Dunno can ask proton to repaint for me... i dunno what color code also...
my door got three patch not color properly so maybe can ask them repaint then paint this small scratch.

Dunno is it possible to repaint...i have the sierra glow there. after repaint dunno it will stick on it or not..

Mat79 is it advisable to ask proton repaint?  not sure if the paint will stick on it or not? will they take off all the old paint and repaint? or just spray it then apply clear coat? what i worry is the paint spray will kena other place... maybe will also torn after a while...cause the sierra glow layer is very smooth... dunno the paint can stick there or not after repaint my passenger door...small patch got three patch around 2 inch wide each. only can be seen under the sun or light..at 25 or 30 degree angle..

and this is another thing here...the casing gap is too large.... today morning...my coin get into the hole...let you see the video i took...near the gear lever there. I just worry the 10 cent will destroy my cvt gear...is that the place the gear place? or got cover? how to take out coin that gets inside already...after toll plaza i put my coins on top of the cover there...it gets inside when i want to retrieve it...

Lol. Very true. On both counts. Defensive driving in Malaysia is almost non-existent. Everyone is an immortal boy-racer. Common sense? Not too common unfortunately.

On the issue of CVT coasting in N. Bolded parts were my questions, the regular text is Kristof's answer, red text is my comment.

Maybe all of u can decide which will be a better day to meet up since quite a number of members declined to RSVP for Saturday. If more ppl can make it on Sunday, then I guess it would be better to change the date accordingly.

Only the owner and god knows 

Anyway, instead of paying RM300++ for a reverse cam, I'd recommend that you spend the money on a in-car camera, those that point to the front of the car and records while you drive.
*
Welllll helloooooo thereeee wub.gif

Lol. Reverse cam for the preve? That's a bit much though innit? It's not like the car is that huge sweat.gif

Do agree on the car-recorder though. Seems like a worthwhile investment.

This whole month has been a month of letdowns la.

-stupid loan no news yet
-car no news either
-when doing my rig, multiple things out of stock
-asked friend to help assemble rig, cannot turn on
-finally can on, cannot install windows
-took like 5 days to sort it out because I was too tired to do it by the time I'm home
-My Ace staff decided to resign
-my Diablo 3 preorder won't arrive tomorrow

FML.

At least I got you guys here wub.gif

Anywayssss, to keep on topic, there's no other place for SG apart from that dude is it?

Fenom, no news from your cuz?

Has anyone initiated (another) attempt with the SG dude for a group price?

I will personally ask him again when I go there doing the thing bro. But since the other day I have personally call & speak with him, he already said no.
But, no harm in trying 1 more time right...

wub.gif

Shit. We're getting very...ghey. The sausage fest getting to me I think laugh.gif

ANYWAYS, I think it'll be more of an impact if a bunch of us go there to see him la. If one person asking on behalf, he'll just think it's gonna be another scam. If a number of us can come and show that we're sincere, I don't see why he would refuse us. That way, he's confirmed to make some cash. High volume, lower margin and all that jazz.

Heck, we could even pay him a dp first to secure a spot.


Added on May 14, 2012, 7:35 pmFull till JUNE?!!!

dafuq?

Guess modus operandi won't work then. laugh.gif he has the volumes coming. No need to reduce margin

I tried that too bro. He said he didn't take DP. I think its because his hands already full. But agreed if we can go in a group that would make a positive impression on him..

Where got ghey meh? Its just *brotherly love*  whistling.gif

Yeah. It's not ghey. It's just very...brotherly. This love we share for our brethren. laugh.gif

*ahem* Only thing about going in a group is that it seems we're gonna beat him into submission or something. Especially if our Godfather is there (pssst Fenom).

Aight, I'm gonna shoot for home. Traffic should have died down by now.

Want to share my experience with EON Glenmarie, did not wait for 1000km service and send over to rectify the following problem.

1) Gear Console Light not bright = Suppose to fixed but only N and R are bright

2) Bonnet released on its own = Fixed

3) Power window auto down and up = Checked and is ok

4) Engine cold start = Checked and is ok

Overall comment on service, poor Service Advisor had the cheek to say, bila ada masalah baru datang sini...feel want to fucuk the advisor but tahan sebab she is pregnant. Somemore, I think they do not know about Preve because it is so new.

Next time, i am going to COE but ask no for X1R and magna trap. Maybe they know better about the car.
About the car manual booklet, mine was printed in Jan 2012 and need to check my warranty is captured by Proton because my SA seems not to have fax the warranty info to Proton for registration

One more question, i cannot pair my Samsung Ace with car HU. Anything wrong and who to ask to troubleshoot?

On another note, did my Sierra Glow...damn long this car treatment, was in the workshop from 12 noon to 7pm. However, learn alot about car detailing from Mr Choong who himself owns a proton. He not only supervise but also the detailing as well. Saw a fellow Preveian there, think is flyguyz38. His car also got SG. Turns out, we got our car from the same dealer. But he do not have HU manual and car tint warranty.

Haih...sometimes, we early Preveians have so many things to troubleshoot...just wish that Proton could have improved the car quality before coming out....

Salam
*
Seems like Samsungs and Preve aren't playing nice. I remember someone mentioned a Samsung phone as well - couldn't link. Have you tried a BT pairing? Or sambung usb?

7 hours is a long, long, loooonggggg time man. How many cars can they do simultaneously?

U know why? becos our gomen lo... according to last few thread, AFTA say must remove import tax and excise duty, but gomen don wan, so penalty to home manufacturer, proton kena, but proton kena nvm, at the end is rakyat kena, then everyone blame proton, but actually is gomen problem.
*
Heh. The rakyat isn't educated enough. Only know how to play the blame game...on the wrong party. Meh. This is kinda OT. Later kena ban hammer from The Hedgehog.

QUOTE(FenomX @ May 15 2012, 03:20 AM)
I might be having a car that might give me power windows problem, it might also give me stupid button quality, it might give me a fugly interior look, it is cheap, but it won't do this to me. Hyundai car owners, please send your car to SC now. Many owner reports the same issue already, it looks like a case where toyota used to have few years back.

My car is equipped with BOSCH ABS that it will cut off the throttle whenever i am pressing on the brake. Safety features still placing in my first priority after all. Not the brand. Malaysian rely on brand too much. It also comes with Fail safe mode which the overall power will be reduce according to the defective component.

- 4 SRS Airbags.
- RESS Chassis structure.
- BOSCH Electronic Brake Distribution feature.
- BOSCH Electronic Stability Control feature.
- BOSCH Anti-Brake lock system.
- 4 Disc brakes.
- MacPherson Strut bar.
- Multilink suspension.

Thanks god, i hope people should spend more on safety features than buying something not worth the money. Drive with confidence. Be responsible, love yourself, friends and family

OMG. Imagine you're with your child at that time. Or spouse. Shit man. What car was that again? a Hyundai was it? God almighty, I hope that never has to happen to anyone, ever. Driver must've been too panicked to think about handbrake or even cutting off the engine - if that is even possible.

I got my black Preve (CFE) yesterday (14/5/2012). Booked during Power of 1 event (last day). I got it from Crystal showroom (HICOM).

1. The car is much much better than the testdrive unit

2. No lagging (very less lagging), the car start to move fast at about 1,500 rpm

3. I'm comfortable with all the features since similar with my previous merc E240.
- the autolight
- the autorain sensor
- the followme home light
- the auto up/down window
- the changing signal (flick the indicator)
- the remote boot

4. Engine sound higher than the Merc E240 (as expected) but not that much. I test with soundmeter (android), the merce is about 65db - 67db, the preve is about 66db - 68db... and my wife saga is about 68db-71db

5. First time driving CVT...and now I understand what does it mean by effortless driving. The car reach at 120km/h so easily.

6. Nice feeling when there are not many preves on the road. People even give me thumbs up when I was on KESAS yesterday.

7. Quite spacious but not as big as Merc E240 (as expected since different segment).

8. Pairing with Xperia Arc very nice... phonebook copied quite fast.

8. Problem....so far only I can hear wind noise from the back (around C pillar) on the left side. This is not happening in the testdrive unit.

Will post pictures later...since having problem with my dropbox.

Finally got your car eh? 'grats! At least someone from the Power of One event is getting it.

QUOTE(Gigabit @ May 15 2012, 10:08 AM)

Tried BT pairing did not work, will try USB later. I also tried using Nokia, HU do not like Nokia as well. I think only iphone and blackberry can pair.

They were doing 4 cars, 2 preves, 1 elantra and 1 audi a4. Then along the way, one fortek owner came to change side mirror and repolish bonnet because he tore off the rear spoiler.
Off topic, this new elantra is a big hype, you pay RM100k plus but you get 16v dohc engine? Our Preve is better, AT is so yesterday already.
*
The new elantra is fugly imo. The Forte looks nicer. So, the most that place can do simultaneously is 4 cars then? Fuh. Slow gila like that.

QUOTE(shareDARK @ May 15 2012, 10:27 AM)
this is not true.

I paired with my Galaxy Ace. MP3 Music can stream through bt without any problem.

The only problem is when making calls/receiving calls. I can hear the voice clearly unfortunately at the other side couldn't hear me clearly. Maybe the positioning of the mic. Wonder where the mic would be.
*
Ah. I stand corrected. Apologies.

QUOTE(shareDARK @ May 15 2012, 10:35 AM)
first u need to enable the bluetooth at HU at setup if i'm not mistaken. then enable bluetooth at your android and let the phone be discover. they key in the pin.

definitely can bro.
*
Bolded part. I think I remember my sister wanted to pair to her car's HU but couldn't...she forget to make her phone discoverable. Distance shouldn't matter that much Gigabit. If still cannot, try making it discoverable, and restart phone, and check if it's on discoverable again. At least I think that's what I did with my sister's phone. I wasn't a samsung though, but it was an android.

she can't give me a chasis number, iCare called her he don't pick up phone call but pick up my calls and said will give me ans by 5.

After 5 if not yet getting my car (NO FUCUKING EXCUSES OR WHATSOEVER CAUSE IT WILL DEFINITELY NOT ACCEPTED BY ME) and i'm going to fucuking her and the whole dealer company.

will post the picture, location, phone number and everything here tonight.

tomorrow report to the media.

what an unethical business ethic codes.

now i suspect she pass my blue lagoon to those datuk or tun members then try to delay me by saying that the black is available.

WTBF? Wah. Now this really is too much. If she can't deliver, she should just say so. Not drag you around like that. Feck. You should really do something now. Ensure that she will never, ever, have a job in the sales line. If she wants to claim this and that, she had better have it in b&w. Else, don't bother man.

Anyways, regarding the good SA or dealership...I think should only put in their names if they managed to sort things out for you, in a speedy manner. This doesn't include if someone skipped his allocation and you end up getting it. Only if they personally played a role in getting the car for you.

Well, I think better we put two things in 1st page, first the "Black-LIsted Dealer/Branch/EON whatsoever" and secondly, what say u If we update the "List of the bravest Proton Supporters" with everyone's booking place/dealer? That way we can trace back those who already got the car at which branch or dealer. But this one will cause u some hardship WhiTeLighTer... Hehe

This would be very troublesome to whitelighter I think. Kesian him laaaa. Nvm, next TT session we should all buy him a good, cold pint of beer glass of Teh Tarik.

Doesn't seem like a bad idea though. Just troublesome for our dear TS.

And the engine is really can feel the heat lo.. also the seat adjust thingy very flimsy especially the adjust height one, but can adjust until very sibeh high, good for lady driver who is short biggrin.gif other no much complain, audio quality very nice biggrin.gif very clear sound and bass good enuf.. i tot is the plastic rattle, i think is the plastic paper cover the door rattling lol..

Well for the bold part I believe U can get it more from heer Mr. Chin aka Aloha. If every aspect of what the owners have found here is adhered by u or ur showroom definitely ppl will start "serbu" ur showroom one day..
Damn he resigned already. Mydin offered him better pay as their PR Exec. Or do you wanna advertise this SA in Mydin? I can give t a shot brows.gif

Hahaha.. Damn I hope my wife doesn't know that u, dares, me have been so many times already been related to bromance...Damn... Nonetheless, we all share the same love to this car I agree. (Really wish to see u cross swords with dares though..)

I know that also, that's why I already stated he'll be the one burdened with the task. Hehehe.. But I don't mind if u guys PM & I'll compile on his behalf. When Done I just pass back to him to post to first page all those who booked at which showroom then ppl can see from which showroom we all got our car from first. Just a thought though]

Kindly note that Teh Tarik is not nice to be served chilled.

Long time no see Valence already bro. He's been MIA since which thread forgot already... innocent.gif


Added on May 15, 2012, 6:58 pmAnd u marquis my man, where the hell have u been. MIA the whole day & suddenly popped up with so many thoughts oredi. Still stuck in jam or waiting for the traffic like yesterday..?

Ergh. Lazy to bold out parts tongue.gif

Your wife is your wife. You however...dares and I have special rights over your...sword. LOL!

Wei. Enough with the bromance already. Nanti we all really ikut pintu belakang. Dun wannnnnnn.

please tunjuk ajar guys..will get my preve by this week..
1-if let say i got this number wwt 9xxx, now the running number is 2xxx, do i need to wait until it reaches 9xxx to be able to egister at JPJ?or straight away can reg?
2-if let say i want previous series..one of the popular numbers (as stated in JPJ web) eg wwr/wwq xxx/xxxx....how do i proced ?
3-usually if tendered number, usually how much the money need to put to win..?
*
based on what i've read yeah, so wait for others to correct me if I'm wrong. Just to provide some rough info

1 - Iianm, need to wait for the number to come up first before can buy...unless you bid for it. Not too sure here.
2 - Go to the JPJ in setapak (it's setapak right? Damn, can't remember the name of that place). Meet the Ketua Pengarah or something like that. Search the FnF sub-forum. I remember someone relating his experience there.
3 - My uncle told me they have the price for a previously won number. So I guess can use that as reference. Where to get this info? He said he saw it at their bulletin board.


Now I got some questions of my own for you guys. For the special series. Is a 3 digit number (with two repeating numbers) considered a special number? Also, is there anyway I can check if the number was
"collected" after it has been tendered?

@Dhuang

I've been lurking. Still in the office. Was caught up in a meeting from 3 to 5. Then lurked some more tongue.gif Waiting for traffic to die...and friends to confirm if we're meeting up tonight laugh.gif

kia forte. i have seen the car. it is of much better quality. just that the price is no match with preve but within my budget.

question, every preve will come with sluggish start, they will remap only after 1st service ? or the subsequence batch they will get rid of this ?
*
Not every car will have a sluggish start. Some have experienced the car being okay at the get-go. Depends if you've gotten the car that has been "recalibrated" or not.

Also, I feel that I should comment on you getting the Forte. I too, have considered the car. However, upon inspecting the interior...I felt that I couldn't live with it. Since I'll be looking at the interior more than the exterior, I had to like it enough to be able to live with it. Then again, this is subjective to the individual.

In terms of specs, it's about the same - with the Forte costing more. Give the Preve a few months and all the problems should iron itself out. I'm sure the Forte had some issues during it's initial launch as well - this happens to any manufacturer.

It's still personal preference though - if it's the badge and perceived "status" that you're looking for, the Forte is definitely for you. It's a Korean after all. smile.gif

Considered both. Went with Preve. Considered the Forte again. Still stayed with the Preve.

Aesthetics is a very subjective thing though. So if you feel that the interior is ok, then go for the Forte. It's a good car, priced well enough for an import, and has been in the market long enough for the problems to be ironed out.

I personally don't like how it looks. The centre console that is. Everything else seems fine. I'd strongly suggest test driving a Preve with a re-mapped ECU and then test driving the 1.6SX.

Would give you a better indicator of which car performs to your liking.

I believe, there's no explanation for this that will justify why it happen to us, the prebookers..their (Proton) whole booking & allocation system is simply terrible from the start..& surely they will not admit it (their weaknesses)  mad.gif It's ashamed that Proton commit themself to be better (in their widely advertised tagline) & produce a global car..but cannot simply make it right locally. How on earth they will success globally..i'm very2 sceptical on this  doh.gif

Committed to be better for the angmohs only

Back to the old days I guess. Heh.

Will see how the car fares when I finally get it. This is potentially the last proton I ever buy pending on performance, condition and reliability of the car c/w the service that is provided.
