Exora Bold CFE vs Chery Eastar

[sissoko]

Terrible lah all this salesman talking rubbish. Did any salesman mention about not having a turbo timer and how they solved that issue. Proton+lotus found a great way to solve that problem. By having an electric pump to pump the coolant when engine is off and also to keep the fans running when pump is on as the turbo is water cooled. Did any of the salesman mention about variable intake cam?

so no need to have turbo timer ?

No need turbo timer. But if you really really want to be 100% sure, can still put one in. The advantage with the timer is that it keeps oil flowing to the turbo bearings which are very hot as well if the car was driven hard. So that the heat will not "cook" the engine oil when the car is off. If it does it may leave tiny amounts of varnish on the bearings and shaft which will shorten the turbo life. But this effect should be greatly reduced because coolant is still flowing for 2min after car in shut down. But if driven very hard 2mins usually not enough, better 3-5mins. So no choice have to sit in the car and wait or cruise and coast to your destination rather than blast there and off the engine. But sometimes cannot help in an emergency like got football, badminton match on TV, need to go toilet as a$$ almost bursting, wife pregnant water broke, etc etc. hahahahaha

So now the 2nd question is the problem about warranty and cutting the ori wiring to install the timer and whether the timer will affect the alarm and central locking. Won't know until somebody try.

Do not buy Cherry, it's by far the worst interior quality I've ever seen in a car! Compared to Cherry, Proton is way much better.
