Hey guys. My Preve's steering wheel feels very "loose" lately. I wonder what's causing it. Can it be fixed at the SC?
My Preve is only 1 month old, btw. This post has been edited by duke_of_doom: Nov 4 2013, 10:11 PM |

So... CFE pistons and rings are made by a company called Kolbenschimdt from Czech Republic, owning a few manufacturing plants in Japan, China, USA, Germany, France and a few more. Their customer base includes Volkswagen and Volvo as well. Piston rings are made in Japan, I assume the pistons themselves are as well.

Proton branch sells the car at recommend OTR price and only give 'official' discount authorized by Proton, dealer or agent is willing to cut some amount from their commission to further reduce the price. thx agn for the prompt feedback, another thing is wats the dif btwn proton branch and dealer? as c dealer wit more discount (2.5k vs 4k)... thx... But buying from dealer has its 'risk', either good after sales service or bad one. |

You can always buy from dealer and service else where.But buying from dealer has its 'risk', either good after sales service or bad one. My personal opinion, dealers do provide better after sales service as compared to branches. Why? For dealers, its their own businesses. Unless the management want to let the business down, else they will try their best to work on service quality etc. As for branches? Its more about the brand name than the service quality. Public commonly thought that branch should offer better service but look at COSE?  |
