light bulb burnt, hmm what can cause that?
mine till now, touch wood, still ok. next month 1y.o.
i didn't do engine wash, no modification to the wiring, no change of bulb.

1. engine wash causing short circuit?
2. modification to the wiring?
3. powerful battery?
4. purely due to poor QC?

Set gear at P, pull brake, release foot brake and press yhe button and not hold the button. If it doesnt shuts down, means something is wrong.

guys. preve is a heavy car. heavier than civic and corolla. (im comparing within the same class)

do you have any idea on how to reduce it's weight? reducing weight will help in saving fuel and faster launch. i did remap the ecu and feel better, however still im thinking of reducing it's weight.

is it possible? what can be done?

Lighter alloy/wheels. Remove non-car related stuff from the car like carrier bag.

Other than that, must start remove stuff. Spare wheel. Spoiler accessory. If want to remove more weight must be prepared to go rally style with seats, ICE, airbag, carpets etc laugh.gif

Or maybe the preve hatchback is lighter?
