Our HU stock really suxk... tu lowest grade Pioneer pun 10x times cantik than stupid Bosch... bass open full also no ohm... damn it, i change all my front speaker to Focal, real speaker to Maestro, bass still not satisfy doh.gif .. bloody hell spent so much money of it
*
not only need change speaker la bro.. u need amp+HU.. the puny HU output too low la.. maybe 15w-20w per channel only.. tis puny amount how to drive ur new speaker. Get a subwoofer if u want bass, normal mid size can never produce good bass for basslover.

my car chasis number is 22xxx, CFE.

currently at COSE now, but the SA told me my car already have the new ECU, because in her system, there is no recall to reflash ECU. true kah?
because when i drive at 90km/h, the rpm is 2k. and feel the power only after 2k rpm.
(i read in lowyat, the new ECU, at 90km/h, rpm 2.2k, and turbo kick in on 1.8k rpm)

how to check what version is my ECU?

and the SA recommend me to take magnettrap, and said recommended by Proton.. i thought Produa said not recommended. Proton recommended kah?

SA said can respray the the rust holder only, dont have time for brake (helicopter sound when braking), think have to come back on weekday.. sien..

yap, never heard one that have overheating problem over long distance travelling yet. Unless the radiator leaks due to manufacturing defect.

wub.gif Happy Morning Everyone! wub.gif

Phew..time fly..Chinese New Year coming very soon..a lots of Preve is going out from Klang Valley for the holiday. If jumpa kat highway lambai lambai la sikit..(kenot find the lambai lambai emotion pulak).

For all new owners, please check your tires pressure once you got your new car..it is normally over inflated, you will find your ride very bumpy..

Just ask them to recheck the ECU version again to confirm..normally sat they don't entertain you on other issues. Purely for servicing only.

22xxx above is using the latest ECU, goto prevoc buletin or ask allenultra...

new ecu is 100km/h>>2.2k rpm...and yes this is normal for new ecu...the power kick in somewhat in 1.8k rpm or 1.9k rpm...

for new engine, some of the forumers take and some do not...
for myself, i take it cause new engine would have debris of metal, very tiny2 one...go google to read more about magnetrap and u decide urself should get it or not...its ur money btw...

Hello bro,

I thought u always see me in FB? tongue.gif

Work busy lately, busy roll out project before CNY.

No ideas, suspect they didnt fixed it properly last time when they recall for power windows replacement. Now they change a whole new set for me.

BTW, i kena bullshit by f**k*** icare staff again...i suppose to install the ecotint for my preve today but when i got there the ecotint staff told me that they needed the letter (they called it RO) issued by p1 so that they can claim from p1 later. What the hell...i called icare, no office staff working on saturday how to get the RO. vmad.gif
At the end, it just wasted my whole saturday morning doh.gif
