Hi, its been 1 month from my last visit. Any great news about Exora? I hear some news about changing new radiator for CFE model? Anyone can confirm this?
*
my last visit to SC was last month for my 35K service. the SC did mention changing something, but not the radiator. it's the turbo hose to the radiator and some fuel pump hose. if i'm not mistaken there's three items, and it's implicated for the 1st batch only. mine's in the list.
what the SC told me, if any BOLD come in, firstly they will check the batch number, and automatically make the order for this items if it's in the record. under warranty. instruction from HQ. at present my hoses are still reliable. they just want to up great the quality. nod.gif

The only 2 remaining rebadges in Proton's lineup at the moment are the Inspira and the Perdana 2nd gen.
Exora is 100% original Proton smile.gif

That's because of disk brakes and not drum..Your wira rear is using drum.exora disc..I have the same..my sis forgot to put the handbrake down and driving the car so fast and she never notice the hand break icon in the meter also..I asked the club and they said its because our Exora using disc brakes..wira drum.disc brakes no grip with handbrake,drum brakes got..
*
hmm.gif i don't think these matter. must be some mechanical problem. my handbrake the maximum it's stop at three clicks, the most four, on a very stiff slope, depends, even it's hard to pull until four, and the car completely stop. for normal slope, stopping at traffic light or during idling, one or two click will do, with gear at N.

In my experience, when I engage the gear to D or R, I'll wait for a while before pressing the pedal. The moment I feel the clutch engage, only then I press.

If I don't wait, there would be irregularity with the power transmission. Sometimes, I'd have to press to a higher RPM as if there is no pressure to the clutch.

So far, my 2013 unit haven't shown me the CVT light.

Keep in mind, this CVT has wiring harness to the ECU. The CVT and the ECU 'talks' to each other, mainly to maintain the peak torque according to the CVT limit. This enables the car to accelerate linearly at 2k RPM, all the way until CVT ratio reaches its limit before 'allowing' the RPM to rise. But, of course, if you accelerate harder, the CVT will allow the car to accelerate at higher RPM.
*
actually this is the better way how to treat the CVT. orang cakap, ini CVT ade skit manje.
i practiced this from day one engaged the gear. let the car moved freely first, then only press the pedal to about 2000RPM. after getting the momentum, then only played it as usual. in fact in R, on even road, seldom press the pedal. just controlled the brake and let it rolled by itself .
my 1st batch BOLD still in perfect condition. thumbup.gif

WOW that pretty low FC!! jelly  rclxms.gif

Recently did 30k service (RM400 includes other fix), did requesting latest ECU firmware (2 day required).
So far so good.. more responsive, haven't tried long distance travel

Did ask about radiator/turbohose/fuelpumphose (refer to prev complaint by others owner).... they said they wont change if no issue  shakehead.gif ...they said it happen to old batch , my bacth 2013 shouldnt have problem... (worry)

My only issue atm ...when driving the car 'feel' tend to go left  (hand off steering) .
Dont think alignment/balancing issue ...drive laju2 no gegar...already 3 times doing alignment/balancing.. so truely dunno why. Maybe tyre need to change? or my steel rim berat sebelah?  doh.gif

Other than that im very satisfy with my Exora  rclxms.gif
*
yeah, those hoses implicate to the 1st batches only, and mine's on the list. after that they already upgrade the quality. so not to worry.nod.gif

Not missed out. Any car absorber mount are just having 2 or 3 screws only, for exora absrober mount are 3 screws type (both left and right). The other one screw is for left hand-hand-drive car (export) to mount something that was use at the right-hand-drive. If im not mistaken the brake pump fluid reservoir. Since our car is right hand drive, so there is nothing to mount on the left absorber mount top, that is why they're not putting any nut.

Buy it,take to SC and ask them to install the EVP for RM1.6K.2013 model has brake issues until my sis almost hit another car at speed of 20km/h.
*
how come. i assumed latest version should not have all those problems.
people always says, don't buy the 1st version, coz its an experimental model.
what i read here, not all, but still not a good result indeed.
mine's the very 1st version(2011), or maybe my luck, free from all those serious issues that some of our friends mentioned here. hmm.gif

They will not recall la..too proud to do so..

i think you mis-judged something here. they did that indeed.
my 1st batch(2011) BOLD was recalled once to replaced some part due to quality issues on october 2012.
the 2nd notification was given during my 35000KM service on july 2014.
the SC ordered the parts and i'm going to replace it on my 40000KM visit. nod.gif

Tomorrow going to Proton 3S centre to check out the new Iriz, probably will enquire their staff about whether can arrange for radiator change for my EB.
My next service for the EB is due in another 1 months+. Hopefully can smile.gif

The guy I asked said that as long as your EB is under warranty, there should be no problem getting the warranty claim for the radiator.

I'll send my EB in for the warranty claim when I send in for my 10k km service next month

wow. now i'm getting scared. sad.gif
checked my 1st batch EB, seems ok. sweat.gif
