QUOTE(maverickng @ Jan 30 2013, 11:35 AM) u mean pull ur driver inside handle? ya la.. if u drive normal car, u open driver side lock sure 4 doors open together, logic right? That's what central locking is all about. unless u wan proton come out with AI based central locking la, with basic coding like IF and ONLY IF driver is in the car, other seat no ppl, pull handle= only unlock driver door. I believe there is no car with logic at their central locking, if proton can do it and patent it, proton can fly liao. This post has been edited by ben3003: Jan 30 2013, 11:55 AM

QUOTE(rich8833 @ Jan 30 2013, 12:03 PM) To me is normal la. If you have the 'stick' on your door like old proton, then people can use wire to korek & pull the stick up and open your door from outside. I like this design cos my previous cars all kena masuk before. i tot now they also can do the same trick? cos last time my door cannot unlock from inside outside, proton managed to open the door lol.. i believe they used slim jim to open the door.

QUOTE(kcng @ Jan 30 2013, 03:08 PM) most of the conti car has this... unless the central locking switch is pressed, the door will be individually unlock.. example, if the rear passenger side unlock the door, only that particular door will be unlocked, the rest remained lock from outside... same goes to the driver side, if the driver unlock the door by pulling the handle, only the driver side door will unlock and the rest remained lock from outside...  simple mechanism really... normal car driver side if u unlock, all other doors unlock, at least most of the car i drove is like that, kancil, wira, myvi, waja, honda city, then preve. i never try bmw or vw before so i dunno about their central locking. Cos for all those car is auto unlock other door ONLY for driver side, so if they wan implement something like if the car only have driver and wan unlock driver side only maybe they can use AI logic. Other doors no issue becos central locking only applies at driver side.

QUOTE(kyox88 @ Feb 1 2013, 08:01 PM) waaa ur language so deep cant understand  mine is manual (got clutch), not auto/cfe... just came back from SC for the helicopter sound, the mechanic told me my disc brake dirty, he helped me clean and then assured me no more sound...but later when i try 80kmph still got sound  helicopter sound is owes becos of lousy finishing on the disc brake, uneven disc brake most probably.. maybe u drive and wear out the uneven part maybe the sound will gone but u wan compromise ur safety to this shit? Last time my dad go SC kecoh then they die die fix the disc brake temporary for me, i think they grind the uneven part.. but now the helicopter sound still persist if i brake at more than 100km/h... i dunno is ABS or not.. cos ABS i tried before is like u can really feel it at the brake pedal there one.. dunno the abs got so intelligent or not..

QUOTE(alpayedo @ Feb 8 2013, 12:30 PM) did you immediately notice the braking sound during your 1st time drive leaving the showroom? if yes, later when i take my car, should be part of the check list. According to my SA, if the engine noise inside cabin is too loud, at SC we can request to cover any holes behind dashboard to reduce the noise. Not sure whether anyone ever try this & chargeable? can do like that? i duno le.. SA called me for fixing power windows which i never complain before.. so they really do recall afterall lolz..

QUOTE(Kinitos @ Feb 9 2013, 09:04 PM) Preve Turbo can only be fairly rated until they have driven Kia Rio 1.4 Turbo preve turbo is just soft turbo, normally they go twincharged with supercharger, below 2k rpm is supercharger which is something like electric motor, after that is turbocharger using exhaust to push the turbine.

FD2 is honda civic 2.0 type R i believe... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honda_Civic_T...sian_version.29if type R confirm cannot beat la Preve, but youtube all video show top speed around 200km/h only for honda 1.8.. preve ppl drive until 200km/h+ also, i believe is equal la if 1.8. O tried 160km/h on preve also no problem.. anything above never try, becos i hit 160km/h and brunei  then ahead is roadblock, kena saman malaysia dollar rm150

QUOTE(didot @ Feb 13 2013, 07:52 AM) Do u really know how to launch with cfe cvt? Here tips for you. Press your throttle with handbrake applied. Then release handbrake simultaneous with throttle pedal to metal. Second method, press throttle pedal to metal at gear position at n, then shift to d or s. You will feel like preve equipt with launch control. This is how to launch with cfe cvt. Because we need to close the clutch first, to eliminate the clutch delay, try this method and go drag with your mighty friend's civic 2.0. Then say bye2 to him. Yes. That is the way to launch/ drive a clutch based car for speed. U see ppl chiong drag manual is using the same method, just preve is automated clutch, so principle the same just u no need apply clutch and change gear. dont drive preve like a puny auto car, drive like a automated manual car  like savvy yo.. touch wood the transmission is not as fail as amt..

QUOTE(deity01 @ Feb 13 2013, 10:32 AM) Savvy is manual being automated...preve is auto being manualled.. cos both is auto using clutch based transmission  so must drive like a manual car style, only if u wan do proper launch la.. if u wan normal drive, don need la.. unless uphill. So far i owes smoke ppl at traffic light  , even smoke golf tsi before ecu when uphill, he wan overtake me but cannot, winding road also. but lose at traffic light, cos i tat time no new ECU, and i don put into S also, i also don use handbrake launch.
