Sham0192 Neutral Newbie March 17, 2012 Share March 17, 2012 Proton Exora 1.6A is better or Chevrolet Orlando 1.8A? In terms of quality and FC? 3 weeks ago i'd test drive the Orlando and Exora late last year... it's 2 diff class...Orlando is a Crossover while Exora is MPV.. power wise Orlando is much better cos it's 1.8 (6 speed AT) and as for Exora was a little sluggish in pick up but it's understood it's only 1.6.. i'm still contemplating which one will be my next ride as COE for Cat B keep increasing. FC wise it's about the same for both rides....quality and cabin finishes...i prefer Orlando.. Orlando price tag 126k (standard model) 135k (exclusive model) My 2 cents...

Noirmubin Clutched March 17, 2012 Share March 17, 2012 I go for Exora Bold. Plus points are that servicing and parts can get across Causeway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are u planning to email to LTA if that is possible if there is certifitied copy from proton msia for changing of the engine. Was thinking of that a couple of days back...but then decide not to...(maybe ask around first)...no plans to change engine yet...basically maybe just change car to Bold Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panhard 1st Gear March 19, 2012 Share March 19, 2012 (edited) the cps campro's power is adequate for me even when driving up north with 7 adults. dont really need it to zoom zoom here & there esp. with the young ones in it. its easier & cheaper to maintain then the turbo version---that & the interior space is important for me. only wish the FC would be slightly better!

Noirmubin Clutched March 19, 2012 Share March 19, 2012 Heard from my cousin who's driving Exora that using Esso can improve FC. Have not try Esso yet Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SGXora Clutched March 19, 2012 Share March 19, 2012 all in all spend about S$200/- including syn. engine. oil i will normally get a set of all the servicing items from proton edar when i go up north & leave in the car. so anytime, can get servicing done either locally or up north when i'm there. much cheaper & using original proton parts too! like that will the warranty still valid???

Noirmubin Clutched March 19, 2012 Share March 19, 2012 like that will the warranty still valid??? believe that as long as parts come from official Proton...warranty is valid...6 months i think so Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panhard 1st Gear March 20, 2012 Share March 20, 2012 like that will the warranty still valid??? my exora already pass 2 years....what needed to replace under warranty already replaced. anyway, in those days warranty on cars only 1 year......(better check your original battery after 2nd year) my last service with them, they replaced my engine oil sump under warranty..saying that my oil sump on earlier batch had defect--hair-line crack line near drain plug area- but no leak. they advise any mechanic tightening the drain plug after draining should not over tighten cos the oil sump is made of aluminuim alloy not cast iron material..... so you bros pls. take note of this.
