guys,
just for info..
http://kereta.info/the-reality-controversy...-apxproton-msx/

prob'ly proton mpv used different engine only & the shell ofcourse ..
your eastar was jointly developed with lotus..and who's lotus tokey ?
you guess..

I dont have chery/alado eastar, I'm an old toyota man all this while but I'm not bias.
Last time when I bought my rare species toyota cynos I'm facing lot's of criticism like you all do, but those ppl who just hantam2 are not the one whose driving it. 2nd value, maintenance is avery subjective matters.

Good luck and enjoy your rides.

Sincere

at last after following the "health development' of this car I decided to buy this car for my wife for sending my kids to school and go to anywhere she like without bothering me hehe.
got it couple of weeks ago.
Any body knows how to open radio panel? thought wanna change the radio, I got one double din DVD better than stock one.
Afraid if I cungkil2 will broke the panel. the material seems like very fragile.

regards

I aggree with analog temp meter accessory so we could detect earlier any temp misbehaviour. Ini cuma hijau..merah..hijau..merah....hehehe
6556, which automart in jb ? lots of auto mart there..interested with bodykit..

salam 6556,
Thanks VM..sure kena tengok..
the radio can be set according to region and lotsa function jugak..i tot just simple stupid radio..hehehe.don't bother sending remote to duplicate at kedai "Ah Beng" won't work..the random codes quite good.

Salam/Hi all, manage to open up the dash panel and change the ori CD player to touch screen double din dvd ..DIY. I'm the kind who don't trust the 'kedai accessories"workmanship. Patah berderai bukan depa peduli..kena before.
So DIY for me lebih safe. Any body who need the guide just pm.
I'm snapping the pic tomorrow to sort of document it for those who keen to operate the panel..
6 screw aje..

Incik Dynasan,
Srs pasanger side for mine also they'd already fixed last 2 week but eventually after it was fixed (better la..not perfect) the PAB and SRS indicator on all the time tak mati-mati, so I went to SC again and they just reset the Computer ..i think the ECU kot and everything OK oredi.
For the backrow plastic latch mine also broken ..plastic material fragile la. and they say they will replace it together with my passanger head rest on my next visit..
Last week during my visit to SC there're 2 guys car got problem side screen/glass. Cermin tepi jadi warna pelangi. So who got rainbow colour on their screen can get replacement oso but have to tint again la if tinted.
I ask the service advisor he said if buy the price is less than RM40..murahnya macam tak percaya .

Salam Busyra,
saya rasa tak perlu risau sbb kes-kes yg saya sebut tu saya tengok ialah mereka yg dari golongan 1st batch. Ini kebanyakan datang dari human error masa pemasangan. Eventually semakin matang kilang pemasangan di JB tu, semakin ok la.
so far mcm saya takde la kena ulang alik gi SC, sbb silap saya jugak masa 1st visit tu nak keluar tak cek balik sbb org rumah yg drive chery tu dia hapah tak peduli lampu2 yg nyala..kalo tak hari yang sama jugak saya reset balik je fault tu.
Kos servis free aje dari minyak itam/workmanship/filter (setiap service), pastu ade sekali masa 20k ganti brakepad & plug. Tapi itu utk batch 2008, 2009 tak tau la plak. Warranty 3 taun apa nak takut. Rosak suruh ganti la.
Dulu saya pakai wira baru taun '99 pun lagi tak baik nasib saya ...pakai 3 hari lepas kelua kedai semua electrical system kiok. sadai kat glenmarie 2 minggu, keluar 3 bulan pastu gear tak boleh masuk gear2..sadai lagi.
Ex-officemate saya beli fiat Ulysse brand new balik trengganu kereta stalled tengah jalan.ECU rosak..kete 180k tu..
ini setakat minor2 yg tak jejaskan perjalanan apa ade hal, lagi pun orang politik kata "ini hanyalah kes terpencil"..hehe
salam

who yoh.. pasang NGV..
Alo mr cherynewfren, the front grille look garang to me..what du tu mean "booked mine"?
buy from china direct ke?
how much r?

250?? mahei nye.. tunggu visor exora je la...

mintak tolong org pempuan je la belikan..they get the better price..

yes that's right..I oso got that price from cherry.
I've already tried duplicate. machine confirms ok but only can use once on my car.
so then that locksmith tried it with several keys..olso same .
So better to get it direct from cherry I think..

huishh..too long tak online. seems lots of updates.
i'm obsolete already..
visor pun dah available..

salam, ada sesape dah kena ganti bateri..aku dah kena da..
bateri bengkak dan tak cover by warranty..ceh..beli kat luar je..

6 bulan je.. agaknye parking kat yard dah lama sgt kot..aku ganti mf. ori pun mf gak ns70 ye kengkawan jenis beteri kite..

hello there mr crossover..
I've spoke to PJ SC service advisor by the name of david. There are 3 version actually.
Mine (1st batch) the battery brand is chery, grey color & was CONFIRMED maintenance free !!
2nd batch and 3rd batch brand is yokohama - non maintenance free version. Call them if you have doubt.
And I'm not simply2 say something without checking with them 1st..I'm not from "that" company, "that" company never train me for anything, this is not my 1st car and I believe my eyes plus my litle knowledge..
My intention is just that I wanna share something with other user.

Feel free to verify.

salam/regards
Nizam

yeah sure.. cool anyway.
Sorry for the misscomm..

I'm not expecting hi bro.. i know. Just share with other user.
any metal in the long also will get rust.
anyway is your car made of carbon fiber ?

cheers
