QUOTE(wakalah @ Jul 2 2012, 09:09 AM) ... cars steering shaking while braking hard at very high speed like 130km/h? my car has this problem. how to solve it? Should be ABS at work. Brake calipers are clamping/unclamping hard in rapid successions. Sure to have a heavy shudder. QUOTE(Chong_84 @ Jul 2 2012, 09:17 AM) Initially I wanted the white color, then after only realized its not metallic paint. So after some deep thought and discussion with my wife, we change d color from solid white to genetic silver. Being the owner of silver unit, I think that's a good choice. Have you seen Elegant Brown yet? Any comment? QUOTE(GoldenHawk @ Jul 2 2012, 09:27 AM) ABS? Should be ABS again. If it's bad or irregular pads, you should hear it all the time and not just higher speeds. This car is heavy, takes a lot more to stop it. On the topic of breaking, has anyone tried breaking hard @ speeds of, say, 80KM/H? Apart from the lack of break feedback & slow stopping, I hear a "gruuk" sound just before it stops. Sounds like bad break-pads, but I just wanted to know if anyone else experienced similar symptoms. Is it just mine?  This post has been edited by BartS: Jul 2 2012, 10:02 AM |

Is it just mine? thats the right way of how ABS works lah.you'll feel the lack of feedback on the brake pedal and grinding, scraping or buzzing noise will appear. steering shaking however, it couldn't be related to ABS. Didn't experienced this when braking hard in other ABS equipped car. This post has been edited by V12Kompressor: Jul 2 2012, 10:02 AM |

A bit more about hard braking. Let's not forget that our cars have Brake Assist.
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « You may feel you haven't stomped that hard on the brake pedal but in reality, it could be Brake Assist at work. Added on July 2, 2012, 10:10 am QUOTE(fulat @ Jul 2 2012, 09:57 AM) mine dont have C pillar wind noise as i applied the noise cancellation rubber. What's that? Kindly elaborate. other than that is the aircon glook glook sound. Not so sure about 'aircon glook glook sound'. Haven't encountered it yet. This post has been edited by BartS: Jul 2 2012, 10:10 AM |

The steering shaking is like turn 5 degree to left and then 5 degree to right. left right left right ...you'll feel the lack of feedback on the brake pedal and grinding, scraping or buzzing noise will appear. steering shaking however, it couldn't be related to ABS. Didn't experienced this when braking hard in other ABS equipped car. I din't brake very hard so I don't think is ABS works. |

not to mention.. steering shake where step on break also can cause by uneven surface of the disc of the break.

QUOTE(zaFrOoNaLdO @ Jul 1 2012, 11:30 PM) how does the auto fold function on preve works? If im not mistaken, it will auto fold when we press the lock button/switch off the engine? That's what i wish for..the side mirror will unfold when we start the car or when we engage the gear. My wife keep mumbling about it until now If that's the case, if possible, proton should just change it to auto unfold when we unlock the car or start the engine. dont worry about other things. that's how auto fold function works on most luxury cars anyway.. right?  |

Didn't experienced this when braking hard in other ABS equipped car. Scraping, yes. Buzzing, no. I'm a little worried about my stopping distance actually. Its worse than my '92 model Saga!  And the feedback is, like, stomping on a down pillow...Normal? |

QUOTE(BartS @ Jul 1 2012, 11:39 PM) They sounded so confident. Am wondering if you're the recipient of the new mapping. Told by the service centre by the CAT Team, they did not receive any new mapping from their HQ yet. No new mapping was done at my car. |

I have this before n immediately send for claim n even the sa know it immediately when he test it.I din't brake very hard so I don't think is ABS works. |

Its worse than my '92 model Saga! yes. as for the stopping distance, the Preve has more metal than a 92' Saga. If the Preve has a 92' Saga brake system, I think it need 1km baru boleh henti that car from 100kmh. And the feedback is, like, stomping on a down pillow...Normal?  |
