Hi guys, my car is emitting a high pitch whistling sound when i move from standstill and stops when i brake, not sure what to make of it, can anyone help? Thanks.

CVT whining sound, i believe it is proton CVT signature sound, cannot remove one.

I thought the CVT produced a lower pitch whine if i am not mistaken, the sound i am hearing is a rather high pitch continuous whistle.

at wat kind of speed? is it like above 70-80km/h? then got this drone sound? that's also a cvt whine, or is it turbo spooling? i dont know which one, but i sure there will have such sound.

Preve hatchback with a revised gearbox, CVT3+, hence the lower CVT noise. Not just the mapping alone.

i seat at the back of honda civic hybrid, i hear road noise, on a tar road, speed 20-30km/h, it's in a neighbourhood, all the small stone hitting undercarriage/tyre noise sound so prominent from the boot, ppl still buy honda civic.

moral of the story, proton got such problem, ppl will say proton is owes a proton, civic got such problem, ppl wont want to share, or DONT dare to share.

Isn't that natural for safety reasons ?
I test drove this Preve few days back - and I am quite impressed with its overall performance. It is much better than my wife's Persona ( already 5 years old) and thinking of upgrading to it.

don owes blame tax, blame cronies like UMW, Honda, Tan Cheong, Sime Darby, Naza those AP holder.
