QUOTE(ben3003 @ Aug 22 2012, 02:44 PM) if the door din close properly, the door wont even lock. U will hear the lock and unlock sound. May be that time the environment too mch noise, and i can't hear that..only realize that the side mirror does not close... Keep on try and error and finally the ODO meter showing that the passenger door does not close properly... Silly me.

QUOTE(BartS @ Aug 22 2012, 03:02 PM) I think the same has happened or will happen to all of us. Quite often, after walking some distance away from the car, I wonder if I had forgotten to arm the alarm; have to return to the just to make sure. Has anyone looked into adding a 3rd party siren/bleeper to address this? I want 'bleep' once for arm. Bleep twice for disarm. Dont want kereta bisu  That is call alarm buzzer...Another alternative is, look into the signal lamp, if it flashing 1X means lock, flash 2X mean open. Sometimes, even if we put into 'N' and switch off the engine and lock the door, the door will stick locked and the the side mirror still close. I will check with service centre n see whether can the car programmed in such situation. If put into 'N' mode, the door will not lock and side mirror will not auto close.

QUOTE(BartS @ Aug 22 2012, 03:51 PM) Ha Ha .. if not mistaken for most cars, it's one single beep for locked. And 2 beeps for unlock. Sometimes walk too far or out of line of sight, cannot see the signal lamp. With previous car, can press lock once more and hear loud beep to confirm it's locked. With Preve once locked, side mirror folds in. Keep playing on my mind that if not locked, side mirror remains unfolded and anyone can see that and may try to open my door. I so miss my loud beeps  Yes, i always look into the side mirror to justify whether the car is locked or unlock. Nowadays, many car come without the alarm buzzer. My wife Viva also does not come with Alarm buzzer, when she brought her Viva to SC for 1st 1K service, the Service Advisor had approach her to install the Alarm Buzzer with additional RM50. I will ask the service centre during my next service next month to see whether can we have additional alarm buzzer to our car...

QUOTE(arthur88 @ Aug 23 2012, 11:56 AM) so.......u just need to turn on the HU...what is the problem? cause u need one more touch to turn the HU on? seriously, it is not consider as a problem at all...just that how it works is different, that's all... if u say my reverse cam doesnt show anything even i turn HU on, that is a problem... All this is depend on what kind of HU you are using...some HU can support display during reverse mode without turning on. And some HU need to turn on first to display during the reverse mode. So far, i have no ideas how the Bosch HU work, because i did not install any reverse camera to my preve yet. Maybe we can get some experience guy here to advise how is look like?
