How this car compare to Inova interm of handling and realibility.
My relative is using Innova, so far past 2 years nothing problem. Just normal service.
I wonder how reliable this exora.

Hi all Exorian, need your advise as this my car problem. This few day while driving engine suddenly die especially at traffic light or drive slowly. And find hard to start back. Yesterday just do a service 70K km and reflash ECU TCU but problem still occur.
Anyone have experienced this before? Can share the experience?
Thanks.

check the Oil Control Valve (OCV) maybe dirty or maybe need to be replaced. Mine happen once need to rev the engine over 3k RPM otherwise the engine just die. Found out ocv need to be replaced

I had the same experience 3 months ago ,  dropped by Proton showroom Seapark during lunch hours to see if there's anything new (regarding the Exora facelift). there's no customer and the sales agent chatting outside the shop.. I walked in.. take a few peek at the brochures on the table for 2 minutes.. still nobody layan me. I walked out, never to visit it again.

Finally, I washed my EB last weekend.
Used Kit car wash fluid and applied cheapo Waxco polymer wax.

Going for 30k service later this week.

How much is the maintenance cause? The front page show labour hours. 1 labour hours is equivalent to how much?

Hi Alexei, do you mind share with me your maintenance cost? If you still remember 5k, 10k, 20k..
Maintenance every 5k or there is a 10k package?
Appreciate it. Thank you.

Crank sensor oil seal leaking...
Brake pads low at 30k km, front tires biased wear out, etc... Good car indeed.

Members, can share what's normal life span of brake pads?

Earlier I posted a few photos, there is a sensor next to the oil drain plug under the engine. Check if yours is leaking. Minor leak is ok, but major leak need to pay attention.

That means your turbo can't spool properly, and no boost.
Any other symptom?

The hose from air filter box there that connected to the turbo inlet(before the turbo). It cracks at the end of the hose. Means, unfiltered air can pass into the turbo from the open leak

Some said proton already remake this hose into another material or make it more flexible, I will personally go to Proton parts centre @ glenmarie next monday to buy the new one and confirm with them if there any changes made compare to old one. Warrranty period over, so have to use own moneyflies.gif

Also today found out my air filter clog with insects, dry leaves and dust. No wonder feel less power. sweat.gif

EDIT: also found leaks around rocker cover/cam cover there, so gasket need to be replaced also

Mileage : 59k km
