QUOTE(plumberly @ Aug 15 2014, 08:51 AM) Thanks! http://www.dx.com/p/wide-angle-rear-window...67#.U-xSMsanom8The photos are not clear to me. I want to be able to see the lower back view (due to the high back of Preve). It says it can lower the view by 20+ degree. Good. Will keep this in mind and see the actual. Anyone here using that? If so, your feedback? Thanks. bro, I found those stuff in both jusco and tesco. but after check with my friend he claim it's useful for those straight back car. Like Alpha, Estima. If for preve, it's useless since our long boot still block the view. This post has been edited by nelsonmui87: Aug 18 2014, 04:42 PM |

Like Alpha, Estima. If for preve, it's useless since our long boot still block the view. But for straight back cars, why do they still need this lens? They should be able to see the full back. Maybe paste the lens at the highest point of the back screen then should be able to see lower? Cheerio. |

My case is that the sound will not go away by its own, so just claim.Helicopter sound as usual.. If over certain mileage, some SC will request you to "buy" the brake pad too. Brake pad is wear and tear item. |

I must say,
It's actually a self preference type of car, every car also got their negative side i believe. Try not to look down on Proton and i think we will have a pleasant experience with our Preve! Everyone say proton this bad that bad, when i got my car, everyone wants to "TRY". NAHH!! LoL! QUOTE(ChuanHong @ Aug 18 2014, 08:45 AM) please inform your SA first before u go for your trip. It's ok as long as dont over extremely.. I called SC, i explained and they told me as long as dont exceed 1500km. if 200km+850km = 1050km only.. its ok.. coz my case, i exceed 1000km too near to around 1150km.. still ok.. as long as u are not go to 2000km only go 1000km service.. there is no statement must go service at 1000km accurately.. if that SA cannot help, go other service centre.. no need let that service centre earn money.. Cross finger that day no problem arise. QUOTE(g00glesYYl @ Aug 18 2014, 10:22 PM) Claim for brake disc in SC immediately or in 1st services.

QUOTE(colboynick @ Aug 19 2014, 08:31 AM) I must say, to rectify whether your car got any disc brake sound or not, u may drive until at least 60km/h, then press brake pedal medium~hard. normally car store too long period in warehouse then disc brake worn out. direct claim warranty and replace it if there got ready stocks. if wait, always need wait for few hours for them to serve us..It's actually a self preference type of car, every car also got their negative side i believe.

Interesting. I don't get the helicopter sound and maybe that is because I have not braked when going at 60 kph.Do I read it correctly that this free brake helicopter sound repair is only for up to 1500 km and after that it will be on own account? Hope not. Cheerio. |

In the warranty booklet, the predelivery check was done in early July. After that it has been sitting under the sun at the port waiting for a buyer. So sitting there for about a month.Maybe I should reduce the music volume in the car now to pay attention to the brake noise! Ha. |

Any warranty claims can be done within the warranty period. No worries on that. The helicopter sound does pop out when the disc is warped, hence the need to change the disc.

Trying to decide when to replace my spare wheel even if I do not use it later. Checked the web and some says tyre's expected life is about 5 years. I forgot to check the manufacture date on that tyre when I took it out the other day. By the way, try taking that spare wheel out. The wing nut is very hard to loosen by hand or even with the tools in the car. Now it is hand tight and thus I can loosen it when needed out on the road.
Back to my tyre story. While looking for expected tyre life, saw this. My Preve wheels are V type (tested maximum speed = 240 kph). But I will stick to 110 kph as my max. My tyres are dated 2014, made in Indonesia. Think Proton should really support M'sian companies by using M'sian products even though Indonesian products may be cheaper. Just my view. Cheerio. |
