i wanna ask, when i tried emergency brake, like when travel 30-40, i suddenly slam the brake in, i can hear very loud "bang" sound from the engine and i swear i did not hit anything becos the road is clear, i test it around my neighbourhood. Last time i tried once before also got bang sound, i tot i hit the motor in front liao.. may i know wat sound is that? is that the abs kicks in?
*
30~40 no abs, even if got, also not bang sound

i think is maybe the sudden stop make the car swing so hard and the front bumper hit floor? or wheel hit fender or sumthing like that

so how? any solution? can fix at SC?

i didnt went and ask at SC

but alot of people say doing sound insulation can fix that, and sound insulation isnt cheap, so i think SC would not help you fix that, even if they do i think the problem will come back within a month

Was driving my parents around town today and my dad asked to send the car for checking.

What happened was while going up a steep slope I accelerated and the engine sounded like it was really underpowered and the car kinda vibrated a little and at times from a complete stop when I accelerate, the whole car will vibrate and the engine sound is really loud & annoying.

I take that as normal for the CFE engine. Just wondering whether the others are facing the same. Ady reflash and using firestorm too.

did u put into S mode or use paddle shift?

i went up genting hill in penang an the slope was REALLY STEEP, even i full pedal with gear D the car hardly move, in the end i drag gear to go up with paddle shift and it works pretty good

Tree sap spotted at rear boot and windscreen after park few days under the tree. Sent to premium cash wash also not helping.

Googling shows some home solutions,
1. Hand Sanitizer
2. WD 40
3. Nail Polish Remover [doubt this a bit too strong]
4. Meguiars ??

Or should send to professional polish and wax? My 3 months baby...

Hi guys..I test drove the preve executive auto earlier.. Just curious whether the engine is so loud is normal for cvt engine or not? Cos i could really hear the noise when i press on the pedal and some of the forumer, say that the insulation is good.. Is it everyone experiencing the same thing? The test drive car chassis number is 23k..But I could feel the sluggishness below 2krpm..has been remapped with new ecu or what? Thanks for clearing my doubts.. I particularly like the handling =D.
*
apparently i think executive soundprove isnt as good as cfe.... not sure about it tho but cfe theres a ply of heatshield on the engine cover maybe that filters out a bit of sound

How to use ESC?..i press ESC button several time but no indicator at the meter screen. How i want to know if the ESC is working or not.. I know there was indicator light at meter because when i want to start the car when press the start button twice all indicator light illuminate
*
if u wanna see that ESC indicator light, you need to corner hard until it kicks in, when ESC kicks in the light will appear

if u wanna see that ESC off light, hold the ESC button till it appears

ESC is on by default all the time
