Thanks for the heads up. Didn't notice laugh.gif
I don't really care tbh. In LYN we're all the same. As our Prez likes to say, the post is there just so there's a face to it. Everyone does their equal duty of work here smile.gif

I don't think I fit the bill to be a TS anyways, I'm not active enough sweat.gif

If there's anything pressing here guys, just shoot me a PM aight.

Welcome all and don't forget to register as members! biggrin.gif

Puchong SC.. they will do only when u ask for it.. even when ur car chassis number is affected (based on service bulletin) rclxub.gif


done serviced my abby for 10k yesterday... things that i complained: -
1. seat "krekk krekk" at backrest - they only apply grease, summore saying that other preve also the same..
2. RH wiper touching body frame - adjusted.
3. headlamp settings - adjusted
4. power window switch sometimes malfunction on driver power window only - they only reaffix the socket only, last time reaffix socket still the same..
5. air-cond whistling sound when in medium speed - they say campro engine air-cond will always got that whistling sound??? do nothing..

forgot about the ECU remapping until 1 hour later then telling him to do it.. if not, they simply just keep quiet only.. rclxub.gif

Opps, I also having the same the right wiper touching the frame but I did not mention it...i though is normal  cry.gif

Do your power window got "glu glu glu" sound when pressing down during the hot day? SC just applied grease but they mentioned if happen again they will change the part. Today afternoon, tried the power window still having "glu glu glu" sound. Do you guys also having the same sound??

I did the ECU/TCU remapping this morning at COSE, very fast about 1 hour settled. So far cannot comment much, just feel the POWER like inspira, very responsive...have to adapt the new settings again.  rclxub.gif

right wiper touching frame is not normal bro.. later got heavy raining, ur wiper rubber will be hancur becoz of wiping the windscreen at very high speed.. laugh.gif summore got "ketak ketak ketak" sound.. so annoying... about the power window "glu glu glu" sound, my power window doesn't have that sound.. only sometimes sound like "krakk tik tik tik".. or "tak tak tak" something like that.. but i doesn't mind much about the sound, as long as the power window is working..

3. headlamp settings??..what is that??


Added on November 20, 2012, 7:21 pm
the power window "glu glu" sound cannot be solved by just applying grease or watever crap..they need to disemble the whole door panel and adjust something or change something...i manage to solved mine in cose last week..saw them taking off the whole door panel..now working like charm..last time asked around in forum and the only answer i got is apply silicone spray..which is bullshit..
*
headlamp settings.. height of the headlamp beam.. i found out that my headlamp high beam is not high enough.. causing limited view when night driving on quiet state road for example.. ask them to readjust, still untested yet..

This kind of SC really makes Proton name bad...can complain to the HQ? If the HQ also like this, then Proton can go pack and close shop...

1. My car also have - does not bother to complain
2. Not sure, have not look yet but got 'tak tak tak' sound when I use it during rainny day...I think it is the shorter one that cause the sound
3. nothing wrong with mine
4. mine is ok..
5. never on my aircond pass medium speed .. tongue.gif (go to work early in the morning, leave work late evening..rainy season..cooling)

Had a wonderful time driving home today in my Preve
Reason: On the music to level 20...listen to my favourite songs...all the 'tak tak tak' , gluk gluk gluk , tik tik tik, dahsboard vibrate, all cannot hear already... laugh.gif

good for u.. thumbup.gif

'tak tak tak' is only on rainy day? hmm.. gonna test it out when raining..

Thanks. I want buy fully syntium Is it like this? http://www.gnm.my/itemdetail.php?item_id=346
but still don't get the 800, 2000,3000,4000,5000
*
800 is semi.. 1000 and above is fully...

1000 = 15W-50
3000 = 5W-40
5000 = 0W-40 and 0W-30

most Proton SC has only syntium 1000 for fully..

The ICare person in charge said he can't do anything about my case, and asked to contact service centre...WTF after 3 months only tell me all these rubbish.  vmad.gif I just reported to NCCC, not sure if they can help.

i tried on small downhill..a little bit...i can change the gear from 4 to 5 as long as the RPM is above 2k...

never tried on long downhill like Bukit Gantang or Cameron...

gear 1 - 2 engine noise will like going to explode lo...
but i realize when using manual the RPM is a bit higher than normal...even in gear 7...when change to D from gear 7 the RPM is slightly decrease...
and i feel FC using auto (D) is much more saving than using manual protronic...rarely use auto (S)
*
yup.. I'm experiencing this also.. before remap, manual +/- mode is "D Mode" with a twist of manual control over gear changing.. now, after remap, it's like "S Mode" manual racing style..

furthermore, the mechanism of the gear lever changes between manual +/- mode and D mode is not quite smooth (for me at least).. most of the time, when slotting back to D mode from +/- mode, the gear lever will lock itself at D and cannot change to N or S.. need to slot back at +/- and D again, then can change gear.. dunno whether to complain this or not as it's a minor thing for me..

when i know i can do remap, or ecu/tcu upgrade, my chassis number 19xxx orh, need remap?

and the rusty problem happens to all preve? or just for certain batch rclxub.gif
*
if u can't stand or unhappy with the low speed sluggishness of your car, then ask for ECU remap when u go for service.. otherwise, if u happy with current performance, then don't do.. the purpose of the new mapping is to fix the low speed sluggishness and overcranking problems faced by most users.. this is for CFE engine only chassis from 02xx till 23xxx.. although i heard that there is a call for reflashing TCU for exec.. anyway, some SC will automatically do remapping for u, even u don't ask for it.. laugh.gif

and for the rusty problem, yes.. happened to all preve.. go to SC and ask them to spray/paint the rust.. dunno with newer batch, maybe they already sprayed it at factory, or the dealer done it for their customer..
