I just received my car, Elegant Brown | WWX 7XX

Initial review after driving in highway & normal road.

1. There's no replacement for displacement - CFE has good performance, but the torque and power from a 2.0 NA is instant. Still, I've test driven the Preve and I am satisfied with the performance.
2. Speedo has some error, 110 kph on GPS is ~115 in the speedo.
3. Odometer however is accurate - 15 km travelled in GPS is 15 km travelled in odometer.
4. Fuel efficiency is good. I'm getting 7.5 L/100km. Driving the way I usually do. Not babying the car but not stressing it too much either.

That's my initial review of the car. Will update later if I have anything to add.

I have an idling issue that caused the car to stall when I'm just about to move and the A/C disengages. Apparently, then the A/C disengages, the idling goes up & down erratically. This + the low revs when launching caused my car to stall, several times sad.gif

I drive a manual by the way.

Anyway, guys, I need a favour from everyone. I went to the service center yesterday complaining that when I wind the driver's side window all the way up, the door trim seems to move out a little, like something pushing from the inside the door trim. The SC said ALL Preve's have this issue. Do you guys have a similar issue? unsure.gif


Added on June 15, 2012, 9:26 amS**t! My SC also didn't tell me the alignment free before 1000KM!  mad.gif Now have to pay. My car runs off to the left a little... sad.gif

same issue here...

Good morning...

next Monday will go for my 5K service. Yesterday, I went to see the new Camry. Surprise to know that Camry use half soft touch and half hard plastic for dashboard and all doors. I thought Camry will come with full soft touch like Mercedes.

btw, the most fun part of driving Preve is playing with the paddle shifter even in D mode. Normally when stopping at traffic light, I will downshift to gear 1 and when the light turn green, slam the gas paddle and the car will fly nicely.

Yes, the average fuel consumption will slowly increase in the traffic jam or even your engine started without moving your car.

the average fuel comsumption meter will change time to time??
tat day taken car from hometown is 12.3l/100km
now my average fuel comsumption stopped at 10.3l/100km for 1 week+...never change...is it a problem??i never reset it also shocking.gif ...no wonder traffic jam/idling or furios driving now also same icon_question.gif

Maverick Bro,

Have you try to reset Trip A, Trip B, Trip C and the Average meter? i believe it should works. biggrin.gif

Trip a,b,c reset no problem...just never reset the average meter...i reset when pumping another full tank

QUOTE(archiq @ Jun 15 2012, 11:05 AM)
average fc meter is calculating average maa.. if u not reset it, in a long time it will be static... and that's ur true fc... smile.gif
*
i think so...so my true fc is 10.3l/100km all time...
just some forumer say can go up and down all the time...so i ask rather me d is faulty or not ma...cos about 1 week+ not changing...average speed also 30km/h..no change sweat.gif

How will the endorsement appear on the card? It will affect the resale value nonetheless.

Just collected my car, still doing my review work. But something urgent I must share with you all first.

There is a Batch of Preves have to be recalled as I remembered one of our forummer say he saw a chop mentioning "Recall 100% Completed".  This has to do with the Car Battery, where one of the connection handle is giving trouble and will cause your engine to shut off immediately.  I am one of those who got it replaced and I was called to send my car in for service without me asking for it.  I have already confirmed with Service Advisor this morning and it's true they have to fix this issue for those unlucky batch. My batch is 40XX.

My advice is better go check with your SC whether you fall in that batch, and get it fixed immediately before going outstation, Especially Trips That Go Downhill such as Cameron & Genting. But, please don't make a hoo-hah, it's a quick fix and for me I was lucky I never experience engine shut down for the past 12 days.

they calling to go fix the battery thingy?even you didnt face any engine shut off?
are they mention which batch will have this problem?etc...chasis number?

Yup, they are calling us to do a first 1k service without informing about this issue. They prefer not to mention which batch. Anyway, I am happy they called.  They already have the spare part on hand. No need to issue order form and wait for parts to be delivered.

then how i know thier already fix it at 1k service...cos they never mention anything at the bill there

Anyone mind to answer my curiosity..?
Just want to know if there is any remap or setting to be done by SC to improve the response of my Preve CFE..?

still remain a mystery...some say did..some say not...and no offically memo from PE to do remap...
maybe the remap is just a ecu checking by sc to checking for problem only

friend bought an Exora Bold, but the SA, well... did not commit to his promises (on helping with the number plate & NCD transfer... later on his OWV issues)... so my friend pakat with us ramai2 go there, buat2 like interested to buy... after 15-20 minutes chat2 with a few SA there, suddenly my friend came and say "oit, buat pe beli sini, kat sini lah aku beli Bold yg byk problem tu"... we all buat2 terkejut and ramai2 keluar from that showroom... not only us, there are about 4-5 customer also chow... 2-3 days later the SA called him to apologize and gave him freebies so as to jaga face lah... and he did keep his promise to help rectify my friend's Bold OWV issue with their service center...

They never call me at all... I went to service because my mileage already over 1K.

Once there, I did not complain anything about battery nor engine problem. When ready to collect my car, I simply said this car FC quite high and the service adviser told me they already did the engine tuning for me, some more *not so clear what he said* the battery for me free of charge.  sweat.gif
If they fix your battery, you will know bro, your HU will be locked and asked you to re-enter pin code. The clock had been reset. The trip meter also reset (though not sure if this is cause by battery of engine tuning). For my case, my folding side mirrors also out of sync (not folding when lock the car, not unfold when press the button, but can easily fix)
then my car havent fix the battery lor...HU never reset n trip meter also,will do when at 5k service..
what number to enter when HU request for pin? hmm.gif

Hi,

FOR those who solved the OWV problem, may i know which SC you guys go to and how many days you need to leave the car there?

and are you satisfied with the results?

I am from Kepong and planing to settle my OWV problem at any SC either in KL or Selangor area. Looking for an experienced SC.

I try not to leave my car there if it is just because of waiting for spare parts only or with the runaway Service Advisor..sweat.gif
thanks guys.. cheers.gif

i do at ipoh sc,,,car sended there by my bro...3 days to fix it...

u from Kepong and me and kiapreve is so near...should TT togather and checking each other car about problem ma...

guys.. i hv done OWV repair at COSE last two weeks... but i need to leave my car for a week becoz diorang takde stock head gasket ( after they dismantle my top engine baru notice they dont have head gasket stock) end up .. kena tido kat sc for a week.. normally 2-3 days

before repair.. even after 2 hours engine stop bila on ada bunyi... but now.. no more... every morning on.. this sound gone.. happy with the result

but pls take note.. according to thier engineer.. oil retain at VVT spec is 24 hrs... means kalau u leave ur car more than 2 days... bunyi ni mungkin akan ada... it happened to me last weeknd...

and FYI.. OWV case is not handled by CAT... it is handled by SC..
CAT team will take care new complaint on preve only... like my case... CAT resolved my wind noise problem and terminal battery issues...

c pillar wind noise...battery they just change the battery terminal?

yup doesn't make any sense.

btw, will the tires affected if they pump more than 40?

usually car for stokis all come with higher tyre pressure...when collecting car got a check list including checking tyre pressure...if too high they will lower it for u...seen tat SA not doing thier jobs well
u can see at side wall of the tyre maximun pressure the tyre can load...over pressure in tyre if the car not moving ie stockis is ok...if moving time by time will cause tires damage
