chasis number is representing a finished product. so its more like a serial number. the most important is the engine no. my engine number is 75xx.
and i heard start from 7xxx. its the third batch.... dont know why they called it third batch.

car should arrive at showroom today and i ask them to do the ecotint tint direct from showroom before hand over to me... hassel free. :-D

My Chasis number is 31xx but my engine number is 84xx ? I got my Preve CFE in mid of May.
How to explain ?

Yesterday I paid the Down Payment and Loan, should getting the my silver preve by this Saturday.
BUT this morning my SA called me, said the color is White not Silver, he overlook the color. What to do? DP already paid and loan already signed.
I also don't want to wait again, been waiting for 2 months. So just accept this White Preve. Then he said will pump me a full tank petrol as a consolation gift. Am I lucky?
*
Silver and White is my 1st and 2nd choice..both looks nice on preve..dont worry.

Good to hear that!  rclxms.gif
I always eagerly wanted to try the car at Cameron Highlands, but due to busy schedule, I think I only can make it on July or a week before Raya.

Regarding overtaking cars there on windy and sloppy road, can you use paddle shift instead of [S] mode? Is it possible?
10 days after I collect my car, I went Singapore and leave the car at my apartment car park bay for 6D5N without touching it at all, when I came back, I immediately go to start and warmup the engine, I did not hear any weird sound. Also, I never hear any noise every* morning I start the car, does that mean I am spared from OWV issue?
*I had onlyonce, within these 10 days after collect the car, I heard "over-crank" sound, but only that once*
*
I prefer S mode more than paddle shift..some how felt S mode respond faster than Paddle shift. Btw..just back from CH moment ago....uphill consumed lot more petrol than downhill...

Fact:
Exora Bold = CFE+CVT
Preve = CFE+CVT

What people think:
Exora Bold = No sluggish pickup
Preve = Sluggish pickup because specifically tuned for fuel efficiency

Reality:
Preve fuel efficiency not any better than Exora Bold.

One Way Valve

One of the emerging common problem for Preve.

Symptom: Over cranking sound when starting ur car after few days/hours engine shut off.

If this only happened two times a month, do we call it OWV problem ?

Just send my car to check the over crank starter sound n the SC confirm it's the OWV problem but take 2-3 weeks for the parts to arrive. How come it take so long n told me take about 3 days to change the OWV. WTH.

ODO already 12+++ this OWV problem only happen to me twice if i not mistaken. Asked SC at Jalan Pahang check it and they did't found any problem with it.Asked me to monitor again, if the problem persist then only come back to them.After that, i did't face this kind of problem anymore.

Usually i start my engine everyday and travel more then 200km per day.

Thats a lot of mileage..In that case only those happened frequently need to chnage the OWV.

If u are from Penang then go to auto city juru n look for the sc by the name of Razak, he might look lansi n cocky in appearance but actually he is very helpful n nice. Bring your car along n tell him what happen to your over crank sound.

ok.my 1k service also did there... .you send your car for 5k service ?
