Check the lining and condition of the tyre. Maybe worn out, pebble or stones stuck in the tyre or the steel belting in the tyre is out? It was reported that our stock champiro tyre could be old stock and hence could reach the end of shelf life.....

The manufacture week of the tire is printed on the sidewall, you can check it yourself

The Magnetrap product is a sound concept, except the magnets on it are too weak to be off any useful effect. Imagine, some users have complained that the bloody thing just fell off the car and disappeared.

Try to find a wrecked harddisk, open it up and take out the magnet, then find a way to fasten it to the oil filter.

I know using Magnet to trap metal particles in the oil filter, or even using a magnetized oil filter, is a proven concept.

I'm saying that the Magnetrap product is a poor implementation of the idea due to the weak magnets (Like I've mentioned, some of them just just fell off the oil filter). I've offered an alternative in the second paragraph of my previous post smile.gif

There are also products in the market that have powerful magnets for this purpose, which costs a lot. Magnetrap is not one of them.

doesn't make sense that preve without leather seat / reverse camera package
1. Preve HU support reverse camera, doesn't cost much by adding camera in to earn some profit margin...
2. Exora have leather seat as offered, i guess wont be difficult for preve to have leather seat? wont difficult for proton to open small tender by allowing leather manufacturer to participate into and proton can earn some profit margin from there...

unless another reasons is Proton managements / staffs didn't do the market research at all and ignored the potential of leather seat... doh.gif

They can easily offer leather seat as optional accessory like Nissan, but the price will be sky high I think

ESC indicator on the meter cluster will only flash or blink when you are on the verge of losing control and the ESC activates to save your skin.

ESC off indicator will show up if you press and hold on the ESC off button for a few seconds.

Only switch off the ESC if you are stuck in the mud or is driving on the track. Or your name is Ken Block.
