My SA always said he is very new to this and that and another guy is handling the YES thingy..and that guy is always not around.

Bro dhuang, that's the thing i am curious about...the Test Drive unit in the showroom was equipped with Reverse Camera and it is a rear-view mirror type (the SA did the reverse cam at the normal bengkel and costs around RM650!)

He said that is ok one...wont void the warranty...

The bonnet is quite high and reverse parking with Preve is really testing your guts and feeling towards the car!

By the way, i got my car last Saturday and the following are my details...

Genetic Silver - CN 81**

Mod please add me ya!

Got my cars within two weeks... icon_rolleyes.gif so far no problem and do not possess any problems as mentioned by bro in the earlier V8 - V11...touch wood it is ok!

Who's your friend? Is he a friend of a friend who met a new friend at mamak store, who's Uncle's distant cousin works for Proton?  biggrin.gif

This is just my personal opinion but put yourself in Proton's shoes. The car is selling well and they have trouble fulfilling/meeting current orders and ironing out the bugs. Is another vendor set to release a model that's a threat? Is this a opportunistic time to release another variant? Or should they wait for the market quiet down again and introduce a new variant to spice things up. Sooner or later, it may come. Depend on how long can you tahan waiting?

i thinks the prtn has made a lot effort for the preve production....eventhough the chassis no 8 series already on the road...maybe now the booking has shoot to 12k, btw please check with ur SA estimate to get the car blush.gif

Guys, so far my car, I found out this few problem:
Driver side, front passenger side n rear right passenger side got wind noise when 120km/h n big gap from windscreen bottom plastic cover...

Anyone can recommend where do I service 1k n claim warranty?

Anyone have this experience for 3 door got wind noise?
*
bro...this is well known manufacturing defect for preve....they will get the rubber lining within 1-2 weeks and send ur car again to the SC..highlight in ur 1k service....also highlight all your problems....better give them the list...they will overcome one by one....estimate 1 problem 15-20 mins...the more ur problems...more time to wait... laugh.gif this my experience sweat.gif

eventhough we already hv the answer, but i still highlight to them, at least they know our concern.
bro, this is my list

engine
1. got 'woo woo' sound front left passenger side - they said this is cvt oil sump sound (normal@features)
2. lambat pickup 1.5k rpm baru jalan - they said this is the setting, can't change unless prtn give new update

interior
3. the wind noise right & left rear passenger - 1-2 week get new rubber lining and install it.
4. driver arm rest power window 'pop-out' when scroll up - they open up the door trim and now ok
5. got 'clak clak' sound when press brake pedal - they said this is locking mechanism for gear shift blush.gif
6. boot lid can open using the remote - check and align again latch, now ok
7. HU Light & Root Top light flashing while the car on idle or driving - a/c compressor kick-in, can't do anything except the HU display change from auto to light or dark...i change to dark setting
8. got bubble at passenger door glass - need to get neasrest ecotint shop to check/replace the tint

outside
9. tyre alignment - done alignment f.o.c eventhough beyond 1k (this need to nego la frenz, otherwise will pay blush.gif )

frenz, i hv one theory whether true or not, you can judge by yourself by seeing your FC at meter panel....if your average speed 30km/hr, your FC will be above 10l/100km....and if your average speed above 30km/hr, your FC will be below 10l/100km.... this is my observation and conclusion
