Good morning to all of u & a very good for Wub Div Members!

Finally, it's Friday again, Thank God..

Let me recap a bit..

morning bro...how is ur FC?is it become better/good?

At Alor Setar SC now..doing the first service. As usual, it's my wife's car but i'm the one who will do the service Bored waiting from 8am. Luckily got free Wifi...

By the way, the Preve already got long & deep scratch at lower rear bumper yesterday. My wife parked the car at her office at usual space & got reckless driver reverse his/her car & hit the Preve..dont know who did that, else sure kena fucuk by my wife...

As in same with preve? Front door trim soft back door trims hard?

Mine just popped up again last night...
Was driving to Damansara Damai when i realized it's opened.
Couldn't hear the beep over my Dream Theater song...

that y some say preve level is almost as camry.. but just becoz its 1.6 and with tiger logo some more is cheaper than vios type j, so some stupid malaysian though is cheap unreliable car ..

Good Morning Previans,

I was enjoy driving my Preve after it discharged from service centre last friday after fixed the Fuel Consumption issue RM 0.30 per KM.
Over the week, i have drive on (Non Traffic Jam road with many road bump & traffic, Up hills to Genting Highlands, mon-thurs traffic jam to my office), the average fuel
consumption is about 11.5L/100KM which is about RM0.21- RM0.22 perkm.

I have refill another fuel tank last night, the ODO meter show total estimate 533KM to drive for this full tank refill.
What i noticed, the car utilized a lot of petrol in the heavy traffic jam. This morning when i drive from my home Kepong to Jalan Raja Chulan via Jalan Ipoh and
Jalan Tun Razak, the overall average fuel consumption has reached 13.7L/100KM to my office. While i reached at the most traffic jam area (Jalan Ipoh to Jalan Tun Razak) today, the car average fuel consumption can stood up to
16L/100KM (Non moving traffic). The traffic was smooth after passed Jalan Ipoh, the average fuel consumption slowly drop from 16L/100KM until 13.7L/100Km reached to my office.

Morning Bro Kiapreve

Heh, isn't that still bad? Or issit acceptable since u're always go thru jam and what not?

When going to Genting that day what's the FC reading?

my FC is okay and getting better. currently is around 8.5L/100KM to 9.5L/100KM for mix driving (bias to city driving). Hoping it will get better over time.

Except for that part. Camry the front door and back door are same (half soft and half hard). Preve, the back door is full hard plastic.

Altis is also using half soft touch and half hard plastic (for dashboard and all doors).
Vios is using 100% hard plastic....

Preve is NOT almost as Camry level seriously speaking, fitting and plastic quality wise, lose to Altis. Even the engine is not as refined as altis, i can say it is better than Vios, probably 1 small step below Altis. THe plastic they use is just too thin, which made them squeaky and easily bend, felt like very low quality, especially on the dash and the door, where u press it the whole plastic will bend, not soft-touch where it will sink in, it will sink in and the plastic will bend in together, tis is becos plastic is too thin. U can touch Altis plastic and it is very firm, hard and solid. The next thing is the CVT engine, the sluggish pickup of the car, made my dad so disappointed in the car, he said CVT sound when u lift pedal fiuuuu tat sound is like his 20yrs ago mitsubushi rear wheel drive lancer, which that will caused big problem to the gearbox later on, which he say they need some special gearbox fluid to minimize the sound.

For me, i dont have much issue becos i can live with the CVT sound, but for them, they say if CVT got such sound, then it seems like a failure, why normal GB, even wira 15yrs old also no such sound, but new Preve got. So he owes go proton SC complain, the C-pillar sound the SC tell me is what road tyre noise, i was like WTF. if i off the radio, i heard wind noise coming from front, if i open radio then it is covered by the radio sound. I dont know whether other car got tis problem or not, but i told them rubber problem they din say anything, maybe next time when my disc brake rotor come i will fucuk them for sure. Did anyone got their C-pillar or any rubber changed?

I wouldn't go so far to compare it with Camry, sat
N drove few, very comfortable, fit n finish is very Toyota.

i already ask the SC about the door and they say it's normal...

btw, u still can get the alignment and balancing for free after reaching 1000 km.. yesterday I go to COE for 1k service, my odo already 12xx km and they do the alignment even I'm not asking them to do it...

some modification

maybe it's just the aircond gas empty.. a friend of mine experienced this a few years back with the new savvy.. seems that they did not filled in the aircond gas at the factory.. he sent to SC and get it refilled.. the only problem is the SC guy that handled the aircon issue was not static there, he was on a pool basis with several SC..

Camry is a different class than Preve. To compare altis and preve would be better. Vios can be compared with Saga FL, FLX.

Of course, Preve could improve the fit and finish. I am not complaining about the plastic just that in certain parts it it quite flimsy.

For cvt, not much complain there, the car was bought for ride and handling. I can only afford Preve and buy Preve. If you can afford camry, buy camry. You pay what you get. Just my 2 cents

Bro, tempered with any wiring or use outside bat?
