Oh... just the smell is intrusive and tat means outside air also easily can come into car, if like tat means the air condition in car is no good, might got exhaust smell in the car later no good, should fucuk them.

QUOTE(ayamxxx @ Jun 12 2012, 03:32 PM) guys who own preve, it is better in terms of u dont feel the jerk of gear changing and loud engine noise cos the car is running at 1.9k when u drive 80km/h. But there is some CVT sound tat whether u can accept or not, for me i already used to the sound and i prefer CVT anytime anyday if given me the choice, since i drive honda city iDSi, i never look back what your opinion on CVT gearbox? does it feel best if compare to conventional auto gb? |

QUOTE(ahaidir777 @ Jun 12 2012, 03:44 PM) honda city also got some sound one, i think should be cvt sound, cos my friend say is bearing problem sound, but i recall it sound like preve cvt sound when u release pedal at low speed. But city NVH very poor, booming sound, road noise and engine is noisier than preve alot alot.. |

QUOTE(archiq @ Jun 12 2012, 11:41 PM) tried already, the chart just wont show the statistic, will only show the data u key in... damn.. just the L/100km column not showing anything..Added on June 12, 2012, 11:53 pmjust fuelled up 43L drove 479km+/-, 50-60% city driving, cos i drive 283km 90% highway, then left half tank i drive normal 100% city driving. I think if mixed the FC is still ok ok la.. if 100% city driving really pain in the ass. i feel the car if u can pecut to 60-70km/h then u lift pedal maybe u get better FC, becos if u slowly go up to that cruising speed, the FC to accelerate the car is normally 11-15L/100km like tat, if u drive 60-70km/h to 80-90km/h, the FC is around 5-6L/100km, so u get to 60-70 then u lift pedal, i think better FC la compare u slowly accelerate to 60-70, cos around 30-40km/h, the instant FC is like 10-11L/100km. Tis time i pump petronas becos all shell closed edi >< see if petronas give me better FC or not, i wan pump Shell partly becos i work for Shell and i want get bonuslink and AmEx point lol..

QUOTE(Junn @ Jun 13 2012, 09:13 AM) ben, i saw ppl done before but you need to know what you're doing if you're doing it yourself. Oh.. normally they dismantle dashboard to install or install at engine side? those shop normally can do?Lots of dismantling to do. The material can be obtained easily. for me I want to add more at the gearbox area, the jet engine sound kinda irritating at times.

QUOTE(Rick Federer @ Jun 13 2012, 10:01 AM) Yeah. Give it a try on a clear road less traffic. But make sure you put on your safety belt and wear a helmet too! Great to hear that mate! ur review is so fantastic, not only praising but critisizing some parts of the car, and everything is well written. Ur review have more depth than most of the automobile web out there, frankly speaking. Looking forward to your "article" on servicing the car Added on June 13, 2012, 10:11 am Just came back from SC after spending one hour relating my problems and test drive for them. They were very patient to give me all the time I want. They try to get everything fixed by Friday so I am going to miss my preve for 2 nights. Yup, I promised to give them a review if they take good care of my baby. I will publish my 5 pages as Part 1 when I get back to office. I also told them I have given a good review of the car too. If you don't mind, can you please put my review link at the first page if it deserves a spot. Thanks. |
