mine at 100 got this slight whistling sound from engine. C pillar on left hand side got wind noise. boot suddenly open wen drivin on mex. petrol consumption gettin better when lookin at instant meter.

full tank with 60km to go gave me bout 304km on trip meter. now current mileage at 500km. hopefully will be better after 1st service.

sometimes my leg aches coz have to tekan accelerator wen drivin. can feel d heaviness. not like my previous persona which moved infront effortless. another problem is wen goin on slight slope or hill, feels like labor... the car struggles to go up slope, even if a small one.

The wind noise in my car sounds like it comes from the front instead of the back.
Had that boot popup episode the other day...terkejut aku... Hahaha...
And last but not least...we do need to press hard on the accelerator to have the car move forward...then dengar the engine mengerang...macam kena paksa...
Huhuhu...

the whistling noise should be normal for CVT, no? cos mine also got whistling sound starting from 80 or around 100km/h, bro, if u service u car, and solve those problem, do help us by ask ur SC what did they do to solve those problem, cos we can ask our SC to do the same to solve those problem we have. Anyone who did solve their car problem do ask the mechanic what they do ya biggrin.gif sharing is caring biggrin.gif

i think wind noise from front is still ok, i heard louder wind noise from mazda 6 and altis (drove both car before and now driving altis for sometimes). c pillar noise is more prominent, but only if u put ur head or ear near to the c pillar only u can really notice it.

I think after drive preve, hard to drive normal car, cos just now i press pedal the altis pecut LOL.. i but really i see the meter, how pecut also 20-30km/h edi when move out of junction. I think preve throttle is very deep, even for the brake. Dunno is altis brake worn out or not, cos press then like very hard edi, preve one press down can press very deep in. preve throttle is the same thing, i owes press like how i press normal car, which is like maybe can rev 3-4k edi wan full throttle liao, preve still got alot to press in, i really press in only when at D can reach 3k, still not yet pedal to metal summore..

mine also 1st batch le, my number is 890 >< they very early ship to kuching liao, i think by cargo ship takes around 1 week to arrive at sarawak normally.. then use trailer to miri also need time, so east msia very delay.. small market here la anyway smile.gif so far i drive preve i never see any other preve around the city.. alot hummer, ninja king and cipet Bruneians all drive imported car >< their car all is direct import from origin country mostly, their camry a little bit different one, but 1 thing la, their car all no reverse sensor one, i dunno why, maybe their skill too good biggrin.gif

Remember ask them how they fix ya smile.gif i wait 1k service only go fucuk SC gao gao.. rear suspension sound, dashboard rattle, c pillar, sluggish start but getting used to it already. One tip for driving, i think pedal cannot press like sudden press too much, no use, u need to press gradually, but if u wan more powerful, u press faster, u wan smooth, u press smooth, cannot got sudden movement one biggrin.gif i try press pedal alot, the car engine roar only, the car only pecut after gain momentum, resulting in sudden stab forward. then i try gradually, play with timing, car go out smoother and faster/same biggrin.gif

yup, better list down all problem.

looks like window lining and/or door rubber seal may be the culprit of wind noise due to poor workmanship at the assembly line.
