Speaking about tyres, can I use the stock recommended tyre pressure for 215/50/17? Since it's slightly lower profile, should a higher pressure be used?

Better take your rim together with tyre to check for air leakage. Shouldn't go down so fast so much. But y your pressure so hiYeah,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. |

As i only put 31, after 2 week pump again, its drop to 28-29. However, I did asked the tire shop ppl and sc personnel, they said around 31 should be the best. Anyway, i will try 33-34 and guess might be too low pressure and caused high fuel consumption too... but definitely not up to 40 that high loh... LOL |

guys...just to clarify... the variance between premium and super premium is just the body cladding only right? and it is 5K price difference.
who ever have had this car for more than 3 years, are you experiencing squeaking sounds? I had bad experience with my previous proton with all kind of sounds.. they said that's the package when u buy a proton, u get that sounds package together but the latest specs of exora seems promising.. at the same time i am aiming for 2010 toyota wish. appreciate your comments guys. |

LOL check the door trim there for the recommended tire pressure. It says 37 if carrying many passengers. So, I just go ahead with it. |

QUOTE(my plumred @ Feb 23 2015, 03:19 PM) I don't know how much to replace the turbo. Saw on mudah brand new unit is 1.6k.Not sure about Serena. At that price, it's 2nd hand. If in good condition, I'd say Serena running a simpler engine could cost less. I may be wrong. |

May I ask how often your engine fan still spinning after switch off the engine?
My EB about 2 months old, the fan usually still spinning after I switch off the engine even I drive for short distant. But now opposite thing happened, for the past week, the fan stop completely after I switch off the engine...is it normal after we drive it for about 2 months? |

It almost never spins during afternoons and warm nights. But it certainly always spins during a cold morning. |

Most likely after running in the engine for 2 months is not so 'tight' anymore thus less friction and heat.My EB about 2 months old, the fan usually still spinning after I switch off the engine even I drive for short distant.
