yes note it but the problem is the Tyre specialist ask me to reduce 4psi from the spec given. just wondering why? he mentioned better grip but i didn't know whether it give any side effect or not....  hmm.gif

Lower pressure means the contact patch between the tire and the road will increase, hence theoretically better grip.

Side effects include higher fuel consumption and tire botak sooner.

4psi down from manufacturer recommended inflation rate is already considered as underinflation.

and it will not make the grip better, because the contact patch is reduced. It poses hazard more severe than overinflation.

I just now test drive suprima s with my mother, the performance top class, i can say this car can tapau any average car, just want to ask, how to reduce the noisy engine? Since that the only thing that wont impress my mother to buy ipreve for me. My mother really picky one. She owned merc, camry 2011, and new 2014vios. The cfe engine not that quite.

if you want it quiet like vios, is nearly impossible.
same like if you want vios handling and power same like suprima, also nearly impossible~
want both? get something above 110k~ smile.gif

Hai guys,

I'm thinking to buy Preve at the end of this year. Now, my ride is 5 years old Waja CPS. With waja, my feeling was mixed. Sometimes, this car can give a smooth and steady power, sometimes not. I'm not sure why this happened. And just reached 40K mileage now, my car had a lot of rattling sound. This is make me a little bit down.

I'm still worry if proton still has a problem like my waja cps. I understand not all the car free a problem. but I really hope I can get a car without rattling sound, smooth power delivery and good NVH in it class.

Overpowered in preve and suprima CFE turbo xD.....but if you want something free from rattling sound especially proton, I dont think so. The way to solve the rattling sound is to DIY your car and do some dampening work to the rattling sound area. For engine noise, I think the new ancap preveCFE is now acceptable.

Well, you can always stay in town and still have low mileage.
That's not the point here.....

Too many factors/possibilities on an individual's usage pattern and to conclude on - where she lives in doesn't seem right. smile.gif
