If I recall correctly, you posted a video some time ago showing your open pod filter and the turbo boost sound right?

How much did the modification cost? and can the sound be turned off somehow?
*
Under Rm200 depend on filter. Buy branded open pod filter like k&n or simota ori and 3" piping. Can't turn off la. it's boosted.

Means everytime step on accelerator got that boost sound  brows.gif

Was thinking of modding it to my unit, but worried that the sound might get annoying after awhile lol

Mean everytime you full throttle you will hear "whin" turbo spin sound. and when you let it go, boost sound. Its never annoying, its cool. Can show off to those ah beng car when side by side. brows.gif hahahaha.. Joking.

need help again,

How to set those L/km? Seems pretty confusing
*
Easy, make sure right panel show total km by press odometer stick repeatedly; Total KM > Trip 1 > Trip 2 > Total KM. Then Press odometer stick for 2 second. When left lcd panel blinking, just press it repeatedly until you find it. Another advise, open your manual book. sweat.gif

Also don't forget to warm up your eb since it's turbocharged.Straight start the engine and go will damage the turbo ball bearing.Price of the Turbo is 6K.

Start and let the engine warm up for atleast 7minutes or 10mins.
*
7-10 minute abit too long. If we all not aware, CFE engine got oil - water heat exchanger. Regulates oil temperature in line with the water coolant temperature where they both maintain the same equilibrium temperature. This is good during cold starts when water heats up faster than oil making the engine oil temp heat up as fast as well. Hence better cold starts. Also oil temp won't exceed the water temp as they maintain the same. They heat up and cool together.

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

Regarding the X1R additive, is it forced upon to the customers to buy when doing service intervals?

Looks like it's compulsory to be sold to us. Can we request the SC to NOT sell it to us?
*
Its optional. Me myself never use any additive since 1st services till now and my sc never ask me to add in. Always go for Fully Syn because it resist heat better compare to semi syn(mineral+syn) and mineral oil.. Example I'm using Petronas Syn 3000 which have flash point at 200 celcius. Peace of mind, hope so. thumbup.gif

About the oil sludge have u guys consider oil catch tank for that issue? I mean even if u dun any addictive there r still oil sludge goes into our turbo...
*
I never hear oil catch tank can catch oil sludge. shakehead.gif shakehead.gif
Oil catch tank is to trap blow-by gas from reentering intake manifold.

If u dismantle the air intake hose see the oil sludge around your turbo input. The breather also catch oil fumes which in long run you will see oil sludge build up in the tank.

No?
*
What is “Blow-By” or is it normal for my car to have oil in the intake plumbing?

In your motor, the piston is moving up and down in its cylinder, and the rings on the piston are creating a seal so that when you ignite an air-fuel mixture, that reaction is converted into power. As good a seal as the rings make, they will never be perfect. What this means is that some of that expanding gas will get past the rings, and then it will be present in the crank-case.

First, keep in mind that we are talking about a very small percentage of pressure here (as long as your engine is in good running order), but that pressure still has to go somewhere. For this reason, your car has a Positive Crank-Case Ventilation (or PCV) to release this pressure, and it will rout it back into your intake system.

There are two reasons that this is sent back into the intake, rather than being sent out to atmosphere. The first is that Automobile manufacturers aren’t allowed to emit anything directly to the atmosphere for environmental reasons. The second is that it can actually be advantageous for there to be a slight vacuum present in the crank-case because then there is less on the piston’s down-stroke.

However, because this air comes from the crank-case where there is a lot of oil present, this air usually has some oil vapor present in it. This oil is also referred to as blow-by, and in moderation, it is completely normal.

Yup. As simple as ABC and CBA. dismantle when next services so warranty still intact.

Hi all, EB newbie here. Its my second week driving my White EB. Still contemplating between changing my rims to 17 or 16 since ive read in previous posts that it will void the warranty (specific warranty only on the coil n absorbers?) or totally void the warranty. Thinking of getting a wider 16 with 8jj replacing the ori 6.5 (which saves me a quite a lot coz using back the ori tires)- so so on the look-wise, wont affect much on the performance since the weight will be +- the same as ori.  But..been quoted for such a tempting price for a new sets of 17 tyres and 9jj xxr 527/CV3/Wedssport SA60M - better looking - will affect the performance since it will be heavier and what worries me is voiding the warranty. Some says it will void and some says it wont. Care to really clarify this matter guys?Should i or should i not change to bigger rims.? For  other questions? i will help myself by reading from v1 till v3 of the postings. tq for now.
*
You can use 17" rim but must maintain the same or not more than 3% than original wheel radius . How to check? You can refer here Tire Calculator. Input your original tire size (205/55/16) and new tire size you wanted. If within 3% you are safe from do any stress to GB, drive shaft, brake performance and etc.. About warranty yes it void, refer to any modification from factory original spec. But it subjective to SC you visit. Some will pejam mata. Some if lazy will say you void your warranty. Like mine, stay with one good SC, make some friend and you good to go. thumbup.gif

1. Car gives out funny squeak noise on uneven road, noise from front at first. Now it can be heard from front, rear, left and right. This is the major problem I have right now. I cant tolerate, its loud

2. Funny taktaktak noise comes out from dashboard, not yet start engine, just slot the key in to ACC, noise start to appear. Both front and rear aircond off also got sound. On engine also got that taktaktak noise. Theres no moving mechanical right if the key is at ACC? but got that taktaktak sound. Don't know wheres the source, SC say need to open dashboard.

I scared if they break few dashboard pin/clip during dissemble and assemble, which will make more rattling noise! Not only that, I scared they accidentally scratch the dashboard  yawn.gif  Last service, they lost my service manual book, wtf right? and replace with another service manual book, but its not for exora bold cfe  doh.gif noob sc

3. I don't know whats the part call, its the sponge like material below the black wiper pillar inside the hood near the firewall. I don't know how it got wet, so it start to tear apart. And the mounting hole of that thing is getting bigger and that thing start to fall off.  doh.gif

4. Just happen last week, when I steer to right, and counter steer back to straight. At 2 o'clock, it will give loud "Tak" sound once. Wat de hell

5. Front room lamp bulb always kong. Change the bulb, next day kong again.
Dont know how long need to leave the car....

How come service manual can missing??

Dunno know wanna laugh or cry  rclxub.gif

Overall happy........... but low speed drive  is jerky if below 2k RPM

Too much idling. Go reset average fc memory and it will restart the number to current one.

Have you retried? Maybe some error, or turbo lost pressure.
Makes me want to try mine to confirm...

putramon I think need to modify the reclining mechanism, or just some lapik at the mounting. Let me find out more, and update.

mandrew I ordered the mini version, and I hope it has no problem, especially worried about it getting overheated and hang.

Today check tyre pressure, dropped to 30psi after a month, all 4 tyres.
No wonder the acceleration FC increased by 2L. This car really sensitive to tyre pressure.

Also, do you guys notice the turbo whistling sound when you drive?
In my case, sometimes when I accelerate steadily, the turbo whistle will come and go.

Another tip during uphill driving: If you're stuck behind a lorry, and you're climbing real slow at steady speed, turn on the SAT mode, to improve FC. In my case, at ~40kmh, RPM dropped to 1.6k. When you need to accelerate, then switch off SAT mode.

For highway driving, during steady cruising, SAT mode saves fuel better than CVT.

Update to my experiment with cat-removed exhaust (on my other experiment NA car), normal mileage per tank is 370km. I replaced the extractor to non-cat during half tank mark after 250km, and now the car already at 370km, with another 5% left. Until the next refuel, I will confirm if will change Exora downpipe to non-cat.
*
Love to hear the result of CAT experiment, somesay it can decreasing turbo heat. About tire pressure i use 98% nitrogen air. 3 month only drop 1psi.

Of course will update.
In return, I ask for feedback. Thanks for yours.

For the folks reading this forum, feel free to chime in, otherwise feel like talking to a wall sometimes.

One concern is that there are two O2 sensors, each located before and after the CAT. When the sensors do not detect a change in O2 level between them, it would assume CAT malfunction and trigger CEL. I'll update with more findings.
*
Ok bro. I didn't know that EB come with two O2 sensor.
