Hellooo everybody & have a good week ahead icon_rolleyes.gif

Added on November 12, 2012, 11:41 amI got a question but different members gave different answers.

When braking from high speed, got helicopter sound.

Member 1 advise: Brake rotor/ disk/ pad may be warped & need to change to new one,

Member 2 advise: The brake is still new. Sound will disappear after 1 - 2 months of usage

My current mileage only 650KM & not yet 1K service. Been driving the car for almost 3 wks now.
I have sent to SC last week & the mechanic did 'Bleeding'. The helicopter sound reduced a bit but not totally eliminated.

Please advise

Bros, I am going for 1K 1st Service next week + new ECU/ TCU remap.

Can you still remember how your engine feel like after your 1st Service?
Smoother?
Better FC?

Can I whack above 3K RPM & above 160KMH after 1st Service?

I actually whack 160km/h even before 1st service.

After 1st service, engine will be smoother, more refined, less "grinding" sound. Again that was b4 the ECU/TCU mapping.

With new ECU/TCU mapping, engine mounting fuel line hose MOD, turbo pressure house cable ties mod, the driving experience is seriously good NOW

Thanks.
I can't wait for the remap. Was told that the true power & nature of Preve CFE shows itself after the remap drool.gif

Hi guys, how to play song through bluetooth A2DP?
*
First step - Go to SETUP, turn on HU & your phone bluetooth. Select PAIR & then key in the pin code provided when prompted.
Once paired, in future, you will only need to turn on your phone bluetooth & car HU will automatic detect.
Second step - Press MEDIA button & your phone name should appear. Can either press play from HU or your phone.
I learnt this from trial & error as the car manual book made no sense when I read it regarding this rclxub.gif

why so hard to call COSE 03-8026 9333. Only accept message recording!

Bro, maybe u should try another SC.

For my case, I first wrote an email to iCare.
Few days later the PE SC manager called me up personally regarding my concerns/ requests & we even kept in touch via FB.
With or without this SMS, I have already made appointment with PE SC since 2 wks ago for 1K first service, new remap & some minor issues which is scheduled for early next week.

If this can be realized, I would request to map the function to [Mode] button on our steering wheel.  brows.gif
If I remember correctly, all Proton from 198x Saga to current model have this "gluk gluk" sound right?  laugh.gif
I also owned a Kia Spectra before, and that also have this "gluk gluk" sound actually.
Anyway, I never see it as problem, maybe the design or quality (clearance tolerance) wasn't good enough?
Wow! You DIY this LED yourself?
How to know if my phone number had been registered to Proton? I never received any SMS from them, only service centre remind me to go to service my car.  hmm.gif

Not sure how they got my number but I suspect that they got it from my email to iCare as my email got my full company signature, designation & contact numbers

Bros, just reflash my car yesterday with the new ECU/ TCU.
How long does it take for the system to adapt to my driving style?

Fyi, the car is very light, responsive & powerful now.
