i get this from borg warner site.

Turbocharger for passenger car gasoline applications with water-cooled bearing housing

Petrol engines, where the exhaust gas temperatures are 200 to 300 °C higher than in diesel engines, are generally equipped with water-cooled centre housings. During operation of the engine, the centre housing is integrated into the cooling circuit of the engine. After the engine's shutdown, the residual heat is carried away by means of a small cooling circuit, which is driven by a thermostatically controlled electric water pump.

is this true for exo cfe ,


There are people saying, after switching off the engine, the electrical fan is still running for a while. So I guess what Borg said is true.

I prefers to use my head than follow the crowd. After all, it is my money and not theirs.

I know what you mean but unfortunately, many cars nowadays have this sort of "can't see the nose" design, not just Exora.


yup, sometimes really cant estimate the front end.. my front bumper below kena scratch due to wrong estimate the road side divider.. 059.gif

Bro,
Can you elaborate a bit above ?

I have experinced Waja 1.8, PV6, and Neo CPS, all these cars has properly stitched leather.
The stitching does not cause the leather to have unnecessary creases.
The Bold's leather has this creases. It makes the seats looks used. At some part its not the same left and right like at the headrest.

One more thing i discover is that some part are made in China. Its not that i am saying Made in China is bad in quality.
Its just one way to keep the cost down. Lie down and look at the sensor under the GB, its " Made in China"
The GB housing has "XUHANG" written on the side. I dont think "XUHANG" is a European company right?

GB u mean the gear box right? I thought the gear box is made by Punch? Maybe Punch manufactured it in China (all multinational companies do that). Just hope the QC is ok.

scary to hear that gearbox from China...mine Inspira also got some component from China when opening the engine hood...some cables conduit harnessing from JK Factory in Tebrau and some from China...luckily engine + gbox still Japon. Only unlucky things getting the absorber made from lousy material...noisy
