Hmm, for my side, i am happy with my non-turbo so far as i am more into fuel saving. oucch.. but to be honest, have to b careful in using a proton as its not really good for a rough usage.

I just spoil my front light adjuster with a slightly sharp screw driver. i am not aware that they are using a rubber screw hole as i am dong that at night. Well i was a bit harsh to my car tat time T,T . So, U have to care ur proton like a baby as u like how u take care of the milo tin body. than u can be a happy owner like me.. with my grief toward my headlight T,T

I had my advise from an engineer in peugeot who is loyal to proton ever since he bought a car. Proton could be the best affordable car as long as u are using the original part. Once china part come in, the car can be die after few years for some trouble lead by the replicate part.

ha..no worries. i'm a rough driver too! rclxms.gif

btw, mengsuan more rougher, hit curb, windshield crack, insulation leaked on undercarriage, rim hit, hit bumps tongue.gif

joking bro mengsuan.. tongue.gif

why IAFM+ cant install SC bang?
got internal or control strategy changes between the two?
*
different intake manifold, engine block and ecu etc or so i heard. piggyback ecu still can't be used on iafm+.
more precise details u can ask proreka on their fb page.

but i do know this : to one user query if the SC can be use on "godly" vios, they said can tongue.gif laugh.gif

Preve Premium CFE? It is from Bosch. Called Bosch Multimedia Compact. Cannot be changed to Garmin of Papago. Better get a new head unit if you want to change the GPS.

different intake manifold i percaya.. but different block?
IAFM is Intake Air-Fuel Module rite?
it is standalone unlike the VIM in CPS...
different tuning from 6.5k rpm max to 6k rpm max is probably done in the new 32bit ecu...

of course "god" car can la.. how long that 1NZ-FE been in production?its a mystery if they havent made a SC or BOT for it...
*
can't remember exactly, for precise details u can refer to them on fb. i follow them just in case they ever made SC for CFE.
then we'll have twin chargers like golf gti tongue.gif

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

approached Kesas SA before met Vincent and still they can't beat Vincent's offer rolleyes.gif

Hye guys can anyone tell me is there any difference between 2013 ancap and 2014 ancap?
Im a bit confused with my SA now since i asked for 2014 version but she mentioned about 2013 version.

A list on any diff between 2013 / 2013 ancap or 2014 / 2014 ancap would be much appriciated here.

Hopefully any dealer/owner can help on this matter thks in advance. smile.gif
*
no difference...but for ANCAP 2014...em..u might get headlamp levelling adjust button though..just might. depends on luck brows.gif
was shock a new buyer on prevoc fb got his car with the levelling button.most people there are raging! haha laugh.gif

QUOTE(vincent818 @ Mar 17 2014, 11:23 AM)
the difference is only year of make , inside all same .
some of the 2013 stock may come with original coil mat carpet , boot tray , security ecthing for chasis number on the glass.
is not worth to buy a 2013 even the discount is little bit more then 2014 stock becoz :
1. 2013 limited color available,  you may not get your favorites color
2. little difference (Rm2000 only ) on the discount
3. very old stock (4 months ++ put in stock yard ) ,some of them even a showroom unit
*
how can u say that...mine is 2013 ANCAP... sad.gif

david, on the picture, it seems the coil mat cutting is fuller than carpet mat? is correct?

for carpet mat we have some uncovered space on the floor, but from your picture it seems the coil mat covers most of the floor. is right what i see? unsure.gif

Another thing,

Does 2014 exec comes with drl? Hby?

QUOTE(ZeroHavoc @ Mar 17 2014, 07:34 PM)
The reason i ask is because my friend bought preve cfe that comes with drl.
Just curious for exec version.

His car is 2013 model if im not mistaken.
*
u must be mistaken hmm.gif

Look, preve and suprima shares the same headlamp, however preve's DRL function was deactivated/disabled right out of factory by Proton for reasons unknown. We can enable it back by few simple mods, a lot of preve owners been doing that.

Preve "position lamp" is dimmer and set to 'flicker' mode, you have to switch it on manually, whilst Suprima "DRL" is brighter and will automatically switch on by itself when the engine starts.

Try compare Suprima's DRL and Preve's position lamp. You'll get the picture.

Hi Preve owners, I am also considering joining the club. I am also looking to upgrade mty ride to the Preve 1.6 Exec CVT (Non-CFE). Currently my ride is the Saga FL Manual Executive. My concerns are as follows:

1. CVT noise - how bad is this or its bearable?
2. Engine Noise - compare with my Saga, I guess I can accept this.. biggrin.gif
3. Power and pick-up - consulted with SA, recommended me to go for CFE but I do not have the budget. Is the pick-up really bad? I did not want to go for test
    drive as the one they have is a CFE and is not the model I am looking at.
4. FC - they say the normal CVT model drinks quite a fair bit but if go outstation is good - similar to my Saga FL?

Do please give comment/your thoughts on the above. I am very keen to upgrade to the Preve. Thanks
*
CFE is the better choice since the car is heavy...
One CFE owner in the group said he once got overtaken by a Saga FL.

So...you decide what is your ride. tongue.gif brows.gif

sedan or hatchback in one of my concern but not my major concern... I'm more to design and features... want to got with Suprima S at first but the dashboard panel color makes me think twice.. want to go for preve, but its entertainment system screen look small compared to Suprima S...
*
then go for Suprima. Then change the panel finishing later on outside smile.gif

TBH, I pick Preve because of sedan type. But I would love to get my hands on leather brake lever, leather gear knob, leather seat, and bigger entertainment screen. Combine all that cost to replace would be pricier than changing the panel finishing I think icon_rolleyes.gif

EDIT:

Beside, Suprima S doesn't look nice on R3 Bodykit. Preve looks more fierce! thumbup.gif tongue.gif

Yes, that's why I'm consider and compare with Suprima S. Just the cons, the plastics gear knob. IMO Preve dashboard panel looks more exclusive compared to Suprima S. What about you guys?

does preve premium comes with reverse sensor or cam?
*
I know many who dislike Preve "fake wood" trim laugh.gif laugh.gif
They prefer the one in Suprima, but now you say the opposite? biggrin.gif

Oh, btw, Suprima Exec is using 16" Rim as the tyres, only Premium Suprima uses 17" Rims.
And ask around seller here, I got quoted 17" tyres much cheaper than the price you thought it would. below RM300 is possible. Below RM600 is also possible.
Rabak poket only by choice, you can choose which tyres you want smile.gif

Suprima S light color trim makes it look cheap.. IMHO.... and wondering why Preve for Indonesia market use better HU (Blaupunkt) with larger Screen compare to our local market?
They should offer this HU with 2014/3 Model or ANCAP Model...
