I think you better send to SC if this is not happened since first day.


I dropped Preve and took Forte 2 months ago. And always complaining about dashboard rattling sound on Forte when hit the road bump. Now I realise how lucky I am.

It is really annoying when the 'heart' (engine) of the car having problem.

I hope your problem will be fixed soon.

I think you also should ask here about where you can find the best SC to fix your car.

Just leave the Preve overnight after heavy rain , the brake DISK have signs of rusts on DISK, PREVE == GOOD QUALITY = eURO STD

Not sure if you are being sarcastic, but this happens to all cars with disk brakes, Proton or otherwise. Drive for a while and the rust will disappear.

On the other note, good morning guys!

Rusty brake, rusty exhaust...ada ku kisah????

Last week city drive, i pumped one full tank till the pump auto stop , then used until fuel indicator blink blink.. can only reached 300km..

i leave my engine running abit before reverse. since cold engine kinda jerk abit when reverse or go forward D.

but seriously, diff proton SA told diff ways starting the car to all customer??? mine: slot keys, push start, push brake, button go green then push start. he told me not to follow the manual.

so which one of all method actually the correct method

Typical basher would say: "This is what Malaysian PPL are, the way of thinking "tak apa" has plagued the mind of the vast multi-layered ppl in this country resulting in feeling easily satisfied with what they are provided. If this were to happened to oter country like India for example, their people would already organized a demonstration in public places bla bla bla..."

Morning Rich!

Oit, seriously? What happened to ur car bro? Don't tell me its the kiss 1-2 days ago make it like that?

All way of starting ur car is correct bro. Its just the matter personal preference as well as little precaution to our beloved car.

I believe last time Izputra bro has listed down 4 ways of starting a car with Push Start button. But to me personally, I practice the longest step one everytime I start, not just the 1st start in the morning bro.

at least it rusts. That creates a peace of mind. Coz at least I know Proton is using metal for that part, instead of plastic.

i reached COSE around 8am, reception said no walk-in for today, no joy.
Read good review at eon glenmarie, tried my luck there.

Rusty exhaust holder > SA said its mild steel sure will rust. no repaint here but might request to replace whole exhaust if insisted.
Forget it, not going that route, i inspected a saga nearby, rusted too. Will live with it.

Gluk gluk sound while winding window.
No longer there, i guess its because of the rain.

Alignment
Eon seems reluctant to do it, due to my 1st service done at edar

Furry seat > SA claimed caused by comb inside pocket of driver. He asked me to go to vendor directly somewhere at jalan kebun and went in to get the address.
Waited 5 mins, he's no where to be seen, time to move on..


Now at proton edar glenmarie for alignment
Reception informed have to wait till 6pm, no guarantee though that my car will be serviced

I'm gonna wait till lunch, then i'm going to do alignment at outside non edar/eon shop. Any recommendation?

u're too fast switching the gear to reverse bro.. i think u need to leave the engine to heat up at least a minute before engaging any gear from a cold start to get a better experience.. mine is always wait until the temp get 2 bar then engage the gear and start drive..

for the jerks when slowing down, if the engine not died, give the car more time to adapt to ur driving style.. mine also the same when first getting the car.. now feels okay already.. it will get better over time..

or.. u can go to SC and complaint about it..

update FC on my KL - Penang - KL Trip

KL - Penang 8.2 L/100KM
with 3 ppl but after rawang 2 ppl
max speed 180 km/h , avg 110 km/h

Penang - Kepala Batas- KL 8.6 L/100KM
with 3 ppl from penang to kepala batas , 4 ppl until rawang and 3 ppl back until kl
max speed 180 km/h , avg 110 km/h
traffic jam at penang bridge

this FC calculated using fuelly ,

my dashboard showing 8.6 yesterday kekeke

proton should use carbon fiber brake rotor

later they use the weakest form of carbon (charcoal) as the material how?
