erm..if not mistaken, previous seat doesnt come with air bag? Preve is the first?
Not really sure about this~

I think the cause of the sound is not the airbag..it is the design and material used that is low.

Cannot brain their logic...how about the side mirror for cfe? need to manually press to unfold when reversing..other cars when you start the car, the side mirror auto unfold..

programmed ecu is like that.. there is good and bad thing for this.

Good thing :
- if you just want to unlock the car to take stuff out, the mirror would stay put.

Bad thing :
- mirror would not unfold until u reverse and hit certain speed, then mirrors would unfold but can be easily unfold by pressing the button.

I don't think the unfolded mirror is a big issue. Seriously, how can one not notice the mirrors are unfolded and how much energy does it take to press the unfold button?

About the warranty, it makes sense if you put yourself in Proton's shoes, or any manufacturer in general, you want your product to stay unaltered. If it's doctored in any unauthorised way, they can take their hands off the responsibility and claim it was the alteration that caused a problem.

if the mirror unfolds when you START the engine, that would be ideal.

i did that, WD40 + grease. Solve a little bit. cannot totally make sound gone. i think thats maybe design and cut cost( maybe can wrap with some material to kill the sound?) , even go change a new seat, problem still there. just like fur problem.
so i give up~ haha

i did it twice. spray again until no sound, been 8 months now.

Just got my preve. F the sa. Kept denying that he ever promised me full tank petrol. Visor say no stock have to wait.

Anyway, seriously feel that preve exec is underpowered. Viva 1.0 manual can accelerate much faster than my car. If only I have test driven the exec instead of cfe, I wouldn't buy exec variant at the first place. The car weight is really too heavy for the engine.

And ts pls add me into the owner list. Preve exec white cvt owner here..

Well, you can't blame anyone other than yourself... you went for CFE test drive session but bought Exec without ever seating in the car... blush.gif

Light cars like Viva don't need powerful engine to feel fast and swift. To feel the same on a heavy sedan, it's not likely. If you need that zippyness, even CFE couldn't give you that.

Just as comparison, my modified Persona with turbo, more HP than my Preve LE, could be overrun by stock Myvi easily at short routes

Btw, don't you worry adding visor will cause wind noise? I'm glad that the Preve doesn't have one unlike my Persona.

Preve MT uses Getrag's 5MT gearbox, not Mitsu's....
