Like to know who are using car colour video camera recorder (on the front). Thinking of getting one. Appreciate feedback from those who are using one (brand, good and bad, price, etc).

Thanks.

I'm using Papago P3, recommended.

What's the price like?

I bought during promotion, RM 699. Normal price should be RM799 if not mistaken.

Thanks.

Look very high tech and good quality, better than the RM50-100 cameras one can get from China.

Noted that it runs on 12 V. I thought there is a 6V socket in Preve. How do you then hook up this camera?

Thanks.

Not an issue with the voltage, just plug and play.

Thanks.

There is no 6V socket in a car

The GPS is so outdated for a 2014 car!!!
Looks like 2 yrs old the data.
Roads gone liao still on its map.
Any way to updating the map not just the POI?
No I dun wanna pay RM360 for a new updated data card.

Also anybody fix reverse cam?

When did you get your car?

Hope mine will be the updated version. Car was manufactured in May 2014.

Cheerio.

Only state manufactured in 2014. where to find the month?

My SA manager saw that on the web when he made the booking.

Thx.. You sound pro n I shouldn't just refer to RPM only instead... Having to say after getting feedback from you guy regardless N, P or D is just the same... Not much fuel saved but D mode is much better to our gear box sound like... Thx again Sifus

Serious? Petronas give more mileage? I'm using Caltex 95 since day one n only able clocked the best milage around 50km per bar with very very light foot... At city drive 80%

Since day one collecting my new toy... SA advise me not to choice Petron n Petronas as both sound dirty.... So I just give n take this advice

Actually fuel consumption will be higher at D. Clutch wear rate also higher with excessive D mode use.

Same goes mine. The outdated map is just ignoring n I just spent few hundreds to get one portable GPS at least I can use latest map n update with free anytime

Oh my.. Thx but I bit confuse now with the early advice quoted by LoanDoctor where frequent change N or P to D will wear n tear more on gear box... So am I misunderstanding any here...? D or N better for gear box while waiting traffic light?

You will have to judge how long you're going to be idling in traffic light. If it's long, put to N. Both has their own wear.

I can't say for sure, but I always put to N. Otherwise I cannot get the fuel economy I'm currently having.

Hi, my preve experience 2 known issue.

1. Helicopter brake sound, does it safe? could I continuous drive on highway until 1k service? While book appointment, need to let them know first?
For this issue, I know could let SC to check or replace disc brake.
2. Third brake light vibrate sound, it's quite significant while the road is not smooth.
For this issue, I know is one of the known issue of Preve, but didn't found any solution? Any one got idea? SC could solve it?

Thanks a lot.


By the way, just sharing my owning experience of Preve Manual EXEC for past 1 week.

Manual Transmission
The manual transmission is quite class, I like the feel while switching gear. But the only downside is 1st gear acceleration seem quite slow maybe due to the heavy body. The engine roaring sound is there, but quite acceptable for me.
Suspension
It's consider a hard type suspension, similliar to Civic type but not altis/camry those soft type. So depends on your preference, for me I'm quite enjoy driving Preve, from 100KM/H you can notice a little wind sound and tire sound, while 110KM/H, the engine still maintains in 2.5k RPM so the roaring sound is not there. Got to highlight for the handling, 110KM/H is really stable in Preve.

Erm... act I'm not driving my preve daily so will update more again especially for Manual transmission.

Please correct me if anything wrong.
THanks.

For the 3rd brake light, u have to use those foam type double sided tape to stick the metal part to the plastic part.....
