Hi ... good day for all preve owners. Newbie here,

Quick question here, btw I am using CFE ...

1. is it normal that I heard a sound like engine breaking I slowdown the car?

2. No sound from alarm when locking or unlocking?

What I notice, from static ... if start moving with rpm 2000 and above ... it not smooth but if control the throttle below 2000 rpm then smoother.

DRL ... Day Running Light means always on when engine start without on the headlight ... for Suprima.

For Preve ... only got 'position lamp' not DRL. Same LED but different function.

yes.. and dont use paddle shifter for shifting, let the cvt change the gear for u automatically..

You mean ... if slide gear knob to left and CVT still change gear for us automatically? I thought that position for semi-auto ... we still need to change gear like manual gear.

Yes... it used to protect your gearbox and engine...
what the reasons what you to maintain at 5000-6000rpm on the same speed?

the CVT allowed to rev till 5500-6000rpm before shifting considered very good enough...
unless u intentionally want to blow the engine at 8000rpm then nothing we can help...

we dont talk about the CVT issues here... NONE of modern car allowed you to rev till red line as most of ECU with rev-cut features even though you driving manual car... i guess my responds clarified your doubts...

OK ... thanks. I should try this.

When going down hill we tend to press breake pedal and left acc pedal but the rpm shoot up and engine sound high (i think engine breaking sound). Is there any way to handle this?

CVT Whining sound ... I think Proton should put lower price for mayb the 1st year customer and after all problems solve than new price. Or they promise will fix every things.

Now it like every one know that if buying Proton early batch after new launch there will be problems with the car ... it look like the testing Dept. didn't do their job!.

I hate to hear that sound ... hopefully people outside hear it differently whistling.gif
