Yup, still can long drive even during break in period, just that if can, avoid hilly area. But if cannot, its still ok, just dont drive beyond the limit.

Thanks mat79, oh i forgot , what is the break in drive limit

keep the rev above some rpm. refer to the link i post earlier.

Thanks Mat79 for your explanation

I believe the engine roaring sound + CVT whining is the one that protrude to the cabin during hard acceleration. I'm not used to CVT system and CFE engine, so maybe that is the reason the sound a bit louder or perhaps because the car is still new (some SA said that is the reason). Any other car that behave the same (the engine sound).

Anyway, since I've testdrove 4 different units, I realized the sound is different. on two cars, the sound were loud and the other two were reasonable. One more thing, in both cars with the loud sound, the dashboard seems rattle a bit during hard acceleration... is it normal ? what cause the rattling ?

My first time heard of this too..... fead belt? Hmm......

BLM first model what?

Front end accesories drive belt, commonly known as aircon belt. Its the belt that powers the aircon compressor, power steering etc etc.

FEAD = Front End Accessory Drive

OIC......! Many thanks! Sorry for my ignorance!

macam susah to drive CVT

then new car can go Genting ka??

It seems that mat79 is gonna be our guru for the time being. So much information needed. Preve is way too mysterious to us.

I was tot of rev up Cameron Highlands after 1K first service, but it looks like now I must not do that!

what are the other advantages of CVT besides Minor FC improvement and smooth gear change?

i also wan after 1k service goes up genting

Ape ini, got flx owner drive up genting with full load the same week he receive the car.

i hope Preve can climb up genting with less struggle...can maintain better RPM...less than 2000RPM is really hard...very slow...like turtle...with turbo...i think it should be no problem...

Agree. Sounds troublesome when drive uphill. Must maintain rpm above 2k.

Any cvt driver experience like this before?

Feels like an airplane with airplane sound.

Seriously, the main advantage of a cvt is the ability to keep the engine running at the optimum RPM vs load, independent of vehicle speed.

he tak sayang kereta wooo..
Does CVT heat more easily than conventional auto gearbox?

Early gen Lancer GTs got tons of heating issues..
