Did see some Myvis speeding downhill. Think it's overly dangerous. Going uphill, Preve will have more torque than them. Not that hard to maintain the revs above 2.5K to stay in turbo mode. Do remember to let car cool down properly once you get to the top.

what u mean by cool down properly and how?

I noticed few things happened to my preve after discharged from COSE:

1. ESC not functioning anymore, press the ESC button no icon shown.
2. Wind screen got a crack line. (see photos)
3. Got scratch on paint near the front left wheel. (see photos)
4. Press button icon appeared after engine already started.



Already complained to ICare after collected my preve on the same day, waiting for their arrangement.  shakehead.gif
*
The crack line is very bad. Do let us know the outcome from ICARE

IMHO preve is soft turbo then it will behave as one, therefore kena jaga as one also

smile.gif  frenz, after few week done observation and testing, come-out a theory thru SID

1. if your average speed below 30km/hr -  will get FC between 10l/100km to 11l/100km
2. if your average speed between 30km/hr to 35km/hr - will get FC between 9l/100km to 10l/100km
3. if your average speed between 35km/hr to 40km/hr - will get FC below 9l/100km

if anyone could verify it....it could be our benchmark , otherwise the theory is wrong blush.gif

mine 35km/hr - FC 8.6l/100km

Sorry bro, i really dont know how many meters. He asked me to use small d. I told him for all 4 doors, boot and bonnet. Total rm 150.

Anyways now only can hear wind noise from a pillar at speeds above 100km/h. Need to rectify that. Other then that, noise is like being in a camry now smile.gif
*
noise from A pillar. have u tried off the air-circulation. might be one of the culprit coz mine is.

smile.gif  well, thanks bro! do u drive exec cvt or premium? I am worry about the more automatic system in the car, the more easier to get more problem to fix..

since no one talking about the exec cvt and very hardly there is a test drive unit available in showroom, i cant decide it, i really wish to know about the exec cvt, i asked a few SA, they keep persuade me to buy premium. For exec auto, Im not sure is it underpower or not, coz i dun wan to drive a turtle up genting or slope.
*
i drive iafm+ cvt

for me no issue with the quality. wind noise if air-circulation in on and above 90kmh.

in term of speed have tried and easily reach 160kmh using lebuhraya pantai timur with 4 adult and full luggage (balik kampung trip)

dont want to speed more than 160 then my inlaws will realise im speeding.

from kuantan to kl, after tol that will reach to genting sempah. i use s mode. and tried to push the car. all the way manage to get 100kmh until the tunnel. (4 ppl with luggage)

for a family car sedan its worth it. to call it turtle NO. furthermore its hassle free

happy choosing my friend.

Actually I have one more question about preve,

there is one SA told me cfe is more save fuel than exec auto
Is that true??

80% of my travel driving less than 100kmh everyday coz kampung road and not much facing any traffic jam area.. so which one is more fuel saving for my case? tq
*
no laa, exec is more FC friendly.

if not mistaken average for CFE is 10-12l/100 km
for exec is 8-10l/100 km

mine is 8.6l/100km

2. The metal holder that hold the exhaust is a bit rusted. They ask me to spray anti-rust DIY.

Overall satisfied with the riding after my 1000km service.
*
on my second service i highlight to SC about this. they said first time customer complain about this. Currently dont have they spray to cover it. maybe on my third service.

definitely not DIY. SC will spray it for me.

Added on July 30, 2012, 8:22 ambtw guys..do u happen smell anything tht near ur car...like u follow car in front and the smell of the smoke came inside ur car? or u drive near a bazar ramdan then the smell of the food came inside ur car?

i like the smell of the food but i am very not liking the smell of the car smoke..

did u guys happen to have the same thing like me..? or only my preve got this issue...looks like filtration is not so good ma..and the FAN spin like 200KM/h...very loud.
*
for the outside smell/smoke. have u tried on the air circulation.

the right most knob of ur air-cond. press on it. it will activate the air-circulation

agreed. the fan a bit noisy
