Its just a half cm scratch. Will ask when my service is on on monday.

There is a 1cm scratch at my preve bumper. COSE said needs 2 days to get the repaint work done on whole bumper & the color might not 100% match with the original one, WTF. No idea why they can't just touch up the scratch part. hmm.gif
I din go back to COSE today, dun waste my time & money...will fix at other carshop.

After my second service last Sunday I thought that too. But never give it time to think about it. My car's FC kinda bad after that.. Hmm..

Let me try Petronas too after this. Whn in KL i think I might opt for BHP..
*
I had tried Shell, BHP, Petron, & Petronas...so far Petronas gives the most KM follow by Esso/BHP, Shell.

plus minus almost the same. with normal ron 95 travelling speed around 80~90kmph will get around 480~500km per full tank of RM85

for ron 97 around 510 ~ 520km but better power. same speed it will be around RM115 full tank.

Sigh... just want to put this into writing somewhere... just plain frustrated with COSE...

sent in my car last Thursday 2-Aug at around 8am for the following reasons:
1 - repaint at spots where paint has chipped off at point of delivery, mainly bonnet.
2 - pointed out where to apply sealant to gaps at small windows at the rear doors
3 - to check driver back rest is making noise when lean against it
4 - to check rear suspension making noise when going over speed humps
5 - to perform 5k service

I know 6/8 was a public holiday for COSE too.

and till today, no one at COSE nor i.care can tell me the actual status...

is my expectation too high?

It's a great car but really being let down by poor after sales service...

COSE? Highly overrated.
*
Just a quick update on my "ordeal" with COSE
Finally got my car back today.
1 - repaint is done. Was hoping the bonnet will have a clear surface but now noticed that there are swirl marks all over it. Guess they must have polished it the wrong way? Have to pull out Meguiar Swirl X again...
2 - cant really tell if they have applied any sealant (but they claimed they have) and did not have the road to test out for wind noise
3 - believe I can still hear it and I doubt the SA understood my complaint in the first place...
4 - no more noise from the rear suspension -> they said they have tighthen the suspension...
5 - 5k service done -> requested for 10w30

In addition to the above, they have also made adjustment to the driver's side power window panel, now no longer bulging upwards when glass reach the top but seems expanding side way.... anyone who has got their power window panel adjusted can confirm this? i.e. expanding side way.

And also the side mirrors are more in sync when folding/unfolding. Driver's side is still a tad slower than the left.

That's all.

Me too. Seat's fabric seems not up to par. The less blinking bit should be due to your installing a VS.

Goes to show that Preve has a strong body user posted image
Hard to imagine what it'll look like if that's a Wira.

On another note, I had my reverse camera fitted.

Can explain this part a bit?

I tried to DIY fix mine. Opened the door's panel but couldn't figure out which part to bend. In the end, stuck the screwdriver in and bend here/there sikit-sikit. Pasang balik and spray silicone spray onto the rubbers. Now okay liao. Still bulges but no more sound when window going up/down.

When you select reverse gear, it powers the camera and sends signal to the HU to switch input from camera.

Well before they adjusted it, whenever the glass reaches the top, the whole power window switch panel would be bulging slightly upwards. If you rest your arm on top of the panel, you will feel the panel is pushing upwards.

And now after they have adjusted it, it's not pushing upwards anymore but expanding/bulging slightly from the side.
