Hey guys,

Good Morning. My car just reached 1 age old on 11 May 2013. I have change my both Preve headlamp light bulbs within 1 year.

left light bulb change at age 9 months old at outside non-proton panel workshop which cost me RM25 perpiece(brand philips) and not bright enough.

right light bulb change last saturday at Proton Dealer (brand philips) more brighter and only cost me RM19.

RM19 philips perpiece is a standard price across all Proton Dealer and Branch workshop.

Should admin update the headlamp light buld pricing at the front page to alerts other compare the price before change at Non Proton workshop?

Hey guy,

Just to shared a story that i have experience this morning. The security guards was knocked my house door about 5am this morning, he ask me, is that white Preve at Parking lot Level XXX is your car.

I said yes and why? He said, your car break-in, the car door open.
After that i was went down to the parking lot with the security guards and he ask me, surprisingly when i reached my car parking lot, the driver side door and right rear passenger door was open, and the side mirror was open up also.

I was inspecting the car and found nothing was missing, smart tags and a tong of syling was still there. Windows and door was not broken and found no sign of broken in via hard tools.

I tried to start the engine, and everything was in normal. The guards ask me, anything missing and i said no. The new honda civic and new Ford fiesta model step next to my car also experience the same problem.

I was wonder, how does the door open? is the thief open a car door with a special master key remote key?

Is the thief failed to start the engine after open the door?

And one more question, i remember the car will auto lock by itself after unlock for few minutes.

it will only lock back itself if any of the doors isn't opened after you pressed door unlock from your remote.

doors includes trunk and engine bonnet.

Last night before went to bed after parked my wife Viva at her parking lot, we are still look around the car and make sure the car was closed properly.

I was imagine, any special key to disabled our car alarm and open the car door and same to the new gen of Honda Civic and Ford Fiesta which are few step next to my parking lots.


I was lucky, that he failed to start my car engine and drive the car down from my parking lots.

I think so, but i didn't open it before tongue.gif . Told be the salesman when i bought the car, in case of our alarm remote control out of battery or remote control not function, we can take off the cover and open the door with the key attached in our remote control.
