Mmm.....this means that i will not get my preve next week, that is good because it means that Proton is addressing the lag problem if revving below 2k rpm.

Uh oh. ECU tuning? maybe to reduce the laggy response from standstill?

In any case, brace yourselves for bashers bruce.gif

Does it means that proton probably heard many feedback from potential customers then decide to tune the ECU hmm.gif

Hopefully Proton can address this issues as well ..

"The cabin is spacious. Tall 1.8m adult can comfortable sit at the back with more than enough legroom. However, MMN thinks that Proton could do better with the sound insulation. Throughout the ride, there is a constant "dengung" from the car. It is not the tyre noise, and it is not the wind noise. I think it is the sound of the CVT. I might be wrong here, but there is this one particular sound among the quietness of the cabin.''

If they decide to tune the ECU, then it means that the official FC figures will need to change as well

test drive the car twice from different proton edars. first try was at Jln Sultan Ahmad Shah and the recent Sg Tiram branch.

Sorry to say but about the feedback about the sluggishness, it seems to be true. I'm using pug 308 turbo as a baseline for my comparison. Tried to floor down the paddle (at D mode) 1K-2K rpm, respond was slow and then at 2K the turbo kicks in. Could be CVT characteristics? Maybe proton need to tweak it to be responsive enough @ 1K-2K rpm on D mode.

Overall the car is good buy! Interior quality, it is very hard to explain, I don't get the quality vibe compared to Vios or City.

However, if you can live with the cons (proton's QC and SC) and your affordability is 73K range. Preve is a good family sedan car compared to the outdated Vios J.

Well, I still don't know why ppl still buying Vios even though it is very outdated. I guess it is branding, overall reliability and best SC.

Cheers! my 2 cents!

How about the loud engine noise , is it ok?

I don't know bout SG, if it can stop swirls it must be one heck of a product.
But those cheapo car wash always use lousy rag to wash your car make swirls all over the cars

This new delay sounds very troubling indeed. Though it could be a good thing. Maybe they'll tune it to match the Exora's style. At least that's what I'm hoping for biggrin.gif
