I tried S towards the end of my test drive. paddle shifters more fun. Summore the clicking of the paddles feel like playing racing game with a gaming wheel hahahaha 

I agree. If I get this car, my pedal will always be in S 

Cute Vios got cute driver or not?

Victor's face got change color ar?

You mean if you have a hot chick beside you, you won't be able to stare at her legs while you fishtail?

You have much to learn, young padawan 

P1 is consider cbu or ckd in the maa chart?

ckd

elantra also wannabe ckd with changing the logo from hyundai to innokom but their 1.6 prices still 
meaning this website isn't logic at all...
the only logic is "standard accessories prices approved by govt"...

it's a male driver inside the Vios.. lol
Yes, from solid white to blue lagoon and almost puke inside the car. hahaha... the car made me feel more confident, so no worries lah. Personally hantam the car before everyone does, brake, handling, power is awesome.

ckd is completely knocked down means locally assembled .. cbu completely built up meaning import.. which sos u wan? cili ah?

I could not accept such quality with this price....

You're the first. I never try because scare kena summon. 

about the weld, malas nk terang, just google about type of car manufacturing weld. Other things pandai google, this thing cannot google maa...

Spot welding (RSW)[1] is a process in which contacting metal surfaces are joined by the heat obtained from resistance to electric current flow. Work-pieces are held together under pressure exerted by electrodes. Typically the sheets are in the 0.5 to 3 mm (0.020 to 0.12 in) thickness range. The process uses two shaped copper alloy electrodes to concentrate welding current into a small "spot" and to simultaneously clamp the sheets together. Forcing a large current through the spot will melt the metal and form the weld. The attractive feature of spot welding is a lot of energy can be delivered to the spot in a very short time (approximately ten milliseconds).[2] That permits the welding to occur without excessive heating to the rest of the sheet.

bla bla bla

Applications


Perhaps the most common application of spot welding is in the automobile manufacturing industry, where it is used almost universally to weld the sheet metal to form a car. Spot welders can also be completely automated, and many of the industrial robots found on assembly lines are spot welders (the other major use for robots being painting).

The issue imo is why the welding is not 'neat'. If its hidden, no problem, but when exposed 

perodua mybi also doesn have the esc, abs all other things offered in Preve. This is not a big trade off compare to what offered by the car.

FC? proton claimed it to be average of 8.4l/100km
Average of 2.0l NA is 7.5-7.8l/100km.

The tack weld is a little small weld, that is not designed to be of any structural value.

wanna ask here...preve iafm cvt or persona elegance h line better in terms of acceleration? tq...

this is on a RM132K car, can almost buy 2 preve already...


this is on a toyota altis.

Just in case there are any confusion why use the handbrake as opposed to the footbrake, as recommended by mat79, that is because the wet clutch opens (disengages the cvt from the engine) when...

1. The gear is in N or P
2. The brake pedal is pressed (my understanding is it will not be opened as wide as in condition 1, therefore still creating drag.)

So, from Kristof's explanation, my understanding is that, when you are pressing the brakes, and release it to press the gas pedal, the clutch needs time to close, hence the lag experienced. If you dont want to feel this throttle lag, you either...

1. Wait a moment before pressing the gas pedal, by when the clutch will be completely closed, or
2. use the handbrake to stop the car from moving, but keep you gear in D. This way the clutch never opens, and once you relase the handbrake the car is ready to go right away.

Mat79,pls correct me if I am mistaken.

I have several question regarding CVT for exora bold(CVT3) and saga flx (CVT2):

1) I notice that exora bold still roll back on even slight /gradual slope(not-too-steep slope). Normal auto gear vehicle only will roll back when the slope is too steep, if it is not steep enough, it's will lock at there. Is there anyway to make CVT lock it when reach slight/gradual slope? It is kinda dangerous esp for new driver.
You are correct. This is a know "issue", but is a design feature actually. Two things contribute to this:
First thing is what we call idle neutral, unlike all regular older AT's that have a constantly dragging torque converter or clutch, we open our clutch (a wet clutch, more pressure = more drag, even more pressure closes it) almost completely when you are pressing the brake and standing still. this way fuel is saved. If you release the brake a little time is needed to apply pressure to our clutch again. that is when you roll back a little, rollback only occurs on hills steeper than 10%.
secondly the engine cannot deliver a lot of power idling, when aircon is on, heavy car, on a hill, we can start closing the clutch in order not to roll back, but that will cause the engine to stall. When you apply trottle you will notice first the clutch opens a little bit so engine revs up, than we start closing the clutch, during revving up, you can encounter rollback.

What to do? use handbrake in stead of brake, this way we not shift to neutral (we only read regular brake signal not handbrake), use enough trottle, this way the engine produces engough power to close the clutch in one move.

i feel like going to those thread to comment but i don't think so it is appropriate as i'm a thread started for preve some more, so i better stay mutual to avoid more unnecessary fights.

hey guys, wanna create a TT for Preve?

lai lai no problem, we can have some TT about preve also, maybe brainwash you then you go buy straight away ;D

So i got it right, right?
Oh ya sori. Hehe, thanks for correcting.

wahhhh       

come discuss make friends, it is about the communities ma, maybe can share share experience in automotive industries or driving experience and also learn something, i very noob in automotive industries one but now learning a lot from this thread.

Bile? lepas u ambik keta? I nak duduk sambil tengok nightstalker bawa your keta 190kmh 

Set a date first la
