How come send so sudden?? I tot u EB is running fine...

I didn't realize the OWV really that time, when inspection on first service, the SC clarified that I have OWV and OCV problem. so they've ordered the item and took 1 month to wait until the parts arrived. But my EB is still superb without any other problem u guys mentioned here.

Received my EB yesterday. A lot of things yet to learn about this MPV. BTW, i've noticed that the Spare Tyre is exactly the same with the 4 tyres, with 16"rim. Is that the same with earlier EB? TQ

btw, is the stock security system good enough? if not, what would you recommend?

I was once like you when I've got my car, trying to argue with Proton icare about going to install locktech pedal lock system. As I said that the system will not cut the original wire, but they said that it will still void the warranty because you'll be messing around with the fuse connections...duhh doh.gif

any lag when you press the pedal till the power is available?
*
Not very noticing actually. Hmm, will try to compare with others EB though, coz mine are like when 'tekan' the pedal and it will go like 'biasa' lah. But when tekan harder, it'll start accelerating and can feel the turbo kicks off smile.gif nod.gif

hmm my theory is you need to change the Oil Control Valve lah my friend, coz when i changed mine, the SC told me other than die off when idle or reversing, OCV also can cause your EB will 'makan minyak' a lot nod.gif

tx for the info

will change in next service

btw, do you really feel the FC improves? and how long they need to change?

Ordering the part may take a week or two, but changing the part is not that hard cause the ocv is just below the engine bay only.
