order to lug around the massive weight of the car (due to the engine being naturally aspirated, as opposed to a turbo engine which has lots of torque)

Torque is very important to an MPV, just like how it is to a pickup truck nod.gif

Myvi small and light ma. The engine doesn't need to work as hard to get it moving laugh.gif

Welcome to my club biggrin.gif
I had this similar problem...

My ride is Jun 2012 model and initially it had this jerking problem (and once in a while in slow driving, mostly in traffic jams, could feel like a big gear slip sort of feeling, eventhough this is gearless sad.gif ), and they changed the OCV for me but as the problem persists, they reflashed the ECU and TCU and the problem got resolved.
Then, exactly one year later the same problem started again so I had to bring it back and got resoled after they reflashed (or updated again) the ECU.

My car is having lot of electronic fittings as I changed the whole Alarm system to 'Easycar' which comes with the Keyless and push button start etc, and Auto Wiper, Auto light etc... So always when checks for error codes, it shows Immobilizer errors which SC always complains icon_rolleyes.gif, so I thought that the ECU updates somehow have got reset due to some overwriting from one of my additional fittings. Anyway the SC in Singapore is kind enough to do the update free for me.

After the updates, the jerking is gone but still have some issues if I Reverse and forward a few times in fast speed..... which I can bear notworthy.gif

I don't think it is Exora SV, we already have Exora Bold Standard

I can see Chrome lining at the rear, rear view cam, rear fog lamp, and spoiler, I doubt 'SV' will equipped with these

Furthermore, this is old picture. I saw it in 2013, hence the CFE emblem instead of 'Turbo'. My guess this is overseas spec because rear fog lamp is a must for them

Mine is march 2012 ride..was having same engine jerking issue, got the OCV c/w new sets of cylinder head changed and was running okay after that.
The engine was running okay for a year plus, then after a while the jerking problem comes back.
Yes, had the ECU/TCU reflashed (and guess what, I got it reflashed for 3 x)

Till the SC tech. advise me to allow some few moment before we shift the gear. In another words, try not to select Reverse/Forward in fast mode. I do practicing on the shifting and the engine react smoothly and think because of the Gearbox characteristic are such in which requires these. I was on Petronas all the way until they ask me try pumping in variant fuel brand as a change. Actually im experiencing some result during cold start. Well, im not sure how is the fuel quality at your side but no harm trying.

btw guys, when you purchase the exora CFE, what kind of rebates the sales person give you?

I'm quite keen on Exora CFE Standard version. I ask the sales rep to include for me a reverse camera, fog lamp at the front, and the door visor. she told me she will rebates for me RM800, but those accessories going to cost me RM1k. so in return, I just need to top up RM200.

The promo for Exora so little? Last year my family bought MyVi and I got close to RM1.5k rebates.

i see, then probably you are right then. when i test drive exora and driving uphill, it felt powerful and no lagging (i dont need to over press the fuel pedal). but the engine noise is really loud (especially i compare to those peugeot turbo engine) but i guess it's a wrong comparison since the price nearly double what proton cost us right. so far are you happy with exora? any problems faced? How much you bought?

I bought it when they were having year end sales last year, so I guess the discounts I got were good.

So far up to now of owning the EB (4 months already), I'm overall very satisfied with it. No problems so far.
The turbo power is what puts a smile on my face everytime brows.gif
