i can't imagine going any lower.. there are two iron 'hooks' at the bottom of the engine area which have hit the ground a few times at parking lot ramps and speed bumps.. lucky no damage on the body

Not only the hooks below. My preve front nose left and right also got scratches already. I did not know our preve got such a long nose. smile.gif

perhaps bigger diameter tires?
should be heat resistant hose, if don't want DIY where can get it done?

after discharge from CoSE, center air-con vent still got rattling noise, not loud but quite obvious when having sudden/hard acceleration, suspect they never fix it.

power window no noise yet. but notice that the door panel a bit loose. sigh

My wiper hitting the side frame again when at high speed...SC technician sudah adjust..

Now got 2 issues outstanding instead of one....dashboard vibration and wiper hitting side frame..

Just did my preve balancing and alignment after hitting some potholes in town. Our malaysian road condiitions are getting horrible these days.

Both Osram Night Breaker Plus and Philips X-treme Vision are fully road legal as the color is still yellowish.

You can get it for RM110 and RM165 respectively.

Bought mine from this seller PHILIPS & OSRAM Headlight Bulbs

Thanks for the info.

Is it hard to do DIY installation? or need accessories shop to do? maverickng said very hard to reach wor..

Good Morning...Happy Christmas Eve and Merry Christmas~~

so after car service with ECU Remap and using fully oil...

city drive...seems like better than last time b4 ECU remap...but cannot be too sure about it cos recently it is holiday mood everywhere, traffic not as bad as last new months...D mode performance is good...no sluggish feel...

last Sat n Sun, highway drive...1 full tank 600km...kl <=> jb...avg fc from SID is 7.0 in D mode...

last time b4 ECU remap...found that switching from D mode to Manual +/-...the rpm is the same...instant FC is more or less the same..now when switch switch from D to manual +/-...instantly the rpm +500rpm...FC shoot up...for example..driving at 100kmph..D mode rpm = 2.5k...manual +/- = 3k...D mode instant FC = 6.1...Manual +/- FC = around 7...sad.gif

well...I used to love to drive in manual +/- when traffic condition is good...but not anymore now....FC will become bad..dont like..engine rev sound louder cos rpm higher...dont like...power....I feel it is same as D...dont like...no more reason to drive manual +/-....sad.gif
*
I use auto jingle all the ways..HO HO HO...Merry Christmas and Happy Holiday everyone! biggrin.gif

Who want to decorated Preve like this? Post back here to share..

If you ask here sure la...PREVE ! If you asked in almera thread, sure la ALMERA!


go go test drive both cars first and set your priorities what features you want most...

Morning y'all. Just got back from short holiday.

Got my black preve (CN:11xxx) last Wednesday and already reach 1.2k milestone as of now. KL - taiping - KL plus ronda-ronda. FC is so-so. Currently sit at 10.7. 1k service not done yet.

My issue are:

-FOGGING! It's very easy to fog the mirrors. I use auto climate set at no lower than 25. Still fogging is happening even not in the rain.
(just don't aim the blower directly to the windows. I just love my Preve air cond as compared to all my previous cars.)

-HEADLIGHTS sometimes the headlights kinda blink. I cant reproduce or found the cause.
(i think every preve got it. Some said the blinks are lessen after adding the voltage stabilizer)

-RADIO SIGNAL as mentioned before, poor radio signal
(i think this also depends at the area you are in. Certain areas do have weak signal.)

-GLOVE BOX in order to open it, i have to pull it from slanted angle.
(this you have to report to SC)

-CVT WARNING INDICATOR when i got it, this was blinking and in speed >100KM/h it will constantly lit up. Sent to SC, they flash to latest ECU and the indicator is no longer lit up.
(just monitor it again)

-TA what the hell is TA? Is it traffic assist? Did anyone got it to work?
(I also not using it. I use WAZE more cos it shows traffic jam areas)

-BLUETOOTH AUDIO the other party complaint voice too slow and faint altho I'm shouting in the car. Someone asked where is the mic before but IIRC no answer yet.
(I use Iphone4S, i talk at normal volume only. Seem very compatible with my Iphone. Please try other phone too before report to SC)

-BEAM how do we quickly beam for others to give way? double pull?
(daytime, just pull left stick once will do. night time got to double pull. Proton should modify this.)

-HEAD UNIT the 'buttons' labeled bluetooth & SDCard, is it really a button? or it indicator? weird stuff.
(is the place where the SD card is slotted)

That is all.

i interested on Preve also, hope they will do revision along with new hatchback by offering leather seat and minor tuning on PW...
*
PW should not be a big issue now. It is solvable. I got my gluk gluk sound when windows going up/down and bulging settled at SC.

I think if you want power and safety go for PREVE. If you want comfortable and quiet engine go for ALMERA.

Just saw in prevoc, after reflash newer ecu/tcu no more engine braking? I heard many of them said no more rpm increase in downhill meaning no more engine brake?

You heard it wrong. Mine after ECU/TCU update still have engine braking going downhill. nod.gif
