3. and question here, when u turn off your engine, the side mirror will automatically flip back right? but when i turn on my engine and start the ride, is it compulsory i need to press to flip on the side window or can it be set automatically?
*

though it will auto flip out when ur car speed reach certain level (6km/h as i can recall)?

I have gone through numerous trouble fixing that sound but failed. No it still sound even the speaker board removed. Finally I think it is the chasis and welding defects. A soundproof shop help me open everything also can't find the exact source.but they stick all those thing on my rear boot chassis and manage to dampen the irritating noise.
*

u can ask someone drive ur car, you hide inside the rear bonnet and allocate the source of irritating sound...
someone here did this before as i can recall...

Im quite tempted to get a MT Preve but for RM60k im not sure its worth the money or not. Currently using a MT Saga BLM.

RM60k C segment car is worth...
most of current C segment non-local car start from RM90k nowadays...

Preve MT method is release clutch let the move forward then press oil

release clutch and press oil same time the "over smart ECU" will do engine braking (waste your oil) kononnya to ensure smooth pickup slow like siput
*

never heard different car have different MT shifting... though is depend on driver skill and preferences and road condition...

there have some skill called "rev match" as throttle up the RPM according to car speed & gearing while releasing cluching...
it is good as lesser wear and tear and clutch plate too and there almost dont have "shift shock" feeling (no engine brake or no sudden-boost) if skillful with MT enough...

anyway, poor AT (such as proton savvy) will serious "shift shock" with engine brake too which supposing to sudden-boost feeling as i floored the pedal from low speed to high speed

maybe due to throttle delay

i guess our modern ECU should have the capabilities to differentiate the car speed and RPM level while shifting, it it just same like drive a manual as Kinitos described...

but MT should have the room to reduce "shift shock" as we can play both pedals to control the car depend on road condition rather than 1 pedal only which have limited choices as controlled by ECU 100%...

anyway, definitely i will buy preve no matter how if there have CFE manual with premium spec... smile.gif
i still prefer to "control" the car rather than car "control" me... tongue.gif

that why dont go for normal 4AT as it consume some petrol there... it is better go for CVT instead...

I'm quite frustrated with my preve's alignment, done it about a month ago in CoSE, now it's running to the left again. About to travel to Penang. Should I wait till I get back, or is it OK to drive long distance with a misaligned car?
*

usually 80% of road surface will lean to left as draining the rain into drainage system.
recommended to test on car park concrete basement such as shopping center as those surface are almost 100% flat...

otherwise we will stuck on old car for 10 years if go for 7-9year loan as we have to top up while we sell car...

im not paying 10% DP.

i paid 12k+ and loan only 60k..which mean i paid 16+%

that is why possibly i will top up to bank around +-5k..

9 years loan maybe?

perhaps nego with bank to skip the RM1800 yearly interest for 6-7 years at least if 9 years loan...

one question to ask. Any1 hv this issue on while u put D mode on uphill, the car will still slide down. ( what i mean a situation like you waiting for a traffic light ) is this normal?
even in reverse mode during downhill, the car will slide down.
you guys get what i mean? please advice buddy
*

for normal AT, those clutch always kick-in and will burn the plate fast... guess CVT different...
unless high end car like veloster do have HAC Hill-start Assist Control then different story which maintain by brake pressure rather than gear clutch...

I told them im having tucking sound coming from my rear left boot area. They conducted a check and found touching part between suspension and body. Just asked them to check it.

Before that I asked them to drive my car and hear the tuckibg sound by themselves, so tat they will have idea which part is problematic.

i think u should means the joint of lower arm bar of rear multilink suspension system is it?

1. Reverse camera, RM200 to Rm250
2. Ultra Racing bars, around RM950
3. A decent ICE system, around 1.5k (sub, amp, decent component speakers. visited in shop in Shah Alam sec 25, I think they have good offers for quality stuff)
4. Firestorm? Highly recommended, improve FC and reduce engine harshness, smoother ride.

5. Cheap DIY mod. Please perform the turbo pressure hose (cable ties) mod and engine mounting DIY mod. Less than RM30 and u have smoother and better ride. To know more, visit PREVOC FB.

Not even tyre/rim yet...

Rm950 ultra racing bar come with front and rear ARB or others?
