Hi Eastarma
May you share whether this semi-leather seat cover is custom made or is this available cover somewhere that I can ask them to ship to Ipoh/Penang as I'm from Northern area.

it is custom made, Dk Schweizer 's branch in Puchong already got all the measurements for Eastar's cover seat, it may take 3 days to prepare and one day to install. Since Dk Schweizer has its branch in Penang, i think you can order from Puchong and it can be straightly shipped to Penang's branch for installation. Try contact this Penang's branch:DK-Schweizer Leather Sdn Bhd

I don't see any value added in your question. If you a fan of Eastar, you should at least do some research on your own. All this information can be obtained from web site and from the company Chery Alado.

About Mitsubishi 4G64; login to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitsubishi_Sirius_engine for Mitsubishi enhine history.
About Eastar chassis; check with Chery Alado, ask them to provide you the Eastar chassis fact sheets. I have a copy of fact sheets(all abt Eastar) from Chey Alado.
About European NCAP 4-star collision standard; login to http://www.cheryalado.com/ go to "Safety & Secuirty". Can check with Chery Alado also.

I supposed this forum is for Eastar fans and Eastar owners and everyone hope to see more value added discussion so that it bebefits all people.

1st of all, im not a china car fans at all.. make me become one
2ndly, i checked the wiki and none of the sentence there hints how reliable this engine is after 20years.. its ur claim afterall
3rdly, i searched www.euroncap.com and there is none (YES, I MEAN NONE) entry for this chery model..
anyway, something for us to enjoy although it wasnt from this model but from same manufacturer http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5kQGAK550LE
hopefully it can do much much much much better than that

how do u consider a value added anyway? praises all over?

brother

all cars driven over certain speeds causes accidents !

FYI - Princess Diana died in a Mercedes - one of the most safest cars

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_of_Dian...incess_of_Wales


why show us the video when all cars are prone to accidents - WHY

peace

1st of all, it is not my claim because I dun own Mitsubishi and I dun sell/advertise any product in this forum. We are sharing info and helping people to solve problems. If you dun see the fact, doesn't mean it is not there. Wikipedia stated that Mitsubishi 4G64 engine started its application from 1987–1990 on Mitsubishi Sapporo and the last model Mitsubishi car using 4G64 engine was Eclipse 2005 and Spacegear 2006.

2nd, we are not here to argue who is right and who is wrong. We are here to see good and bad points on Eastar and we want to help each other to solve/improve the problems. It is great that some branch manager and salesman are with us in this forum. We also see some excellent members like Eastarma, Enigma4646 & etc putting up effort to help/improve for Eastar owners. I give them

When I read bad feedback, I counter check with sales representative here to see whether the company is doing anything. Surprisingly, those problems are very well taking care off. Example: the left front door/window noice; the company is looking into & redesign the door seal rubber. Isn't it amazing! I can see this forum is very effective and very good!

eastarma.....one of our eastar owner if I'm not mistaken ....Bintang Timur ....talking abt the custom bodykit ....I'm not sure whether his 'project' has already been done ????

According to my sales man, Eastar custom made bodykit is available in SP(Kedah). Two shops can handmake with excellent workmanships. Can call Mr Lee of Chery Alado in SP for more info.

I talked to Penang brnach people at Dk but the quoted price is RM 2700 semi leather. Full leather will go to about 3400. Not sure what material & how you can get it done at 1K. Anyone can help?

Hi sumer.. Salam dan sejahtera..

Saya dah beli kereta ni last November.. sekarang interest rate dah 2.6!!! saya kena 3.7 jugak sama ngan Enigma..
kereta ni semakin banyak.. in fact kat opis I, diorang dah mula bercerita pasal kereta ni...

Memanglah ada beberapa masalah kecil (I would say) tapi sebagai pengguna kereta Nasional untuk 7 tahun,
saya tak nampak beza sangat pon teruknya kereta ni dengan kereta lama I... malah saya rasa amat berbangga memiliki keta ni..

tapi, sayang sikit sebab saya rasa absorber depan dah bocor, kedua belah... orang lain ada such case tak?
mungkin sebab enjin berat sangat kot... belum hantar lagi..

yang saya nak puji, masa naik cameron last december.. fuuuhhh... dari bawah sampai atas kereta ni paling
laju dan sedap masa naik (FC tolak tepi lah)... BM, Merc, Hilux, Livina... semua saya terpaksa potong sebab
rasanya diorang tak nak habiskan minyak diorang... tu pasal diorang tak nak speed

so sekarang dah duduk kuantan, dah nampak jugak ramai yang dah pakai..kalau ada konvoi ke kuantan ke,
telok cempedak ke, family day untuk CMC ke, just update lah.. nak join gak...

correction, i got it done for 2k, not Ik and it was a discounted price since I did it thru 'someone'. Rm 2700 is a normal price. Even I asked after that (directly like you) the quotation of the same material for my perodua car (minus two bigger seats), they gave me RM 1,900. Only hundred ringgit less than Eastar!!!

hai....absorber dah bocor...apa symptom-ya...bunyi klok-klok??

aslkm

Apa akan jadi pada warranty cherry eastar kalau saya tukar stereo sistem sedia ada dengan dvd player, tv dan monitor? Warranty terjejas ke? Ada sapa2 tau?

takde bunyik tu, tapi kat rim penuh ngan minyak.. saya perasan lepas basuh keta tu, lepas tu, dalam hari yang sama, rim penuh ngan minyak.. maksud penuh tu takdelah minyak melekat, tapi bila selet, minyak tu hitam melekat ngan habuk...

berkenaan ngan alignment tu, obvious betul lah.. memang makan kiri, tapi SC tu cakap sebab memang design camtu, untuk keselamatan... betul ke? sebab first time pakai kereta baru.. selama ni pakai kereta 2nd hand. So, kalau tak centre tu plus semua defect tu, saya halalkan ajer lah...

so, berapa orang club member ni? CNY ni, Chery Showroom kena buat open office untuk club member lah... sebab support diorang...

lagi 1, nak ucap terima kasih pada enigma, zazu, dynasan etc2 lah, sebab dioranglah saya decided untuk beli keta ni, tanpa menunggu proton yang masih tak kunjung tiba...

So Eastarma, still go this "someone" or not?

I know it'll be cheaper by the dozen also, ful leather, RM 3200.

Salam alaik...
just found this forum. bila ada TT lagi? teringin jugak nak tgk easter yg dah ambah accesori. Aku dah pakai sebulan tapi still standart lagi. rasa macam tak puas jer...

really ???thats good .....hope a member can upload the photos....

Added on January 8, 2009, 7:46 pmFYI ....Chery Management has invite me for a club discussion which I fail to respond yet ...since quite bz with my kids and family plus office works ....on top of that ....my maid just ran away .......fuuuhhhhhhhhh ....

WSB 2176 .....allignment sway to left is not the safety spec .....Chery has to clarify this to all users to avoid misunderstanding .....I will service for 5000KM soon ....since planning to go back to KT this CNY ....whether it is a manufacturing defect Chery has to do something .....hope to get a pure statement from Chery Alado Mgmt Team....( pls respond to all via this forum )

Finally i managed to test drive the car at Giant Nilai last monday after sending my daughter first day in school.
Hmm.. quite impressive eventhough this car also got alignment problem. Senget ke kiri jugak la.
Of course it is not fair for us to compare the interior and fittings quality of this car with other high end car (Estima, Innouva etc.). But overall, satisfying to me. My pocket of course can't own that type of car la.
My wife pon dah tanya je bila nak book keta ni. Penin kepala. Loan lama baru je nak abis.

Promotion ada lagi ke? Dah exceed 1000 unit?

BTW, untuk senior yg dah lama own Eastar ni, please share all your problem so that Enigma can brought up the matters to Chery Management. And good info for new people like me.

Enigma, we count on you.

Enigma, let's TT this Sunday, anyone interested?
