Vincent818, I'm keen to buy CFE, please PM me your best offer in detail. If it is good enough, I make impulsive decision and buy. To be fair to you, I've test drive the car in Kesas showroom and have 2 other SA offer me their deal, but I wish to see your deal and possibility of supporting you. TQ

2013 ANCAP 6 airbags - RM5500.00 discount, good price?

My facebook page reported car loan interest rate will be increase soon, so, should I wait, I believe car sales will drop, then can get better discount later?

Got my CFE today, first full tank RM101.10. Already done 15km when taking the car. Tried the rain sensor (raining in Kesas) and Auto light, both work splendidly. But in Federal Hway slow moving jam, without touching the accelerator, the car moving jerkingly with tacometer move up and down, while aircond felt cold and less cold intermittently, it could be aircond not stable? Electrical Relay issue?

8pm went out for dinner with my new purchase, alas, no HEADLAMP! Oh oh! Proton oh Proton, No light! Turning the left knob down to "Auto", no light, turn up 2 bars, no light, turn all the way to main light, ALSO no light! OMG! There's such light when tested it in show room. Try High Beam light, yes, there's high beam, the rest nothing. Fog lamp got as it is by pressing button control. No choice, but to drive out with High Beam light and just back from dinner. Anyway, it is "within" expectation lah...now flipping the thick manual....

I guess I have suffered from "Stockholm syndrome" where I readily accept lousy QC of Malaysian "Proud" car which I proudly choose it over Honda City and spend my hard earned money on.

Then called 1800 888 398, spoke to a good "QC" staff, helpful, share my unhappiness, guided me properly to the service facilities in CouE (Centre of un"Excellence"), can get service without appointment as it is related to safety issue (driving without head light is safety!!), will spend time there reading the thick manual, for "safety" purpose!

Guys~~i sent my car for the 5k service at Section 13 Service Center this wednesday~~

the Service Agent told me that there is a new version of ECU Mapping just released yesterday (Tuesday) and recommend me to wait an additional 30 minutes for the update...

well im not sure others have problems like this....previously there are some jerking when i drive at slow speed (highly acceptable in my opinion) and the clutch like not engage when stop and go on steep slope...(same goes to reverse up slope when parking)~~

but after the new ECU mapping, the car feels MUCH MORE RESPONSIVE and the jerking is even further reduced (used to jerk mildly for 3 times now...max 1 time)~~up hill acceleration improved significantly....engine break also felt stronger~~

Anyway..the downside is..i noticed the fuel consumption is slightly increased (i always look at the meter for FC changes) i reckon this is a small price to pay for a smoother drive~~

anyway mine is CFE ANCAP~~recommend u guys to update this new ECU Mapping....

Also recommend Sec 13 Service Center...got free white coffee and astro~~plus wifi (i did not use it as i never use up my plan's data)~~service staff is nice and polite....did not recommend me any other weird stuff (except X1R during the 1st service)

Do I need to do appointment to do ECU Mapping at the Section 13 SC?

Underneath the front passenger seat. It is use to hold the weight sensor's electrical cable in place.

1) Anyone know the location of external temperature sensor for Preve CFE?
(Minta tanya dimana lokasi sensor suhu luaran di Preve CFE?)
2) May I know what's the different between Preve CFE's "Climatic Control" vs those model that do not have this feature?

I dont think Preve/Suprima can check outside weather temperature..

U r right, there's no temperature meter in the car, but the question is whether there's this outside temperature sensor, this will decide whether the "Climatic Control" feature is for real or fake because this system will need an outside Temperature sensor to function properly.
