To all Preve owners!! Need your advise as hopefully ill be joining you all soon as Preve owner. The thing is cant decide on the Exec cvt or Premium. Please share your views and experiences.

My concerns are..maintenance cost are they the same? Fuel compsumption is it much difference? And for Exec cvt is it underpower..Any problem while overtaking or hill climbing?

TQ and appreaciate all advise.

Hi guys. So has anyone got the poor radio reception issue fixed? I am going to carry out the engine Lube service soon with castrol edge professional 5w40. First 1k service was on shell helix ultra fully synthetic. Can't wait to feel the difference.

Haven't tried dat...u can try if u want...
Give ur key to ur fren and drive around town...
But make sure ur fren is just a phone call away... 

If that's the case, Then the car will be in a serious threat as anyone can get into your car and drive it away even without the keys as long as the engine is on. .

Then what about cars that are keyless entry? They can easily drive your car without any keys or engine on.

Anyway, today forgot to lock car and window still half way up. Inside got hp and laptop as well. 

when i start my car, hazard light automatically on. not all the time. but today happened twice from 3 times starting my car. anyone knows what's the problem?

2012 batch problem I discovered

1. Braking Helicopter sound - waiting stock
2. Might sluggish in low rev (old ecu software) - done on ecu remapping
3. Right side passenger door unable to open from inside. - done by changing the latch
4. A little Gluk gluk sound when turning steering during reverse - will rectify at sc when my disc brake arrive.

Just sharing a bit about Preve fc.

My preve's done 16k mileage. Last saturday i went from shah alam - kepala batas - tapah on 1 tank of fuel. Roughly 700++ km on constant 110km using cruise control. 95% highway. I'm guessing about 6.4l/100 km. 45 liters/700km. I kid you not.

When i went from shah alam to- kuala terengganu, managed to have 2 bars left. That was when just after my 1000km service. Roughly 7.8l/100km. 35liters/450km

The fc does improve over time. IMHO.

check chassis number...start with 22xxx no need remap...or 20xxx...

Two ways

1) Drive the car, if car easy to move after press pedal, means already reflashed

2) If press the pedal and need to rev before car can move, means ECU belum remap

Not sure your chassis is affected, a bit sluggish? Pls see the RPM, when you rev is the RPM showing 2000 or below 1500?

If below 1500, already remap and if that is the case, bear in mind that Preve is a heavy and big and do not expect speedy acceleration like Myvi, Vios.

If RPM above 2000, remap..

ahhhh i know it already..... just now i realise already..... if i crank before all the yellow indicator gone, it will either over crank or hard to crank sometimes

but if i crank after all the yellow indicator gone, thn no problem 

If these were the only color option..which would you choose...blue lagoon? Elegant brown? Or Silver?

hi all,the easiest way when u r on a slope is that treat it like manual car. When u stop at slope, u can put the gear to neutral n engage handbrake. When u want to move, slot to d, wait until the clutch engage without pressing footbrake. U actually can feel the car want to move forward. Or the easiest, monitor the rpm meter, if the rpm meter move at 1k rpm n above a bit without throttle, then disengage handbrake n apply throttle. It wont roll down.

On the other note if during stop n go on slope when u just using ur footbrake, u can slowly disengage footbrake to ensure the clutch is closed@disengaged then apply throttle promptly. If u fully disengage the footbrake it will roll down a bit b4 clutch is closed. if u disengage the footbrake very fast, dont worry,just apply throttle. Dont afraid to apply throttle around 1.5k rpm at slope cause it will start to move the car slowly, not promptly like auto car. If u r driving up on parking lot, u realise that the rpm is raise higher, but the car slowly move compare to auto cars. Its not that it doesnt have the power, but it is one of the strategy implemented for safety reason so that u wont bump to other car infront or maybe the side barrier cause if cvt doesnt have that strategy, it will be too fast. Thats why untill 1.6k rpm, the car start moving a bit slow b4 it release its full torque, in order to facilitate when driving in parking lot, stop n go traffic,over a hump n when driving around housing area where u need to drive slow. It is easier to over rev cvt equip car, n when the engine has so much torque at lower rpm, if release it for instance, it may endanger the driver n people around it. As additional safety measure,it also equip with traction control.

I had to agree with dares on hill assist separately, but it will incurr cost. But cvt supply by punch already has hill assist but it is not as efficient as hill assist in many dual clutch gearbox equip cars, but it has.

Bye.

Hi everyone!  just asking if this car is really that good? cos my family is considering buying a car for me as i just got my license (NO WORRIES I DONT DRIVE LIKE F&F)

I have been noticing this thread lately, all i heard are QC problems which is normal to proton cars, or else its the SC not efficient and  COE<< whats that? 

And i do notice that the 1.6 exe and 1.6 premium differences, like lack of airbags and ESC and some others which makes the price different by 10k... its a lot you know... cos i asked my dad if wanna buy this car but the premuim version one but he said too expensive compared to the executive version. For me i do prefer premium version as i do care about my safety and im a fresh driver too 

Its just matter of PRICE DIFFERENCE between the exe and premuim versions, or else im gonna get a car like Myvi for 50k or 2nd hand cars lower than that...

How about comparing to other same ranged cars like Vios, Almera, City and others?

I dont really care for the power of the car and other accessories or what... to me its SAFETY COMES FIRST. 

So is it ok to have the executive version?

   

OFF TOPIC:
And i heard after GE car price will drop, i mean reduce tax or whatever i know, so if i buy a car now then will i rugi? like a lot?
