chill down :-). I think sometimes good things can come out from the worst, i mean, if i as one of big guns in prtn, take it positively, check for the root, but the most importantly, just keep improving, even if the fault is from the customer, just next time, try to create a more or better user friendly gadjets based on the feedback.

Iinm many of engine parts vendors are big co that supply parts to others, iinm vvt system from mikuni, bosch fueling systems, ecu from conti ag, turbine by borg wagner n etc... I dunno why when it comes to proton, this thing happened. Herm....always keep me wondering...

Anyway, actually dont want to brag on that part, just reading on problem cannot off the engine, i think, there is an emergency engine off procedure, which is push the start button more than 5 scnds, it will kill the engine. About the key, i think they checking/replacing the immobilizer.

What is actually happened to the white car? Is it due to immobiliser coz if wrong procedure can cause it to be immobilise cause just afraid the same case on the locking where some get angry preve dont have child lock on front doors which iinm there are rules on safety under fmvss on that part which need to abide. Where some others, even when lock the doors, still can easily open by pulling the inner door handle once, atleast preve u need twice :-). Sorry for empty talking. Bye.

Like this then ..

I noticed Preve comes originally with such a lip at the top of the door, presumably to seal off the gap between door and frame. Should be these little gaps that produce a whistling sound at high speeds.

is it the hole to allow water to go out?
