Ok fellow preve-ians
The update for my issue with my preve (after much making noise at the centre cos they didn't even touch my car for a good half day and only after complain to the SC manager only wana diagnose the problem)

Bad news for my car  cry.gif
The gear leaver is stuck and they don't know what is the problem where they disassemble the whole gear leaver for manual release of gear only can move the car
After a while the gear leaver is stuck again and can shift or start the car
According to the technician there, the gear leaver is stuck which caused the car to refuse to start
But the funny thing is that it still shows low battery sign even thou I changed it 2 weeks ago (last breakdown)
Took 3 technician also can't figure out why is the problem
Have to wait for them to contact Proton Technical team to know what is wrong
My car will be at the SC at Section 13 till at least Monday to know what's wrong
It's their first time having such problem

Anyone experienced it before?
*
no choice lor...have to be patient...in my case also, i have to leave my beloved preve for 10 days in COSE. At least, majority of my lemon car problems solved. Left 2 more minor issues.

I think it could be silicone sealant or something.

Your car not applied anything? Does that mean still got wind noise on your car?
*
i hate the silicon spray. They spray a lot in COSE but after a few days the sound come back. The excess silicon also blur up my driver windows everytime i roll down and up. doh.gif

The second complaint on these windows sound, then only they called the vendor come. At last, solved the window problem.

Neuton is Indo brand. This tyre is superb with it price tag. The grip in wet & dry condition is very good. Noise level is very good too. Overall this tyre is on par with those high end branded tyre. I am using it now and i am sure will buy again in the future too. Highly recommended.

How much you brought the Neutron tyres and from which shop?

3) Alignment - NOT FIXED (they don't have the equipment but if you do the alignment outside it WILL NOT VOID your warranty, if you change the RIM to bigger size it WILL VOID your warranty on the suspension system and parts)
Good Morning Everybody ! wub.gif wub.gif Last day of the year! icon_idea.gif ...What is your resolution for 2013?


Anyone can confirm the above statement regarding the alignment warranty? hmm.gif

This afternoon my car stall in the middle of the road n i try starting it for more than 10 minutes n it start n after that i try to move around to test whether it can stall again but it seems fine, call up proton asist n inform me to send to sc on monday for checking. Question is if its only once n nothing wrong should i send to sc or maybe wait 2moro to see anything happen. Hopefully nothing happen. Anyone face this problem before n can share what u do to solve the problem. tq

if you have the time, then send it to SC. They can plug in their laptop and check for the error codes. Then they will know what is the issue.

i prefer to remap cos i travel city more than highway. No more jerking or slow pickup. Power come early at 1.8K rather than at 2K rpm. I get better mileage in city than before remap.

I don't hear much of the cvt whining but i do hear lot of gluk gluk sound. SC confirmed tyre sound. rclxub.gif Maybe the tyre sound very obvious to me cos for many years I have been using Michelin tyres. I can hardly wait to botak my preve tyres then change to Michelin. biggrin.gif

regarding the service schedule, next service after 1k is 5k or 10k? If using semi syn engine oil.

normally semi syn = 5k km, full syn = 10k km

Does anyone have problem with the GPS on your Bosch head unit? Mine does and I am getting furious about it.

My GPS shows different location than it should. I was driving around SKVE but my GPS showed Kepong area. The red arrow movement is okay, it moves as my car moves, but compass is not accurate. Radio works fine.

Went to SC today, they confirmed that the GPS part of HU is having problem. GPS antenna and connection are fine, as they tested with another Bosch HU and that unit worked fine. They suggested me to send my HU to Penang. How long will it take to fix? They don't know. So I decided NOT to send my HU to Penang since I can't live with my Preve having a big empty hole on its dashboard.

My questions:
1. What will you do if you were in my situation?
2. Is installing different GPS (Papago, Garmin, etc) on our Bosch HU doable at the moment? If it is doable, can it solve the GPS problem?
3. The mechanic scratched my plastic dashboard when they tried to open the HU. Any way to repair my scratched dashboard?

My GPS stops working, and also my gear knob plastic casing tercabut. Dashboard tercalar. Everything happened at the same time. What a great start into 2013  sad.gif

damn. i went to proton edar to flash ecu and 10K service. i thought they change my engine oil to fully synthetic, but they changed it to semi synthetic only. so i need to go there again at 15K. i dont have time la to go out of office every time. should ask them first. huhuhu  doh.gif

last time i service at eon. they use fully. replace only after 10K.  cool2.gif

after flash ecu. feels nothing. like usual only tongue.gif

kenot thought la....have to inform SA when they called you and visit to your car and make sure they write it down on the form..

check your rpm..if flashed, rpm 2k will reached 80kmph, if not flash, rpm 2k will reach 90kmph.
