To Preve Exec CVT owners:

Anyone have solve the R<->D car engine die off problem by SC? Had another die off condition last weekend.

Condition: Go to D mode, then R, the car slowly reverse, suddenly engine die off, have to wait for a while before I could start my engine, and it is damn frustrating+embarrassing, blocking one car and half way entering my in law house.. vmad.gif

Have been having few times of these condition ever since I got the Preve. Try to slowly change from R<->D but still happen, and only Preve CVT have this problem doh.gif ???????? I tried my bro Inspira CVT, no such problem... shakehead.gif

So, there is no solution to this problem except shifting slowly like a turtle?

guess all of Preve owners also having this problem...no solution from Proton...Mat79 did explain something about this CVT issue, but since I tried with Inspira CVT without any problem, I just thought that Preve can have a workaround to solve this issue...

feel disappointed, some other problems starting to come out after few months, mainly noise problem which I think can DIY..the only thing I reluctant to accept is this engine die off when shifting from D<->R ... sad.gif

I think need more than 1 sec bro..because I shift from D to N first then I waited for a while before I shift to R, then I wait until the car reverse on it owns, I never press the fuel pedal (normally will die off immediately if you press fuel pedal when switch from D<->R), the car reverse for around half a meter, then die off, I tried to start the engine, cannot start, so I sit inside my car, turn off the ignition, wait for few seconds, then start my engine again..only can start..don't tell me this is for safety reason.. kalau ada perompak, dah kena hack sampai mati.. sweat.gif

add: not April Fool joke although it is 1st April today... laugh.gif really happen and feel insecure..

Anyway, since you say will get use to it..there is not much choice but to accept the fact that the Preve behave in such a way..

Lastly...Happy April Fool's Day biggrin.gif ...enjoy the rest of the day carefully...haha
