Early morning did 10K service of my CFE.
This time i try Liquimoly 5-40 with a bottle of Ceratec. Very looking forward to test this thing kaw kaw.But immediate response with the engine oil is the car feel buttery smooth, even smoother when i did 1K serive using Shell 5-40. The jerking is slightly reduce also. Ceratec dunno how yet, cz this morning after service i fill them in at office car park. i didnt drive my car at all after that.Today is paperwork day TT

Will shifting up via paddle also reduce rpm and resultant noise as well?

It does but you will be going downhill even faster(dangerous) and engine breaking will kick in again at certain rpm, like a true manual. so great care must be taken.

Do any of u guys feels that our Preve seat is too high?? i had crank the height all the way down and its still high as Everest, at least to me,dang.

Thinking of doing some modifications to the seat rail itself, lowering them more.

Since our seat got Airbag switching to Recaro wont be a good solution, unless theres is a way to bypass the safety belt and SRS Airbag check light. The original seat is not that comfortable too. I miss the Recaro on my old car TT

hello everyone, i'm a first batch CFE owner and a very very silent reader of the preve tread since april 2012, had my OWV changed twice, side mirror once, and I still can't or don't know how to use the GPS system (i don't think it's working as it should). I regretted not doing the Sierra Glow when I first got the car, cos I don't have the money for that since all my savings went to the d/p for the car, i'm tempted to change my rims and trying to keep my faith in the preve that it is the best proton car yet...

there are a few things i'd like to ask, if anyone could help it would be great.

1) Is Section 13 SC still in operation? if so, I will need to call in advance before sending my car in for service, right? Can anyone share the contact number please? I've been sending my car to Setapak SC since day 1, and it's time to try other places.

2) There's something wrong with my reverse sensor alarm aka sound, everytime i reverse it's only doing "teeeeeeeeeet" like something is really really near, instead of doing "teet" "teet" "teeet" "teeeeeet" "teeeeeeeeeeeeet" as I'm reversing closer to the wall. Anyone got the same problem?

3) Is it just me, or the audio speakers suck? I had better speakers in my wira last time. I can't turn it up loud enough to play my music without the speakers sounding like the no-brand cikai cheap speakers. With that said, if I change / uprade all my speakers, will my warranty void?

I hope someone can help me with these.

Thanks
