i found out 1 thing, if u no open ur aircon, ur radiator fan wont open? Cos i tried on the car without aircon then when i switch off the car, the fan will run and cool the engine down.. then i try open bonnet and see, really no open aircon no radiator fan, mean cooling system not working... i think have to be aware of it, cos scare like Savvy AMT, u no open aircon, the amt cooler fan no running also then AMT overheat, then AMT spoilt, 15k gone if no warranty..

Highway driving should give u 550km or more for rm75.
Fully town, below 330km.

Preve is really a heavy car.

Campro is fantastic when the engine warms up. Good fc n performance.
Short distance town driving, Insight or Prius C?
*
short distance driving best u get hybrid.. or compact car like myvi or so.. the lighter the best. If u wan do long distance+city, u might be looking at hot-hatch like fiesta, swift, mazda 2 and so on. Cos they give u comfort and ride of a sedan but with efficient engine and lighter body for city drive. Myvi is just too tall for long distance, i dont like it. Maybe change to bucket seat better lol.. if u do 50/50 then preve is good enough for it when u wan the big booty space biggrin.gif

Lol .. it cost money. Do that only if the whine annoys you smile.gif

not much ma.. maybe 100-150, then it save ur ears and mind from the whine few years down the road, probably save urself from potential mental hazard. Whine is always annoying ( like ur gf or wife whines you) just whether u can ignore it or not is another story. i already got stp silver, but hood solution need to buy.. still thinking of a way to get it at my hometown..

Hi all,

Sorry but this may be the dumbest questions I am about to ask here... simply because I really can't understand the logic.

A turbo unit create higher compression pressure while still burning the same amount of fuel.
So, when we pedaled a Preve CFE above 2000rpm so that the turbo kicks in, we actually get better or poorer fuel efficiencies?
Almost everybody here share the information of keep the rpm below 2000 to get better FC, are they really true?
When Googled about this question, I see more "increased MPG" than "decreased MPG" answers. 
If turbo boost resulting in bad FC, why not Proton put in 1.8L engine without a turbo? hmm.gif

Another question: on CFE engine, the turbo start to create the boost above 2000rpm?
But according to my hearing of "siiiiiu..." boost sound, I think mine start at 30km/h no matter which rpm the engine was running.
Unless this "siiiiiu..." was actually the sound of CVT?  laugh.gif
Condition of my observation:
Every morning 6:xxAM, while everybody still dreaming, in a multi-storey car park with around 80M-100M of straight "runway" with lots of sound reflected back to my ears, all 4 windows wound down, radio and air-cond were OFF. I monitor this for months already.


I am not trolling but sincerely asking questions here to learn.  nod.gif

siiu is cvt sound bro smile.gif turbo spooling sound i still yet to hear it in the cabin.. dunno how to get that sound.. even i hit 2k also no such sound.. maybe barely audible becos the turbine in small and not much pressure.

U get higher FC becos it is forced induction, means it gives more volume of air into the engine to allows combustion to happen. and when more air, means u need more fuel to get complete combustion, same like u got tis amount of fuel, u enuf air.
