Called We-Care hotline. Learnt that I cannot install a reverse camera in my Preve as that will violate the warranty even if it is a Proton reverses camera system. Proton SC will not do such modification.

I assumed that I could add the reverse camera as long as it is a Proton camera system and it is done by Proton SC.

WRONG!

Will keep that in mind the next time I buy a new car. Get what I need and not add things later.

Cheerio.

correct, they do not provide any modification. any external modification will be belongs to own risk. but our Preve Premium Head unit able to install reverse camera. U may install by your own risk with 3rd party. If got any problem, uninstall the reverse camera wiring and claim warranty..

just need the wire for HU and reverse camera.. need experience ppl to do it is better.

guys, my rear deck (speaker board area) there got tak tak tak tek tek tek sound when going uneven road. thus, i did soundproof there but still cant solve, wasted my few hundred bucks. i suspect root cause is the seat belt metal ball bearing sound, anyone here experiencing this or have any solution? if that is the problem, i guess all preve will have this issue?
*
i think i know what the problem.. should be the rear seat didnt lock properly.. fold your rear seat down and close it (with power) to make sure the lock fit nicely.. to make sure it proper locked, the button to release the seat is very hard to press down..

haha.. i asked my SA show me how to fold the seat during collection of car. after that i go home try myself and unfold back.. didnt know i didnt lock it properly.. until go 1000km service and query the technician.. they helped me check, then teach me how to unfold the seat properly.

method: when unfold the seat, just use power hentam back the seat kuat kuat. but make sure your safety belt is holding by your own first.. prevent sudden force, then safety belt locking..

Drive Preve like you would a manual, just like when you did hill test when taking driving license.

1. Stop on hill
2. Foot on brake
3. Pull handbrake
4. Foot OFF brake
5. Foot on accelerator
6. As the car feels like it wants to move, slowly release handbrake

Uphilll:

Thinking of upgrading from my Saga BLM to a new Proton either a Preve or an Iriz...either one is fine. I like the Preve but am a bit cautious on all its fitting and finishings as the Iriz is slightly nicer in that department. I quite like all the nice auto wiper auto headlights functions in the Preve, its size and its power but am still a bit torn on either car. I feel the Preve has a bit more added value for its space and features but the Iriz just seems like a more natural buy.

Currently I travel in the city between Nilai and KL during the weekends and city driving during the weekdays. In my saga, a full tank at a cost of ~RM63 can get me about 260-300km of petrol before the light blinks. What's the basic cost of fuel in a Preve (full tank cost and range)? Fuel consumption is one of the things I'm concerned on the Preve but understand that it's a bigger car etc.

Any advice from you guys on whether an Iriz or a Preve is a better buy or should I be waiting for a facelifted updated engine version...or the Saga 3? dry.gif
*
actually if you are young, go for iriz.. used for working, driving alone. Iriz is lighter and good in overall except the gearbox (what ppl complaints). so far i dont care about the noise as i didnt drive fast or sudden accelerate..

im young too.. but im thinking im not going to change my car in future 10 years (if car still running well), so i choose Preve. spacious, typical family car. actually depend on your preference.

i like the leather seat, charging output, headunit and reverse camera in IRIZ.. 62k?! vs Premium 73k with turbo, paddle shift.

last week drove my preve to cameron. We visited one place with like more than 30% slope. my preve can't go up with full load using S mode. its like it is still on the higher gear. the car moves abit then straight loss power and gearbox light on. so i have to step on the brakes and the light went off again.
premium with turbo model.
*
Laviino Cafe? nearby the Boh Plantation? if yes then i went there before too. u need press pedal from starting to successful climb it. if your case, same as me, face loss power in middle, just handbrake, release foot brake, press some oil pedal, release handbrake then car can go up slowly ady.. that road is LOL.

QUOTE(mental007 @ Dec 7 2014, 02:17 PM)
There is jam infront so had to use the brake. I did handbrake and pedal then only slowly lift handbrake with S Mode. The car got the power and move a little, then straight power loss even i floor the pedal. So had to stop the car cause dont have power to climb. Did that twice and still same. So had to go down all the way and let power build up to climb. Viva behind overtake me  doh.gif

Iriz premium offer more things. Leather seat, USB charger, reverse camera. While preve premium need extra install third party.

Recently I just installed mine reverse camera. Really saw ntg behind with my preve.

i know...but with the current promo...will diff about 30rggt monthly payment....extra 30 rggt i get a c class segment with boot...but sacrifice on newer tech in iriz...
*
both are good.. if u are ok with the current specs in Preve premium then should go with it..

hmm both are more or less same in handling.. the difference would be the weight, interior, space, boot space..

if u didnt plan car within 10 years, i think u should go for Preve. Standard Family car.. spacious, got big boot space.. weight higher so FC might be different level with common small car..

Iriz is good for working/study.. long distance also can.. just in future if u have family, baby, baby chair and other equipments put together, boot space might not so enough.. but other than that, its still is a good car.. very comfort ride on iriz..

the time i buy preve, got some news about iriz ady, but i didnt wait it, direct go for preve.. coz i want a big car.. i only get 4k discount and some free gifts only.. i should wait until recently to get best deal..

same hre, my wife book preve end of august, that time we also know proton and perodua will come out new compact car... but we no longer look for small car. so take preve, that time was wondering take the premier spec or exec type.... my agent told me if my wife not those speeding type and normally drive below 100km/h... just take exec wil do... save same 10k... he don mind he earn less commission ....

by the way, where u install reverse camera? i want get 1 also for mine.
*
me in penang install reverse camera. Epsilon camera, with socket, installation, all costs rm250.. its direct connect to preve headunits. Premium only..

yes.. for me i dont care much on fuel consumption.. per month maybe different rm50 or less than that.. 1 month me travel around 1500km.. i didnt care so much which car save another few cents per litre.. LOL so ridiculous. just drive.. i go for preve during that time is because the RESS body structure and 6 airbaags. safety more important to me.. read a lot feedback, many complaints noisy, and i really feel tht during sit my friend preve first batch.. Exec variants.. really noisy.. but i still giving proton a chance, request test drive. Premium not such loud.. so acceptable and i go for preve ady..

hi all.. im still new to this preve.. planning to get preve premium this month.. my questions are

1- if we use spoiler such as lancer GT spoiler, will it interrupt the sight  when we want to look through the rear view mirror?

yes.. sure will block part of it.. not recommended.

2- any recommendation for reverse camera? budget around rm300..

recently i just installed, direct mirror on Preve Premium HU, no wire cut, just connect a socket on HU, and make a hole for camera at the back. then done. workmanship important.. i find my friend do it.. everything put nicely.. no rat noise as ppl mentioned..

3- what is the best size for rim and tyres that will not cause the "sagat" issue?

no idea.. but i think 16 inch is good.

thank u in advance for the help....  notworthy.gif  notworthy.gif  notworthy.gif

1. yes. sure will block part of it. not recommended.

2. i just installed recently, rm250.. direct mirror on preve premium HU. no wire cut.. no warranty void.. plug it and view it.. since HU support reverse camera, plug in a socket, plug the camera, then thats all. Make a hole for camera.

3. 16inch will be enough.

Anyone here who use Proton Preve CVT Exec encounter this before.

Today when i drive from my house to University Malaya and have lunch with my friends then when i reach a dead end road so i have to reverse my car.

When i change the gear to R then i start to reverse the car.

While reversing half way my car suddenly engine cut off.

I have to restart back the car.

That time my car only on radio listening music through pendrive at volume 15 then aircond temperature and speed is only half that means only 50%.

I want to know why my car engine suddenly cut off and i have to restart the car when i reversing.

If manual / premium / LE also got this issue ?

I never read Premium variants got engine dead off suddenly.. mine unit never got this problem too.. hmm.. maybe in future when u go sc, please inform them u encounter this issue, ask them to reflash tcu or inspect any problem.. im sure they will received the same issue from others.. even in fb group also do read some executive variants owner mentioned about this.

Bro what means by TCU ?

I am still newbie in car knowledge. icon_question.gif

TCU is transmission control unit. since when you are engaged into Reverse gear and engine dead off.. probably is transmission issue.

TCU will do send a signal to ECU (Engine control unit) to retard timing. TCU function mainly is send transmission to ecu to tell engine shift the transmission nicely.

when report issue, just tell them your issue.. engine dead off after enter reverse gear. ask them check for you first. then solve it.

interest rate is based on personal income, epf statement and any related supporting documents.. different banks just slightly different 0.05~0.1% only.. not much different one. if young, epf only few months, then interest sure high.. those get low rate probably is got stable income for previous few years..

example, if u got guarantor with stable income, then probably will reduce 0.1%..
