I just got back from a holiday in Kuantan. During my travel there, I've noticed that my fuel paddle was not responsive for 1second-ish and that occurred 3 times.

It happened when the car was on the move, not during full stop to start.

What's the issue here?

And list of things to fix at SC:
1. Reverse sensor failing. Continuous beeping sound.
2. Steering shake quite hard occasionally.
3. USB charger doesn't work at the front cigarette socket.
4. Broken right rear fog-light.
5. Water dripping at the front passenger seat during excessive rain.
6. Sound quality issue when using Head Unit Mic.
7. Fuel paddle unresponsive.

And gear light indicator for exec model. Can't brain the decision for this to differentiate between exec and premium model. rclxub.gif

In sending my son to his school, I have to make a U turn and then a left turn about 100 m later. That road is the main and quite busy at timers and thus one to make the turn quite fast.

Surprised that after the U turn, the left turn signal light came on automatically without me switching on the left signal.

Am I the only one who has experienced this? No, I was not day dreaming! Ha.
*
Yes, that happened to me too, not. Hahaha. It happened but on the wiper stick, sometimes I triggered the wiper whenever I make a turn, so probably it's due to that.

Exec model now have gear light indicator??
Definitely not a feature in Preve unless yours comes with Satellite Radar Guided Signal Assist (i made that up)

No, it still lacks that. That's the dumbest shit ever to differentiate an Exec and Premium model car.

Had an accident this evening after the gym at the club. Reversed my car and scratched the Saga parked at the back (parked illegal). Damage to my Preve as shown in the photo.

[attachmentid=4222369]

Appreciate your view on how I can DIY repair the damage. Or better ask the car shop to do that? Cost?

What a day!

P/S Damage to the Saga was a scratch about 3 inches long above the bigger scratch at the front right light area (the wife scratched it while parking before this incident). The high back, poor lighting (at 6 pm) and the black Saga parked at an illegal area added to my mistake. I heard the beep and the light scratch. Good that I was not reversing fast. Otherwise it will be body dents instead of just paint.
*
What a coincidence. Someone scratch my car when I'm at work today. Most probably he/she parked his/her car next to my car and scratch the rear bumper when trying to exit the parking. Quite sad but luckily it's just a minor scratch sad.gif

For those who got the free YES wifi device that comes free with the Preve Turbo, do you still get the free line after 1 year? Surprisingly, it is already more than 1 year and still the line of my YES wifi device is still active.

I thought the line of the YES device is only up to 1 year?
*
Proton giving free credit worth RM 60 x 12 months. If you still got the rebate for more than 12 months, that's good for you. However, the wifi donggle capability will still works whether you have active line or not, it's just that you can't online with it.

Gee, someone curi my YES device?

Where was it mentioned about the free YES device? Can't find the brochure now.

If that was part of Merdeka package, I will go back to my SA.
*
It was part of the Merdeka package. I can confirm it as I bought my Preve with that package. Someone stole your device? Bummer. sweat.gif

I read around that after one year YES will not credit the Proton anymore but will keep charging you instead if you don't terminate it. It was unscrupulous practice by YES. better you check it out with them. I'm fairly certain you will be billed. But if you don't, then update the finding here smile.gif

That YES donggle is a prepaid donggle. You need to have credit in it to use internet.

i dare you to dispute that over many customers testimonial that YES kept charging them if they didn't terminate the plan Proton gave after one year smile.gif

https://www.facebook.com/groups/YES4GUCKS/?fref=ts

remember: YES have rm30 charge per month for administration on the current plan Proton provide us. Just check this statement on your ID at YES website. I already check mine

Proton gave us RM60 monthly, but RM30 will be deducted, therefore only RM30 worth of credit available on my usage. smile.gif
*
I got RM 60 every month from Proton and YES didn't take RM 30 out of it. Everytime they give me credit, I'll topup RM 10 and buy a VP68.

BUT, you only entitled to carry forward RM 30 of that RM 60 credit to next month if you didn't use the credit and that is what I've been told.

nay, on my statement on YES website rm30 is deducted every time proton credit rm60. it was maintenance fee i read some where on the terms, can't recall which.

so forward my concern to YES they said it's because of the old plan that proton give me, they advise me to finish the usage until one year, and terminate and switch to their new plan
*
And I'm using the new plan. I've made a call to YES when I got the huddle, just to clarify everything about it. It's a Prepaid and it won't work without credit in it and obviously having a plan is much better than without having one.

I thought preve side airbag is coming from B pillar. Because I saw airbag on the pillar.

There's one label on the left/right side of the seat that's written SRS. That's the seat airbag.

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

I wonder why people dont talk about the SAT gear function? Since most of the owners hate the CVT?

Saga FLX
"Proton does have an option for those favouring a more aggressive driving style: It has equipped the Saga FLX CVT with a “Stepped Automatic Transmission” (SAT) feature to simulate the gear shifting pattern of a conventional six-speed automatic.

With this feature activated through a SAT button near the gearshifter, the transmission control unit will allow the engine revs to drop slightly during upshifting while inducing a gentle transmission jerk at the same time."

It should be the same for Preve right?

Anyone here always switch on the SAT?
*
I tried a few times but I don't feel the jerk.

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 ?
