QUOTE(FenomX)
The Blue lagoon comes, washing over me -
It doesn’t bring the relief I expected.
How I’d longed for that blueness
My escape from the tranquility black,
There is no hiding from the light, you see -
Everything is under its inspection.
I’d just wanted to lose myself
In the black,
I’d patiently waited for it, counting the seconds,
To become sweetly numb
Is that so wrong?
To forget, to forget -
It won’t let me forget, the darkness -
Rather, it provides a lovely canvas
For my sorrows
Oh, give me the light,
Its curious gaze,
Anything but this silent
Knowing
Darkness,
So still and terrible.
It doesn’t pry like the light, there’s no need -
It knows.
It smiles at my foolishness - all along I’d thought it a friend
But now I see, everything is all too clear here in the dark -
It is a demon.
A demon of the worst sorts
It has betrayed me, a spider that caught me in its web
And now approaches
To feed -
There is no escape.
In the dark tranquility of night,
The shadow beckons,
The crimson betrayal of treason's hilt,
Embedded deep within each heathen,

Forward he marches unto the arms of death,
For treason of betrayal so great,
Pound him, cut him, till he is out of breath,
Then let the scythe of death become his treat,

Woe be upon he who embraces not the night,
Woe be upon he who follows the path of azure,
For his soul will be crushed with the shadow's might,
For falling for such simple allure,

Let death be his marching tune,
Let sorrow be his only guide,
For the traitor with such black fortune,
I banish thee, never be in my sight.

laugh.gif

FenomX,

Y U NO GET BLACK??

Need to drop by RHB and try my luck at their supposed better interest rate.

Since you mentioned the registration plate - any clues if WWQ 868 would still be available? Or should I try my luck with WWS instead?

letting go of everything that surrounds me
just sitting in the preve
completely numb
no worries, fears or pains
floating above it all
flashes of memories come
reminding me of the tranquility black,
showing the person that i was
and who I chose to become
wondering about the future
and who i will be then
interested where my life will be
will i be pleased with the choices that made
and the path of which i have traveled
the blue lagoon is the answers for everything.

3 digits wor, might be a lil bit harder, mine 4 digits. WWQ bought by someone so i might just wait for WWR or WWS. Runner settle.

Runner ah? I remember someone saying runner damn ripoff. If 4 digits you could just go to JPJ no? Provided you got the time la.

I got a backup 4 digit. But kinda like the 868. Problem is the two 8's though. Haih.

Well, let us both wait for them shall we? nod.gif

But for DVD Function, never heard of it before. As u can see in the Spec Sheet, it clearly state at ICE's section: CD MP3 Player with Bluetooth, USB & iPod Connectivity

So I don't think there is one.

Does Preve sound system comes with tweeter ?

- If I'm not mistaken, in V4 there's ppl discussed about this and said no, it should have been there. Thus making Preve's audio quality is a bit lesser than Waja.

Well Sifus, do correct me If I'm wrong here. Hehe I'm just an apprentice here.. icon_rolleyes.gif (Kot..?)

Asked my SA regarding the 4G Wifi. They give us portable mobile hotspot device. Device is battery operated so can also detach from car and bring together. Can see the device at Yes 4g site(same device i think). Wifi everywhere as long as got 4G connection. Payment base on prepaid system.Every month they will credit certain amount (RM60 if not mistaken) for 12 month. After that need to top own money.

Blue Lagoon is the weirdest colour ever. Not because it's ugly, but due to the inability of my camera to get the accurate colour. It's completely blue on my camera, but in reality it's somewhat greenish blue.

ahucs, if the steering senget, but the wheel is ok, meaning even senget, the car dont go to the right or left during straight line driving,then is not bad allignment, just the steering need to adjust. Just send it back immediately after doing it.

But if u send to prtn sc when the chamber is already with adjustment nuts, then need to change to original nut coz already mentioned, when adjusting chamber, u already changing the factory default setting. Even allignment is correct, but sometimes its not precise coz u already alter the chamber setting.

Thats why, there are some says, 1st year, r n h ok, after that, not nice n not the same. If u still within factory setting, the allignment, the chamber(no adjustment), stock rims, it will not iff much unless the shock is already worn. But if change, even the rims, need to be careful, if can, stick with manufacturer size n width. If can, use stock rims. If want better handling n comfort, easiest way is to opt for better set of tyres. For performance, re 002, ps3, fi directional@ultimate f1 assy 2, is a better option. For comfort, premacy lc, cc5, conti premium n etc also a good oftion.

The stock tyes are uhp tyres for that particular co, so, shud be good replace it with same category of tyres. Xm 2 is good, but diff category, better opt ps3 then.

But dont worry, if steering senget, its a short fix, unless the car tend to go to the right @ left side on straight stretch, then, need to realign back. Jsut send it back, no need to pay again. Make sure its prtn sc, not authorised dealer prtn sc(3rd party).

Bye then.


Added on April 22, 2012, 1:12 pmone more thing, make sure u check everything(the car) n the sa explain on bcm, test driving it,if satisfied, then signing. If not, dont, ask for replacement or fixing if major, minor, remarks on the form. Major means need to send back to hq or factory to rectify, minor, nearest prtn sc can fix it.
Prtn is commited to be better, so, do a favour, if product dont satusfy u, dont take it, so that easier for them to take action to those involve, whether vendors or even their own assembly workers. Dont worry, its ur right.

sri petaling showroom not many people go there. so u can drop by and ask for a test drive. SA (very uncle one) that entertained me told me that waiting period is only 2-3 weeks cos they got very less booking. I dont know whether to kesian or not sweat.gif the uncle very talkative (or friendly?) from the moment I stepped to the showroom, during test drive and until I walk off from the showroom. During the test driving session, first few km I drove like uncle because he seems afraid if I drive recklessly. I ask where the S mode, he keep saying "S mode is for sporty" duh... cari punya cari, figured out how to change to S mode. Apa lagi, I tekan la pedal to the metal. Itu uncle sudah pegang bahu aku.. hahaha.. then he said "waa.. manyak kuat oh.." haha...

Rep tarak bagus..

This morning I took my wife to see car...

We went Honda, Toyota, Hyundai, and finally Proton....

ONLY in Proton .... we see people knocking on the preve, slamming door.. listening to the sound. No one behave like that in all the other 3 showroom.

I feel like telling those knocking on the car "Ini BESI! U pikir plastic ah?!"

But my wife took one look at the car, "Eh.. this one wheel can drop out wan leh!" sweat.gif

went to bukit anggerik show room. one uncle keep telling me to get toyota instead of proton. My gf and I feel so wordless.. hahaha

well, from what i can see, young people can accept proton better than the oldies. one couple that we saw, the bf keep promoting how good preve is, but the gf keep saying, "why copycat features from other car, like the push start button".. immediately listen to what she said, my gf and I feel so helpless..

i went and see it yesterday.. the feeling is solid. huge boot space, bigger then preve in pratical term i think. long wheelbase give good room inside. rear occupant have no head room. hate the interior design. the plastic quality is not bad especially the door plastic. dashboard plastic preve better. love the middle cubby hole with chrome trime. love the handbrake feel. love the pedal style where the kaki is bottom instead of on top, giving it a good feel.

ahucs, if the steering senget, but the wheel is ok, meaning even senget, the car dont go to the right or left during straight line driving,then is not bad allignment, just the steering need to adjust. Just send it back immediately after doing it.

But if u send to prtn sc when the chamber is already with adjustment nuts, then need to change to original nut coz already mentioned, when adjusting chamber, u already changing the factory default setting. Even allignment is correct, but sometimes its not precise coz u already alter the chamber setting.

Thats why, there are some says, 1st year, r n h ok, after that, not nice n not the same. If u still within factory setting, the allignment, the chamber(no adjustment), stock rims, it will not iff much unless the shock is already worn. But if change, even the rims, need to be careful, if can, stick with manufacturer size n width. If can, use stock rims. If want better handling n comfort, easiest way is to opt for better set of tyres. For performance, re 002, ps3, fi directional@ultimate f1 assy 2, is a better option. For comfort, premacy lc, cc5, conti premium n etc also a good oftion.

The stock tyes are uhp tyres for that particular co, so, shud be good replace it with same category of tyres. Xm 2 is good, but diff category, better opt ps3 then.

But dont worry, if steering senget, its a short fix, unless the car tend to go to the right @ left side on straight stretch, then, need to realign back. Jsut send it back, no need to pay again. Make sure its prtn sc, not authorised dealer prtn sc(3rd party).

Bye then.


Added on April 22, 2012, 1:12 pmone more thing, make sure u check everything(the car) n the sa explain on bcm, test driving it,if satisfied, then signing. If not, dont, ask for replacement or fixing if major, minor, remarks on the form. Major means need to send back to hq or factory to rectify, minor, nearest prtn sc can fix it.
Prtn is commited to be better, so, do a favour, if product dont satusfy u, dont take it, so that easier for them to take action to those involve, whether vendors or even their own assembly workers. Dont worry, its ur right.
*
the car tend to go to the left.. i've send numerous time to get it right...go to tyre shop also and they changed the chamber nut also the same... dunno what the problem.

To be fair, I bougt my saga from the sri petaling dealer and everything went smoothly, got my car after just a little more than a week. Based on that experience, i would buy from them again, specifically my SA.

yup,can take the spin. U shud insist for the checklist items from sa coz if not mistaken more than 25 items on the checklist need to check before he ask u to sign. Dont simply sign unless u r mutual with the checklist item.

About the tyre tend to go left, many things need to clarify 1st, firstly, is it happened immediately after u purchase the car? So, is it u send to prtn sc(not authorised dealer) afterward or to tyre shop? If send to prtn sc first, after the allignment, when still tender to go left, do u ask them to reallign it? n they shud test drive it with u in car to rectify the problem. If something not right, they shud check everything means bushes, rack n etc if there any probs with the suspension n steering system or even the tyres it self have problem, normally can check through balancing.

Unless its happened other wise, then, hard to help u on solution.

For cvt from punch instead of jatco, its like asking why getrag instead of aichikikai@mitsu.

Maybe dr karl has the answer :-). When i ask them, ask usual, based on prtn research, that is the best for them. More than that, i dunno.

There are quite a few in the showroom actually ask the SA for IAFM+ Preve.

Guess there will be definitely a few out there, although getting premium Preve seems to be a no-brainer

Hi guys, just few things to confirm, just in case SA didn't bluff me:

1) When calculate the car loan, we should leave out the insurance from the loan calculation, correct?

2) For Preve, the Accessories Package, is it compulsory or it is an option to take?

AFAIK

1) It doesn't matter whether it includes the insurance, what matters is how much you loan. They calculate the 10% dp from OTR figure, that means including insurance and everything.

2) Not sure if you can. But why do you want to leave out the package since it is already included in the OTR price?

I think that is the only workable specs. With the size and weight of the car, getting the non-turbo unit... underpowered.

According to the majority of testers of Preve, even the CFE variant is underpowered, maybe they are too used to normal AT cars?

ahucs, if the steering senget, but the wheel is ok, meaning even senget, the car dont go to the right or left during straight line driving,then is not bad allignment, just the steering need to adjust. Just send it back immediately after doing it.

But if u send to prtn sc when the chamber is already with adjustment nuts, then need to change to original nut coz already mentioned, when adjusting chamber, u already changing the factory default setting. Even allignment is correct, but sometimes its not precise coz u already alter the chamber setting.

Thats why, there are some says, 1st year, r n h ok, after that, not nice n not the same. If u still within factory setting, the allignment, the chamber(no adjustment), stock rims, it will not iff much unless the shock is already worn. But if change, even the rims, need to be careful, if can, stick with manufacturer size n width. If can, use stock rims. If want better handling n comfort, easiest way is to opt for better set of tyres. For performance, re 002, ps3, fi directional@ultimate f1 assy 2, is a better option. For comfort, premacy lc, cc5, conti premium n etc also a good oftion.

The stock tyes are uhp tyres for that particular co, so, shud be good replace it with same category of tyres. Xm 2 is good, but diff category, better opt ps3 then.

But dont worry, if steering senget, its a short fix, unless the car tend to go to the right @ left side on straight stretch, then, need to realign back. Jsut send it back, no need to pay again. Make sure its prtn sc, not authorised dealer prtn sc(3rd party).

Bye then.


Added on April 22, 2012, 1:12 pmone more thing, make sure u check everything(the car) n the sa explain on bcm, test driving it,if satisfied, then signing. If not, dont, ask for replacement or fixing if major, minor, remarks on the form. Major means need to send back to hq or factory to rectify, minor, nearest prtn sc can fix it.
Prtn is commited to be better, so, do a favour, if product dont satusfy u, dont take it, so that easier for them to take action to those involve, whether vendors or even their own assembly workers. Dont worry, its ur right.

Finally tested the car before dinner. Eventho I've know quite alot about the car thru this forum, but I just buat bodoh let the SA explain the stuff to me in details. My humble opinion:
- the stop and go lag is obvious and bugs me honestly. Just worry if getting out of junction when you need the instant boost
- once its moving, its not too bad, really. Don't even have to mention once at 2k rpm, the power kicks in and the car surge forward effortlessly
- NVH is topnotch, external and road noise is muted extremely well, or at least, impressed me as a Vios owner. However, engine noise somehow pierce into the cabin, but still acceptable
- R&H is impeccable, nuff said
- fittings and finishing, doesn't give me the confidence it will lasts long. No doubt a leap forward compared to Persona. Interior looks old skool, but Feels more continental
- paddle shift looks flirmsy, but once pressed, provides adequate tactile sensation
- steering is heavier compared to EPS typed, hence gives me good feedback and confidence to take corners

Final verdict- booked the red

I think engine noise is easier to cut compared to the rest. Hood + firewall? Hm. Anyway which spec was the test drive unit?

Probably expectation level too high, most who havent tried turbo car... expecting mindblowing chair sinking acceleration.... it doesnt work that way  biggrin.gif

Seriously no underpowered?

Tried Exora Bold CFE many times, never feel any adrenaline rush with Preve.
Doesn't feel any sign of 205Nm in Preve at all, perhaps the gearbox itself?

Anything else is good but not the power though, expected a bit more as compared to Exora Bold CFE as both with CVT gearbox.

The car wasnt under power la. although the response is shytty below 2k. And under d drive it keep control the rpm at very low side. After I use the paddle shift. There is power. And I haven't fully press down the accelerator.

Not bad la. but I do wonder. Where is the bov. And how is the turbo cooled? Coz I no see bov. And I see water pipe going into the turbo. Weird. Mine is oil cooled, n oil is needed for the turbo bearing. Can anyone clarify this?

ya much more better with chrome lining. feel premium for me la. by the way skrg pun banyak lawa la. very excited to get the car. everyday always thinking kasi tinted gelap2, black painting at top roof, 18"/ 17" sport rim, bodykit.

1st day book for this car always my heart say solid white the best for me. after launching rushing to showroom unfortunately only silver and red available. my father say red look small la. silver better. feel premium and comparing to white, silver is metalic colour. ask to SA where i can look solid white colour. she answer all showroom only available in silver and red colour. aiyoo why she cheat me. bcoz 1st spyshot at low yat in solid white and red colour.

so after a few days i look for solid white at another showroom and my mission successfully. i thk my 1st choice is right and call my SA confirm i will take solid white as my ride. fuhh very premium feeling la solid white. like conti car la. side view like new Volvo S60. rear end like Audi shh lor. fuhh damn hot. only front design i dislike. but nevermind its gorgeous than other C segment except Chevy Cruze (for me only la)

Q: How to update the map on the GPS? and where to get the update from?
*
There's a SD logo on the HU, so I think should be able to update the map:
user posted image

But still unconfirmed because me and SA also don't know what that SD "button" for...?
It cannot be press, cannot lift open either.
But I almost never seen a GPS navigation device that we can't update the map, how useless it will be... biggrin.gif

Now here's my questions:

[1]
Anyone know how good is the window tint film that come with Proton? I need those really able to block out heat because most of the time I park my car under direct sunlight while I'm in the office... sad.gif

[2]
If the window tint film were badly done (bubble, dust), can we refuse to accept or request for a redo?

[3]
I can't recall where, but I read from some website saying the meter can also display outside temperature, anyone can confirm this? This is not an important feature, but I just love reading it... tongue.gif

[4]
How can we know when the turbo actually kicks in? I can't notice any different in engine sound.


Thank you! icon_rolleyes.gif

Test drive review.
Went to view with open mind while same time expecting to worst due to numerous non positive reviews by others.

Design
First off prevee looks bigger in real life than photos. Front looks OK could had been worst looks better in black as the grille will look one piece with rest of bumper fenders and bonnet. Its neater that way.

A pillar to C its streamlined much to the profile of the new Civic which isn't here yet.

The rear is where it gets messy with two layers of break off lines one at the first curve from side panel to rear. Second line is few inches after making the rear too untidy unlike the front. Having the first line is understood to assist air flowing away from the rear lending a hand to reduce air turbulence but the second line is just plain unnecessary.

The rear lamps a matter of taste to buyers even though it doesn't seem to be related to the nose.

Interior
Feels big didn't bring my measuring tape to confirm. Wait a darn minute the dash even the aircon vents looks familiar like old W type Merc....ditch that faux wood.

Plastics much like Lancer inspira savvy saga etc... what improvement I noticed where those that matter most to daily users. Glove box was big good for SLR or handbag. Center box was superbig for your fav CDs. USB port hidden neatly infront console. Driver right side again a huge sunglasses or smarttag bin ? But this bin rattles when I did corners fast. They need to add some felt or foam to stop the rattling.

Steering feels good even without tele-scorpic function not that I need any. Paddle shifters works well and feels positive. Didn't fancy the auto stick though.

The seats front and back were fine much better body hugging in front thanks to the side seat airbags. Rear seat space is good with clearance below front seats for you to stretch your toes or place a superb amp there.

Nice things like hooks behind seat and the teh-tarik hook in front. What I liked was finally they got those pesky roof grab handles to bounce back slowly without a big sounding Thug!

To be continued....

Please don't worry about CVT cooler, there should be one somewhere in the engine bay. If not, the gearbox will overheat very earlier.

You can read from this thread. Although they are discussing about Exora, but I believe they are the same design. biggrin.gif

today came back from south to kl, saw one lagon blue at the fast lane with light one. I miss the front view, only when it pass me only manage to see the rear. The rear light looks small and ordinary. It would be better it could do like audi or volvo square strip rear light. But the car looks more continental at rear. It looks better than rear forte, from my personal view. Forte is nice but bit simple, but this preve looks simple but classy.
I dun know how to say, but I c proton car is getting expensive. If the car below 65k should be good. If not mistaken a preimium waja 1.6 also about 60k plus. You can't compare tech to tech coz the time is diff.
Seriously I won't go for cfe even the specs is gd. But how reliable the car still got doubt. 3 years down to road is good but if after 3 or 4 years still got questions. We don't want things minor minor happen after few years, especially like mouse sound, interior etc. But 63k for iafm+ cvt is a good buy. But again how underpower it is or is just sufficient for this car.
Maybe I give a test drive would change my mind.

I think different people has different view. For me with the price of 73k with the specs , technology that we are getting. Its quite reasonable. Some people might think differently saying its expensive. I think the main point is how you look at it that's all icon_rolleyes.gif

You say cant compare tech to tech, then how about inflation and rising cost of raw materials? rolleyes.gif

BTW, there's another "pocket friendly" version at 63k. But then you will just counter back by saying it doesn't have all those bell and whistles the Premium has. whistling.gif In the end it is a never ending debate.

The tint is from Ecotint, the same as Inspira. If the specs are also the same, then it is actually pretty good. It should come with a few years warranty, so if it bubbles you can claim it from proton or ecotint.

The car wasnt under power la. although the response is shytty below 2k. And under d drive it keep control the rpm at very low side. After I use the paddle shift. There is power. And I haven't fully press down the accelerator.

Not bad la. but I do wonder. Where is the bov. And how is the turbo cooled? Coz I no see bov. And I see water pipe going into the turbo. Weird. Mine is oil cooled, n oil is needed for the turbo bearing. Can anyone clarify this?
*
there is bov. recirculating type.. so u won hear pst pst...

turbo is water cooled.

there is a water/oil heat exchanger at one point....

I think the booster cable is standard wit the accessories gua. Saga pun ade, even have an emergency first aid kit.
The tint is from Ecotint, the same as Inspira. If the specs are also the same, then it is actually pretty good. It should come with a few years warranty, so if it bubbles you can claim it from proton or ecotint.

Test Drive today..The interior and exterior looks good, car boot quite big. However, When I compared the fuel consumption of L/ 100km, CFE required 6.6, Preve (CVT) - 5.8, Inspira (CVT) - 6.3....Based on this, maybe CFE is a petrol hungry car. In addition, I can feel the car is noisy..Compared to Inspira. However, the price is quite attractive with the features it offer (ie. electronic stabilizer, turbo, 4 airbags...etc. Just my one cents.. Any opinions after test drive?

its not weird... smile.gif

im not a turbo expert but what i know is that if i not mistaken for turbo normally when they say its water cooled means that its water cooled turbo for the housing etc but still needs oil to lubricate the bearings. the oil is not enough to take the heat away, just for the purpose to lubricate...

lets wait the expert come n explain. anyway dun worry so much about the turbo. its a borgwarner KP39... preve and exora bold is not the first car that used it...

dunno if i can get use to this big size car...my first car is a daihatsu charade aura...very small...i think my adjustment on cornering angle and parking need to be careful. from small car to very big car is hard to maneuver i think. hopefully my new car will never get any scratches because of own mistakes...

Proton Preve is awarded with MIROS 5 stars. While i am concerning how the MIROS tested the crash test since they don't even have any facilities and no videos are seen at all. Until they have all those facilities, for now, i only believe EURO NCAP that's it.

today came back from south to kl, saw one lagon blue at the fast lane with light one. I miss the front view, only when it pass me only manage to see the rear. The rear light looks small and ordinary. It would be better it could do like audi or volvo square strip rear light. But the car looks more continental at rear. It looks better than rear forte, from my personal view. Forte is nice but bit simple, but this preve looks simple but classy.
I dun know how to say, but I c proton car is getting expensive. If the car below 65k should be good. If not mistaken a preimium waja 1.6 also about 60k plus. You can't compare tech to tech coz the time is diff.
Seriously I won't go for cfe even the specs is gd. But how reliable the car still got doubt. 3 years down to road is good but if after 3 or 4 years still got questions. We don't want things minor minor happen after few years, especially like mouse sound, interior etc. But 63k for iafm+ cvt is a good buy. But again how underpower it is or is just sufficient for this car.
Maybe I give a test drive would change my mind.

i like to comparing Preve' with Chevrolet Cruze, Hyundai Elantra, Kia Forte because their latest tech and for Chevy Cruze for their platform and well known NVH. For the price RM 72, 990 with a lot of goodies, spec wise i think only Kia Forte is match making with Proton Preve. What shame is Japanese car outside offering lower space at very higher price (RM 110, 000 - RM 135, 000 region) so i'll not consider any one of Japanese make except a CKD rebadge Mitsubishi Lancer, Proton Inspira. Plus i only afford car below RM 100, 000.

so take other C segmen as real competitor, design wise let put aside bcoz everyone taste not same. so what i like about Proton Preve is

1-multilink suspension system instead many of C segment competitor incl Cruze which only offer Torsion Beam suspension. Kita punya jalan banyak teruk ma

2-auto rain/ light sensor

3-LED position lamp (a bit feel fuhhh kecewa its not DRL)

4-push start button (korean car yes. japanese car only few brand)

5-Protonic 7 speed shiftronic CVT gearbox pair with 7 speed paddle shifter. this is most part i like

6-a little soft touch dashboard on preve. its look and feel conti sometime. cruze, overpriced elantra, forte, inspira/ lancer, sylphy i touch all hard plastic. but i agree that Forte did do a good job. their plastic feel premium but personal view, i like design Cruze more follow by Preve' compare to other C segment i mention above. and including Mazda 3 also. Chevy Cruze very stylish their dasboard but sayang its hard plastic. So my choice is Proton Preve which lot a bit continental car. clean and simple. i like it. nevermind if you dont like it but deep in my heart i very like the design especially the material they use. for hard plastic material in preve i think, need a bit improvement. but again nevermind. the most dashboard design i dont like is Inspira/ Lancer. Sorry if my taste not same with yours.

7- ESC of course

8- also 4 airbag. in C segment (malaysian market) only Kia Forte offer you 6 airbag. Mazda 3, Ford Focus i tak pasti. premium C segment cant compare la

9-wifi 4g. i thk only Preve' in Malaysia can offer 4G wifi access to internet surf in car

and not to forget a new 1.6 CFE engine. ya its lag but nevermind bcoz dia hanya akan tunjuk taring lepas 2000 rpm. also very fun la i play2 with paddle shifter in S mode at highway. test drive berfore. banyak syok la.
http://static.lowyat.net/style_images/1/fo...icons/icon1.gif

so find yourself who's competitor in Malaysia can offer very rich gadget at very very affordable price. Kia Forte yes a lot of goodies plus 6 airbag and leather seat lagi, but then how about suspension system. They only use torsion beam instead of multilink suspension.

Test drive and believe it. compare also ride and handling with others ya.

sorry ar current car too low tech smile.gif

btw, where can I do coating for my White? how much does it cost and how long can last? any maintenance needed after coat? i like to see those white that shiny shiny not yellow yellow.

went for 2nd test drive yesterday. this time got a longer route..so managed to used paddle shift until 7th gear..around 130-140kmh..

this time i notice the "lag" that's been highlighted many times in this thread. but that is not a big issue for me. The power after 2000rpm is superb. Maybe when I own this car in the future (hopefully), I would accelerate in S mode before change into D. or even just drive it all the way with the paddle shift..which is more interesting. drool.gif

Overall..
+NVH was good. No much wind noise even at 130km/h.
+I'm not that concern on the FC too much, because it depends on how I heavy I press the paddle. If too concern on FC, then I should just buy a hybrid car.
+Sound system is good. Could be better if install tweeter.
+Rear legroom is superb even though the front seat position is pushed to the back

-The glove box locking could be better. a bit hard to close.
-The rain sensor is big..kinda irritates me looking at that big black portion on the windshield.
-Rear seat is a bit straight..like persona. Could be better.

my SA said now will have less potong q cos u need pay booking only they key in to order the car.
the booking siap with ur personal details and colour preference so i guess if u wait too long or u notice ur car given to a person who booked later than u, can lodge a complain to Proton and that dealer will be investigated.

i've tried paddle shift in S mode and D mode..

In D mode, after a while dropped gear, it will back to auto..

In S mode, its totally like manual.

*
i'm not dsz. just advice only, u can change to 17@18 inch as long as its within the rules of thumb not more than 3%. Inspira in 18 look good, but did compromised the comfort coz the profile already 40, which means really low. I think 17 inch is the best bet if u insist. But expect sacrificing a bit on comfort n please use new tyres, not 2nd hand one. Safety first.

I waited this car since last year so I went to book the car before 4 hrs of official launch last Monday.

Test drive the car on last Saturday.
The car is moving slowly when I switch from N to D without pressing the accelerator pedal. Then I tried to pressed softly on the pedal but i don't feel the car is accelerated. A bit disappointed, really don't understand why Proton tune the car to this preference.

i'm not dsz. just advice only, u can change to 17@18 inch as long as its within the rules of thumb not more than 3%. Inspira in 18 look good, but did compromised the comfort coz the profile already 40,  which means really low. I think 17 inch is the best bet if u insist. But expect sacrificing a bit on comfort n please use new tyres, not 2nd hand one. Safety first.

Maybe we should compile all the important Q and tag it on first page, for QnA section.

Questions on the initial pickup, the wielding and all sorts related to Preve

Agreed. Being in V5 already means we may have already encountered quite a number of redundant questions from future preveians... Having a FAQ shall definitely help a lot.

Well, who's up to the challenge of compiling this? icon_idea.gif

I am in dilemma now, i actually got 3 options to choose, any experts here can give me some advice...

1) '08 Vios G spec @ RM55,000
2) Preve CVT executive @ RM62990
3) Preve CVT Premium @ RM72990

which one should i take? I actually quite keen to take '08 Vios G spec @ RM55,000.... i viewed the Vios already, well maintained at Toyota Service Center, low mileage, careful owner....

headache now....

Preve only Premium is worth it, as the other 2 siblings kinda low in spec and different engine, might be under power, depends on your driving style.

I suggest go for Vios since you know the car and you save almost 20k, use it on something else.

This some of the Q that is frequently asked which i believed not for Preve only.

Maybe this list would answer u my friend:

1. Full Tank Gas
2. Smart Tag (Sometimes with T&G & sumtimes they don't
3. Steering Lock
4. Umbrella
5. Tint Voucher (for non-Premium Variant)
6. Sand-Blast (Certain SA only)
7. Maybe even some discount?

Hell, like i'm the expert in this... laugh.gif Maybe other member can add summore?

08 vios is previous gen or dugong?
take new car better bro. 5 yr warranty. my family got 1 vios also, 2007. always maintain at toyota sc, but the last time service kena quote kaokao 2k+ change this and that. so even if engine well maintained, headache will surely come after 5 years usage on wear and tear parts.

bro '08 vios is dugong loh.... i also consider about the warranty part, what i think is if i take this vios compare to preve premium, there is a gap of RM17000, vios no more warranty, if there is any part failed, i still have RM17000 to repair....

but i need new car for sales purpose, i need to travel around Johor and Melaka, always long distance and i drive with heavy foot + F1 style icon_rolleyes.gif , so i need extra active safety features which can be found in Preve compare to this dugong.....

what is the % rate for second hand car loan?
If %rate for 2nd hand car is 3.5%, loan 90% for 7 years, mthly installment RM734,

if preve premium, %rate is ard 2.7%, loan 90% for 7 years, mthly installment RM918, difference by RM184....

bro, at the end of 7 yrs loan, ur vios will be 11yrs and selling as 3rd hand. any resale value against Preve also go down drain liao..
if ur company subsidising fuel for ur travels, the better FC of vios against Preve also go down the drain..
i can only think of resale value and better FC as advantage.. sorry. cos in terms of specs, features, safety, handling, looks and comfort, its a no brainer.
unless u like the badge then is a different story.

No doubt having a brand that is well known is good but Preve is not bad either. Very rarely, that 2nd hand cars are problem free unless of course you buy them from your relative. Saving the RM20K may not be wise because there may be hidden problems in 2nd hand car. As far as possible, get a brand new car.

used dugong vs new Preve, hmmm is it that hard to decide? Furthermore if you travel long distance a lot, the Preve is safer, more comfortable and moves faster.

This morning before going to work my sister (who owns the first gen Vios) saje-saje took a look at the Preve brochure and was reading the specs, particularly the accesories and features.

She then look up at me and ask me how much, I answer 73k. Then she ask "73k, lowest spec ah?", I answer her that's the highest spec, 1.6 with turbo. An incredulous expression flashed across her face rclxms.gif rclxms.gif (her vios was RM84k)

She also ask me how was the test drive, I just answer "very fast", malas nak explain to wimmin driver tongue.gif tongue.gif

At the spot welding, there is a bit of a gap. On heavy rain water might sip into it when open the door.

Do you have any temporary solution to seal the gap. Glue/silikon. A DIY solution.

The accident this morning at Batu 3 Shah Alam remind me how important Reinforced Safety Structure and side airbang should be a mandatory in features in Malaysia.
so  please consider Preve instead of Vios.

Safety First>> than only FC  thumbup.gif

Atleast Proton now willing to give 5 years warranty. Last time was only extended version which need to pay more money every month thumbup.gif

If Proton fail us again, I, as one of their fanboi will also lose my hope with them sweat.gif

anyone else did't see the Kia Picanto Image? is there any problem with ImageShack.

My friend said Proton invite Fireman try to cut the Reinforced Safety Structure, but the have failed to cut because too strong
After training have been given to the Bomba, then only the manage to cut the frame with special technique

about the gap, afaik, the production will have the filler wire/metal to coverup the gap. But better check it when receive the car. It shud be there. About water sipping, it wont rust cost all metal is galvanised metal n there are lots of holes around any car. If not,all will be rusted easily, but still insist checked whether the filler wire is there or not.

About turbine unit from borg wagner, not only vw, audi,n skoda used it, ford ecoboost n volvo also using the same turbine.

It used water-cooled bearing casing n can stand high temperature up to 1050 celcius.

This question also will raise up, why use timing belt? Then the answer given to me both systems, chain or belt have pros n cons. If not, why vw also opt for belting, n ford ecoboost also using the same thing. It just we always exposed to japan n korean techs, we left the part on europe techs. Cozz campro based engine is develop by lotus, n the design of course based on what they familiarise before, europe based. Thats why coolant used by campro based engine is the same type u found in the contis,rather than the japs. Remind u, taking care of coolant is really important for conti based engine, dont simply add up water.

And punch cvt using metal belting rather then rubber belt as in some others, thats why rubberband effect is not appear. The lag is not rubberband effect. Just google for further understanding.

Im a layman, so, cfe,iafm+ n cvt is not the most state of the art tech in the world, but not either outdated one. Just for example, iafm+ already comes with new generation 32 bit ecu easy-u from continantalag/siemens vdo, while ford 1.6 duratech ti vct only used 16 bit application, that that ford engine is the current one. Not saying iafm+ is better than ford duratech ti vct, it just that iafm+ is not as outdated as people might think. Using punch cvt does help a lot on catering the wieght of preve compare to flx se, thats why century sprint is not that far from flx se. If use mitsu auto, then it will be a big gap.

Have u heard the word gear ratio can immitate torque? Being having infinite ratio give cvt advantages compare to manual@auto gbox. The ratio is really wide, so that it will choose suitable ratio accordingly to the weight. While in conv at, the engineers have to test every ratio n choose the best n balance one with power n fc, while cvt, just mapping n the cvt will adapt iself. Thats why it has its own tcu n adaptive function.

U can take a look at manual preve sprint time, its the same as cvt based flx se. But manual based flx se sprint better than manual preve. Maybe can ask dares to check up the owners manual book since he owned flx se cvt. It supposed to be there.

That is my layman explaination. Cant explain further coz not engineer, just convey the word from friends.

last time was inform around 10.5 scnd +-. But this is not official. Shud wait for the official one coz still cant confirmed yet. Also been informed, the century sprint in bold n preve is in D mode, not L or S mode, but of course, just 1 driver only. More weight, expect slower. But need to wait until the engine matured enough coz being die cast iron based, everything still tight when new, give time to loose, maybe around 5k-10k, then, it wll perform better, fc also become better.

Finally test drove the car. The welding issue is there since there are gap in all the cars in Glenmarie Showroom.

The acceleration is pretty slow. The old persona has better pickup then the preve. NVH from outside is good, but engine noise can be heard till the rear passenger.

Handling and Suspension is Top Notch. Gotta give proton a big applause for that!

But i wonder how the heck did proton get the 0-100 9.6secs figure.

Its like saying 1 piece is better than 2 piece door, same as saying saga/savvy has better n strong doors compare to preve@ any other makes. Shud check the t, h, s, n & another h@k that also used door sash. But the cosmetic, with filler,it will look better. Without it, u will see 4mm-6mm plasma braze@spot. The filler wont make it strong,just cosmetic purpose, but the braze@spot is. But still insist to check on the filler part when received the car coz production one shud come with those.

i just did.. but its so slow mang..seriously. spend 30 mins with it around 12 just now at glenmarie. Even drag race with a collegues' persona base line. I wonder how proton got that figure. Response is slow especially from still. I know about the clutch disengage thing when u press the brake. But still is so slow compared to a persona.

I dont understand the tuning. Even the SA also says the same about the tuning. The RPM goes high to get the car moving. To get a good FC u need the power at low RPM. This i press till 4k rpm for normal acceleration.
If u guys drive a 2.0 NA car, u rarely go above 2.2-2.5k rpm in normal acceleration.


Added on April 23, 2012, 1:37 pmi think we should ask, those who says the acceleration is good, what car do u drive? If those who are accustomed to 1.8-2.0L cars, they will say otherwise.

So if one of us are unfortunate and there is a gap, what can the SA do? take it back to SC or take it back to HQ to fix it? I hate to be seeing the car almost reaching my hand and got taken away again. If SC can fix these stuff I can drive it over immediately.

There is gap on the units i saw, but not as bad as the picture of ericmaxman. Not so big and noticeable. i can ignore that welding issue.

diff way of getting gooc fc.

the more u press, the higher the cvt rev. it will move more eagerly. this will take you to ur desire speed faster, hence u waste less fuel to get to that speed.
if you press less, it rev less. it will move from stand still slower, but the acceleration is constant till you reach your desire speed. even more fuel saving..

in auto it is low rpm coz it has a fix gear ratio. the gear have to climb up the rev range. hence it always start from low rev....

you just dun understand how cvt works...

For me, I personally feel its faster (my gut and feel) than my last test drive with a Forte 1.6sx, and my current car, which is an old wira 1.6xli manual. I didn't like Forte's 1.6sx performance but loved everything else about it, but it felt slower than my wira, so I thought its something to do with auto I suppose.

Not a fan of CVT either, especially on my bro's Lancer GT. On the other hand, I loved Forte 2.0 sx performance. Feels like it smokes the Lancer GT.

msian in general are very used to normal AT gearbox. very hard to train an old dog....

anyway since this days the gearbox are all so f smart can adapt to driving style etc... its probably just a matter of training the gearbox n ecu to fit your driving style. this is the case with many newer car.. even those like waja...

Not a fan of CVT either, especially on my bro's Lancer GT. On the other hand, I loved Forte 2.0 sx performance. Feels like it smokes the Lancer GT.
*
the 1.6 Forte SX is underpowered i'll tell u that. I smoked a few LGTs with my Forte at still a few times. I love to drag race with my housemate's LGT lol sampai die xmau.. Yeah i still think conventional auto torque convertor gearbox > CVT in terms of acceleration. If wanna compare FC also about the same la. 7.5-7.8L/100km average drive.

Official figures for the preve is 8.4l/100km.

its not fair to blame the cvt alone for fuel consumption...

fuel consumption depends alot on engine, style of driving, weight, aerodynamic, etc etc...

This is average driving and official specs for the preve. Cant judge much until one of u get the car on the road biggrin.gif

I can comfirm the boot can be opened remotely by pressing and holding the unlock button for 3 or 5 secs. (cant remember)

If you wanna do performance mod, get the IAFM+ manual.

The CFE variant is almost at the limit of the CVT's torque tolerance range.

Yeah, so for a 1.6 car you get (presumably) 2.0 performance, but you gotta pay for it. In D mode, the FC should be better.

msian in general are very used to normal AT gearbox. very hard to train an old dog....

anyway since this days the gearbox are all so f smart can adapt to driving style etc... its probably just a matter of training the gearbox n ecu to fit your driving style. this is the case with many newer car.. even those like waja...

This remind me a question - is the Preve cvt same like e.g Invecs III kind of adaptive transmission, will adapt to driver driving behaviour hence adjustment?

We are still talking about a 1.6 engine right?

150Nm is a fair amount of torque for a 1.6l engine, Campro or otherwise. I was just wondering why the non-turbo 1.6 campro is being called sluggish, instead of other 1.6 engines.

regarding reverse camera...
i belek belek the bosch user manual for preve that u can find inside the glove box..
i found a section about reverse camera together with a picture showing a reverse camera in action on the bosch lcd..but there is a word 'optional' in bracket beside it...so, i think u can upgrade to reverse camera, but need to do with proton sc kot...
the user manual is quite extensive lar..

i'm not dsz. just advice only, u can change to 17@18 inch as long as its within the rules of thumb not more than 3%. Inspira in 18 look good, but did compromised the comfort coz the profile already 40,  which means really low. I think 17 inch is the best bet if u insist. But expect sacrificing a bit on comfort n please use new tyres, not 2nd hand one. Safety first.
*
"i'm not dsz.". nevermind.
so 17" can la. banyak syok la ini macam. previously i just worried if change new 17" sport rim will effect proton/ lotus handling. for ride i thk a litlle bit not comfort anymore compare to stock rim but i thk in term of comfort/ ride it a not a huge different compare to 16" stock rim. so if not a huge different, so its ok la for me.

correct me if i wrong. and ya of coz i'll use new tyres, a good new tyres. agree too safety 1st that why i very excited with Preve. 4 airbag + ESC +ABS + EBD + BA and a good braking system to make our journey safe

went to see the preve for the 3rd time. the exterior design are quite ok for me but not the rear. interior quite good but the design for the meter cluster
not very impressive. myvi look better than preve. huge boot with impress any people. interior very spacious but the rear head clearance look low for me. hope proton take a look a the welding point of the door. shoddy worksmanship. 1 unit have chip paint at the welding area. hope its only on
the display unit and not to be delivered to buyer.
