I think will go COSE tomorrow to update the ECU/TCU, also to check for my wind screen ecotint claim status...totally no update from ICare.  shakehead.gif

have you already made an appointment with COSE for tomorrow? I called them this morning and was told that they are full this week. After that I made an appointment with Proton Edar Puchong this Thursday morning to update the ECU/TCU.

Err..nope. Just request to update the ECU/TCU will not take long time right?? Anyone can confirm how long it will take for reflash the ECU/TCU?
*
remember someone was turned away by COSE when showing up without making prior appointment but of course you can try your luck...

Did you make appointment? Isit the address at below for Proton Edar Puchong?

No. 6 & 8, Jalan Serindit 3, Puchong Jaya Industrial Park, Bandar Puchong Jaya, 47100. Selangor.
hmmm...will try out other branchs then.  drool.gif
Anyone know which branch can I update the ECU/TCU in KL and Klang valley areas??
*
that's the correct address and they told me the earliest for me is this Thursday. Think it's better you call any of the Proton Edar service centers first to ask if they perform the remapping and make appointment with them instead of just showing up without one. You know, to avoid the hassle and disappointment.

Can anyone tell me what is the current or latest update version for the HU?
The SA who attended to me at Proton Edar service center Puchong told me they have updated my HU but I don't know what is the latest and what does it improve on...
BTW, I have updated to the latest ECU and TCU and so far the impression on my day to day driving experience has been great i.e. good pick up from stationary, no jerking at low speed and can increase speed up to 170 with ease (ran out of road on a short sprint). So far so good.

So, would you say this trip to the SC was time well spent?  brows.gif

Yes, absolutely.
They have also ordered 2 warranty parts for me, gave me a written note too, the left side mirror and a black vertical strip for my right rear window, the current piece is loose and a bit sliding. Both are no big deal matters, just something nice to get them fixed.
Would not be able to comment about the FC though, will not be driving my red preve for maybe another 2 to 3 months.... going to really miss the thrill of driving it, even without any update.

Despite some reports of the engine being quieter after the remap, I think my engine growls a bit more after the remap. Is your's the same? Or is it just me being more aggressive on the pedal?
*
sorry don't think I can differentiate if the engine sounded differently pre and post update.

Cant speak for the others but Hitz & Mix fm reception is hazy on my unit. Melody FM is strangely quite clear.

I rate my HU radio reception as clear and good i.e. Hitz, Mix, Fly, Light, 98.8 etc

BTW is it able to get Fire Red Preve Premium (new batch production) since some claims they have red (not an old stock) some said no red color (stop production long time ago) .

Hope to get everything clear before signing the loan agreement  unsure.gif

@ yoongzhen,
Fire red was not my first choice but after owning one for close to 7 months.... IMHO, it's the most gorgeous colour of all. Give it a good waxing and enjoy the view under a bright sunny day.

Preve's boot is large enough to store the 2 parking mats and the parking sign. This will not happen in our cities because there is not such thing as free parking....

Make sure you all check your car when service at SC, and straight go back to SA to complain & make sure they log/write down your complain if you found something not right...NEVER NEVER tin it should be normal. Once you out of SC, is hard for you chase from SC or ICare.
BTW, morning Previans  wub.gif

When I went to remapped at Puchong SC, I also noticed a light scratch about 2 inches long close to the driver side door handle... I didn't make a fuss over it, maybe I don't have the stamina to follow up with them anymore, just want to be done with it i.e. the remapping. Will try to use rubbing compound to try to remove or minimize it.

hi,
sorry if this sounds silly but can the stock HU of the CFE display just the time without tuning to the radio or the GPS or the CD etc.? I saw someone posted a photo in FB (no, not a friend) where the time was being displayed right at the centre of the display.

Guys,

Can help to check your Preve have this or not.

On the left side, passenger side, back of the car, from the brek lights to the tire, there is gap, between the bottom part of the bumper and the upper part. The line is not even, the bottom part is like bengkak.

I've call the SA, he said their cars in showroom also like that, ask to send to sc to get fix.

Check yours... If got time, will upload a pic later...
*
have you got the chance to upload a pic yet? sorry, still can't imagine where and how that spot you mentioned look like....
