Hi Adam,

How is your Preve doing now? Did you still experience middle road die off?

About the cranking sound, it happened to my car once last sunday morning and i didn't noticed anymore in this few days.
*
they suppose to change ocv, but till today no one call me.. some more they got 2 another pending thing to replaced for me..

last few days, no die off issue.. maybe excited with the power of preve make me forgot a while about her problem..

Is yours IAFM? Because CFE version is PL1CR6SDRCG00XXX. If the chassis number you gave is not for CFE then that is correct.

according to my sa..


SDR: for premium only
STR: for exec cvt/mt

rclxub.gif  maybe I can just don't worry if my car got error code...  laugh.gif

Another question:
Sometimes, I doubt if my turbo unit is working or not...  hmm.gif

In earlier versions of Preve threads I see people said they feel the turbo kicks in and some said they heard the sound when turbo is activated etc... but how come I never feel anything? No feeling, no hearing...  cry.gif

I may know if my turbo unit is working then one day is stop working so the car is underpower. But if my turbo unit not working since day one, how to tell the different?  hmm.gif
*
i think they gave u cvt unit with cfe logo at the back icon_idea.gif my turbo sound is like weeeeee (tried it when i cucuk camry on 180kmh last week).. the car feel so lite when turbocharger activated...so confident (with the car)some more.. rclxm9.gif

north-south hiway, after pedas towards air keroh the traffic quite less so can test la.. tongue.gif since have passed 1k service, is time to let the engine running breaking in (i donno what the word is).. really, all prevean should try, the car power is superb and u r confident to drive it faster becoz u know the car respond when u press the pedal n when take conering on high speed.. the brake is superb, really responsive.. this is the reason i forgot my car have few pending problem.. rclxms.gif

I think they should recall all Preve, save me the trouble of taking leave to send to SC to fix all the MINOR problems.
*
the biggest reason i'm buying preve is bcoz the showroom n service centre is very near to my office building.. i'm not afford to take 1 day leave or spend my Saturday leave for car service.. 1 year only have 21days annual leave and it so expensive for me to spend it at service center, some more time with family is too important 4me.. smile.gif

anyway i preve almost perfect car (for car value below 80k) even i have 3 pending issue with it.. rclxms.gif

it happened to me once last sunday morning also. So far i didnt notice any. I remember what i was told by my salesman. "Turbo car is behave like this if in very cold condition, once it has warm up, it will resume back to normal"

Correct me if i am wrong...  biggrin.gif

i also notice the same issue.. the crank sound happen when at the night is raining.. but not always..
