My chery QQ is 2 years and 7 months old na po ^_^

2.5 years old lang sira na yung bearings? Inferior quality ang bearings na ginamit sa Chery.

Get a sample, bring it to Manila Bearing Center (http://www.bearing.ph) and get the quality replacement brand like Timken SKF NTN etc. at 1/4 the price.

I will repost a message I made earlier today in a different thread:

Just wanna share my experience with a Chery brand car. I don't know if this is the proper forum. But my review may help someone considering buying a chery car.

I spent 5 days last week driving a chery QQ. Only 3000+ km on the odometer. I was visiting cebu and a friend lent me this car to use around the city. It was apple green.

I was pleasantly surprised at how much fun I had with it. Being very small, apple green, and quite uncommon, I felt like I was distinguished from every other average car on the road. I don't know if this makes sense -- but it was also refreshing, I did not feel any pressure from other cars. "Yes, it's a chery, i know, but it's fun." I also found the transmission control unique and enjoyed the fact that you can just plug a USB storage device into the headunit and play mp3s right away.

In terms of performance, it is really slow and weak. It was almost unable to get up the ramp from the Ayala mall basement parking. I had to turn the a/c off and hold my breath (not sure if that helped). According to a friend riding with me, the girls in a 90s model Pajero behind us were laughing at us. Hehe Fun.

I can tell that reliability is also bad. It was still a pretty new car but it would already rattle like a poorly serviced 15 year old corolla.

Would I buy one? Maybe. As a toy.

^ I'd rather purchase a 2nd hand Kia Picanto than a brand new Chery even if I were to be using it as a toy.

sir - for your hard earned cash, I would rather suggest a more reliable car from established brands like hyundai or toyota. don't be deceived by the margin of prices between Chery and the ones that i have mentioned before. think about future factors like reliability and durability even upon reaching 100K odo readings. most importantly, think about resale value. sometimes the price can be totally deceiving, not to mention tempting. and as with all temptations, we tend to regret in the long run. just my two cents.
