the new 207 design, with that tag price, i would go for proton anytime..

im pretty sure u could find some news on the 308 problem with the turbo unit..

yaa yaa i also wanted to know..

i belip whatever modification on ur car, esp those electronic ones, would void ur warranty... the only changes that are allowed during the warranty time is the sport rim, that also restricted only for 16' sport rim oni.. u put in 17', then the 5 years warranty gone..

i thought all warranty void lump sum? someone told me before.. the salesman to be exact somebody could verify this?

ive read somewhere, the campro cfe is 75% reworked from the original model of campro cps.. the piston, the bar, all have been hardened.. u could try to search for a pdf file named proactive_issue_43_web.pdf.. it contain the inside out of campro cfe from lotus themself..

scary yoo.. wat happen actually?

was the problem of OWV related to the earlier batch? latest 8xxx no more OWV?

bro, may i know which batch number affected by this OWV?

may i know how to check for these cfe engine number? tq in advance..

mine is still in kilang i assumed..

booked last week... the best is, the car is still on production line

i was following this thread since v10 regularly before i made my mind to book for the cfe last week..

what is the rate? 2.6% or 2.7%?

guys, on the One Way Valve issue, after change it to a new one, is there any possibilities of the problem re-occur? as from my readings, the OWV is because of the oil not sticking enough on the valve after being left unstarted or cold... seems like re-occuring issue for me.. or i got the readings wrongly?!?!

if like this, proton's engineer could not cari makan anymore.. all problem solve by layman like us.. no need to pay for the high income engineer anymore.. hahahaha

if like that rite, why not we just start a project, like a linux project...

we develop a peoples car, everyone of us contribute to the development... when the design, engine, accessoried finalized, then oni pay for the production.. woott woot..

the thing is, the head unit must be changed to a new one.. so the Bosch is gone... how come the warranty no void?

someone wrote here, the stock head unit got no extra port for the camera to be fitted in since it was not programmed with a rear camera... then what happen if the radio or cd switched on, and we reverse the car?

i had a bit oof f experience in both.. my brother took preve exec iafm+. meanwhile the one that i did the test drive at the SC was the CFE.

pick up wise, not much differences. since CFE is programmed to kick in when the rpm is between 2k-4k rpm. so, in terms of moving from stop, both performed pretty much the same. cruising around 80kmj-90kmj also pretty much the same. the iafm+ did the job well.. but whenever u want to take over the car in front, then u will hear the noise of the engine roaring, instead the car wasnt moving that fast compared to the roar of the engine.. the conclusion, iafm+ is enough if ur driving style more likely an unker style..

as for most of us here, we need the power to dragged the car more.. thats why we chose CFE (errr... mmm.. i havent got my car yet.. but since i already booked the CFE, i consider myself as a CFE owner hehehe)

but to be honest, the real reason why i chose the CFE is not because of the CFE. but its because of Elecltronic Stability Control. ive been through a spinning myvi. and let me tell u, its horror.. i wasnt driving fast since i know its raining.. and my tyre was just changed to a new one a few month before.. and still, it happened due to a water trap...

from my readings, the ESC could prevent the car from swaving left and right... judging from our weather, i would say, Malaysia needs to regulate a new car to comes with ESC factory fitted..

yaa yaa.. i told all my siblings, dont get confused because later on the day of raya, they would see 2 preve silver colour parking side my side.. might get my brother to take pictures the 2 of us with the 2 preve silver colour at the back.. one with cfe.. one is without the cfe..
