sKypRiNcE734Mine 26k km mileage. It has low level of carbon and still can see bare metal on the inside of the two exhaust tail pipes. Outside is clean, not having that oil ring like yours. yawn.gif

Sorry phone low batt can't use flash now... maybe later. tongue.gif

If it makes any difference, mine during warm up in the morning will have water vapor, kinda like white smoke coming out.

Remember i said proton wanted to change the gearbox for my eb.they asked me t use it first for now.

The rear mirror proton said they can't claim warranty as it's not covered.but when i check with proton HQ they say its covered.so for next service my dad is sending the car to his friend at Shah alam,he said his friend will claim warranty and fix everything.for the gearbox proton said they have no idea and can't solve the prob untill now.everday start car cvt light will come on..my phone also full of it already -,-.haizz.

Btw I checked K-II rim which looks exactly like Vossen cv5 precision,
The guy is giving me the rim + burma(or i dont know what tire under continental brand) for 2050 Siap trade in old tire and rim.my EB now very dangeroes to drive while raining..4 tires Sudah Botak habis..mileage also only 30k..Hmm.worth it Ah the price?

Do you mean side mirror? Or, what rear mirror you're referring to?

For the CVT, don't they order new set and swap? Why wasting your time like this? I'd be pissed.

Set aside RM300 for each tire that you're going to need, means he's selling the rims at ~850? Checked the KII website, www_k2_my, seems like low end website with not much information. Other than that, no experience with any aftermarket rims. I think stock rims are good enough for me. That extra money can put to better use.
*
The interior mirror bro,inside the car one..I forgot what their called.
That time new year..no staffs and limited people working..so my dad never taruk them..3rd service they Kene already from my dad..

He giving me rm250 for 1 tyre,rim is 1250K.centercone rm50.nut rm50.total was almost rm2.6k.then after Siap trade in he gave for1950.my stock rims suspect air leak.

Edit:rm1950 sorry.

sKypRiNcE734the rearview mirror eh? the one with reverse camera video one? what's wrong with it?
On the rims, any specific one that's leaking? I also noticed mine air pressure drop quite fast. I usually pump 37, and it needs maintenance every 3 weeks or so dropping to 30. Happens to all sides of the tires.
*
Yea bro,my rear view mirror (got reverse camera) housing cracked itself.i asked The club members and most of them have this issue with 2012 and 2013 CFE premium model.i complainted to proton they can't sorry can't claim and they glue it back.but now it came out again.
Yeah,the front tires need maintenance every week.i pump 40 for all but the front one will drop to like 20-18..checked all the four tires also no hold,screw or anything.the rear ones will drop to 30-34 like that.

Yup,I pump 40.i pump 40 because my tire air goes down very fast.For me 30-35 too low haha,so I pump 40 and i feel it's better and cause of my tires.

Wish you can provide more info about the noise.

For me, is during uphill that my car throttle respond is lagging, and even when throttle hard, the RPM just increase but speed goes up very slowly. A quick test, as long as my car can do 0-100 around 10s then it calms me down a bit.

Additional sharing on things me and my buddy looked into:
- Our CVT is push type metal belt immersed in oil. Asking a non-Proton car service shop, I was told the CVT need to flush to remove metal flakes from oil and change CVT oil filter.
- CVT treatment - XADO (Holland) 'revitalizant' can repair damaged metal surface. I am thinking to put this additive to my CVT when change gear oil at 30k. I know recommended CVT oil change is 60k. Google for price. Malaysia got XADO agent, but only for turbo engine treatment. Engine treatment also contain 'revitalizant' technology.

the noise was weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee(very loud) and my car was jerking badly already,luckily the engine dint die.
CVT light also dint come on.
I was otw back from penang to seremban.

I was driving around 170-195 because there was 1 bmw x1 trying to chase me,so i went above 180 and he cant catch up.i was cutting thru the left and right lane all the way at that speed.that x1 joined me on the road at ipoh.when i finally reached seremban toll,after touch and go,the gearbox suddenly gave that weeee noise and the car was jerking.i was like oh shit,gearbox is dead.but luckily nothing happen and i stopped at the traffic light,then only the jerking and the noise all gone.
I first thought the gearbox overheated but then it was a no because the CVT light did not come on!so then i suspected it must be the cvt clutch.in the club,many of them got this clutch slipping problem.
you can say i was racing with that bmw,hehehe.

the car was on full load,my family (5 of us) and 3rd row the bags and stuff.

Looks like the same issue with me & some of the user here, which is the mounting prob. Bring to sc bro, let them hear the sound & definitely they'll know the issue.  Scrollback few pages, we had discussed this earlier.

bro sKypRiNcE734 wow, salute you, at full loading with family you still can race with bmw  rclxms.gif

Oh and I forgot to tel,if anyone want to change tire for the Exora,I recommend u Michelin Pilot Sport 3,I just changed my tire and Rim.i had a lot of problem with the K2 rim and Barum tyres,the whole car starts to shake above 90km/h.he took my car to his shop hq in Shah Alam,and guess what?he wanted to scrap my brake disk!he said this war causing the problem.so I told him to not touch anything because my car is under warranty.steering vibrating badly and car shaking,then finally he gave Rota TE37 for 1 week.used it,front continental tire,behind Michelin primacy st.it was "okay" but still had vibrations.then finally he gave me Enkei rim,original from Japan he says.once fixed that rim,he asked me to pay extra 400 because the k2 rim was 1200 and this Enkei rim is 1900.i told him I won't pay,u think fuel u give money?for almost 2 weeks my Exora was with the guy!i told him I'll talk to your boss and deduct the petrol u use!so he paid me back rm250!then after fixing the Enkei rim,the problem was solved but had slight vibrations.i took it to the specialist and he could fix my problem!i drove to penang and came back.no problem but only the gearbox for now.otw to penang also an X1 could not catch up.otw back to seremban also same.the Michelin PS3 I'm using cost me 500 for 1 piece.very expensive but very good.can feel the tire response during rain and so.
