You may try to drive your car with "Aircon" OFF, the cooling fan should run when u Park & stop the engine.

sometimes overcrank, jerky reverse and engine dead when reverse.

Guys, just to share as of todated after the last service my overcrank issued resolved. Managed to talk to the foreman who did the service on my EB & below is what he did. rclxms.gif rclxms.gif

1. Software adaptation(most of us did).
2. Service/clean engine throttle body.

Ontop of that I DIY for my engine grounding & can feel my EB is much easy/lighter during crank start. icon_rolleyes.gif

Nice. Plan to highlight this to the SC during my next service  wink.gif

btw what do you mean by DIY engine grounding?
*
Mean...making my own copper cable & connect between the engine top mount to batt(-Ve) terminal. Does feel the engine is much lighter during morning start-up. icon_rolleyes.gif

Guys, I DIY 3 point from engine top mount to batt -ve terminal... Do observe the ignition/start is much smoother & lighter. icon_idea.gif


A friend of mine told me, by adding this ground cable to the batt terminal will actually improve the resistance will then improve the potential different. He told me his CRV did observe ~15% fuel improve but I have yet to confirmed, as of now does not seem to see the benefit of fuel save. Only can feel the ignition is much smoother.. thumbup.gif

Yesterday changed steering rack.
Suggest you all have it checked, too. Take note, tehsarbat.

Hi Alexi, Mind to adv how could U convince the SC to change for U?? doh.gif

Cos I did show mine to my SC which the steering "holding rubber coupling" can't hold the shaft when we steer left & right(shifting) but the foreman claimed Exora is design in this way... rclxub.gif

wai1460Have you sent your EB for tire balancing and alignment? Have you recently rotated the tires? Please share some hints.
Adjust what? The FC meter? I don't think it can be adjusted.
Perhaps detail out your drive condition? Which EO, tire pressure etc that you are using?

Today driving uphill, and tried to accelerate from 40kmh at full throttle. Find that the EB is very hesitant to accelerate.
I believe it is due to CVT limiting the engine torque... anyone chime in your experience?
*
In order to have better response u should engage to "L" instead of accelerate at "D". It really make a different !!! icon_idea.gif

Can you check the condition of your front tires? Are they already worn on one side?
If that were true, you'll need new pair of front tires to rectify the problem.

Guys, a friend of mine own an ~2years ++ bold that have the similar issue that bias toward right & steering free play. He claimed the "Gear Complete power steering" once thru MIR complaint but problems recur after ~4months & he got another replacement 2 weeks back but encounter loud Humming sound after few days of drive & need to send back for repair again.... rclxub.gif rclxub.gif rclxub.gif

btw do u guys face problem where sometime hard to change gear from P to R after parking. i face this 2nd time already.

is this normal problem?
*
Don't think this is normal. I do encounter this similar problems ~2 months ago, it happen in the morning & something under hot sun. cool2.gif

Did fed back during my 15K service 3 weeks back but can't find any fault code so nothing done...but to my surprise the "Parking level lock" problems gone after that icon_rolleyes.gif

rclxub.gif rclxub.gif

Here come another problems about 2 weeks after service, start to see the RED CVT light pop-up intermittently but nothing wrong with the car. Make appointment this noon to debug & found faulty Brake switch then get it replace superb to have this all activities done within 50mins... thumbup.gif

U may need to monitor your car & start to fed back to your usual SC to have them alert...

Hi Guys, just back from SC center to have my aircon-compressor bearing replace(cold start got squeaky sound). rclxms.gif
While waiting for the replacement job, did chat with 1 of the service rep & was told this Oil Hose replacement is " 40K service initiative replacement" instead of recall. For those EB that exceeded warranty will need to pay(~RM12 for hose exclude the clip). In other word when reach 80K we will need to replace with our own pocket money,,, notworthy.gif

guys...i have some prob with my 2013 exora, the cvt warning some times on... some other time off, i havent experience any power loss or jerking, but having cvt warning light makes me scared to perform long distance drive....
i ve make an appointment with Setapak 3S, but the rep said all fully booked up to28/2/16.....

You may check the "sign appear" in our car manual to confirmed what error is that. If confirmed is the CVT sign that come On & Off then very high chance is the brake paddle switch KO/dirty. Mine happen 6 months ago especially when rainy day & issued resolved after replace the brake switch(in fact OBD will show the error). Hope it help blink.gif
