just found out something of my Preve, it's the fuel indicator..

the first day i took the car it's was running low on fuel and the 'distance to empty' was show blinking dash sign, I didn't bother about it because I thought that it's normal as it's was running low on fuel

Then issue came when i pump full tank, i started the engine, and the fuel indicator just went up two bars only ! i thought i didn't complete the refueling and this time really rugi ! But i remember the fuel pump stop on its own and i paid almost RM70+

After that, slowly the fuel indicator went up bar by bar and continued to rise up to 7th bar on the next day and it's stopped. I drove about 4 days now and now the indicator showing the last bar, sometimes will go up again to the 2nd bar  sweat.gif then drop back to the last bar again.

But the issue with 'Distance to empty' Blinking dash sign still persist until now without showing any information of how far could I go with the remaining fuel even with full tank of petrol.

Anyone encounter this issue?  icon_question.gif

i had tried to check the pressure just now... all 4 tyres are 40 psi by default. but the recommended tyres pressure for front and rear is 32 psi and 30 psi as stated at the sticker located at the side of the driver seat door... which is really does not make sense when i try pump the pressure in the tyres, the tyres were all seem flat rclxub.gif ... so in the end i pump back to 40 psi again rclxub.gif rclxub.gif rclxub.gif

My SA told me the KpA for the tyre should be 210 for the front & 220 for the rear one. What's that in PsI?
*
210 kPa almost equal to 30.4 psi smile.gif

i have a behavior, always look at the side mirror esp left one while driving so i'm basically trained to react fast when in this kind of situation, normal reaction, it's like the car and me communicate to each.

have to lah paise paise, malaysian driver is like that one, simply cut lane so i always make sure i have space at my left lane abything happened can turn left right away. If no space then i drive slow a bit.

cause i basically right lane driver most of the time at highway.
*
haha... i understand how you feel. kuching also many brainless drivers smile.gif imagine right lane drive 40km/h, second lane 30km/h, and first lane no need to mention... and many driver come out of junction without looking whether got cars or not. my saga hit by pajero a month ago due to the driver say x nampak my big saga under the day and so rush out of junction which hit my back side. now fixing it, need go through pustakom and jpj somemore since its a serious knock down. at night some motorcyclist no open their light, some even use handphone while riding motorcycle (m'sia if use handphone when driving is illegal but not riding motorcycle. biggrin.gif ). so even i very enjoy riding my preve, i still x dare to simple tekan accelerator because i knew, somewhere in every around the corner in kuching, there is a brainless driver around.

i need it actually smile.gif without the visor, when raining and enter the carpark of a shopping mall, open the window and *splash, water from the roof directly fall in my car... a visor can at least lessen the "surprise" when i open the windows. biggrin.gif

mostly i will install it, but dunno how much is it....

i dont think will be that expensive though biggrin.gif my saga last time install cost around RM20. but that time many choices so probably competitive price. so if preve's window visor first come in Kuching, maybe will be cost a lot.
