Been reading this thread for some time..
I Gotto say really useful information provided! Thumbs up!

Getting my car tmr.
Despite all the negative thing i heard from friends on Preve, it still attract me the most comparing to others. (+ - 10k)
I guess its the stylish head!

Been worried bout the FC, but driving a big solid car, this is the cost you need to pay right?


My question -

I realize the DRL in Suprima S is brighter than Preve?
Anyone know where to tune it brighter? How much it cost?
Actually is tuning or changing?

My SA told me i can add on the bodykit from R3 for 3k full set.
Is this the normal rate?

Thank in advance!

Got my Car yesterday!



Helicopter sound as usual..

****
But i need to clarify one thing,

Im facing reverse difficulties as in when i try to reverse, it seems like you really have to press down the paddle quite a lot before the car start reversing. I must say its actually not steep at all!

Is this normal or i should bring this up to SC?


***
Im in D mode, going down the hill, my RPM went up and dragg my car.
I have to brake the car halfway and all the way down the hill??

I dont think putting N mode downhill is a good idea. @.@"

***
Thanks Sifus in advance!

Thanks Raymond! Will see for this few days if the helicopter sound still exist.


Thanks Mushy! Just so not used to the reverse. Slow and powerless unless "tekan!".

I will try this when im back to the road! Thanks Sanadi!

Noted! Thanks a lot Mengsuan!

Sifus!
Im facing a dilemma here..
Im going down to Kedah from KL next week.
Estimated 850km for return trip.
Plus mileage now is already 150km.

I got one week of work left which will round up to 200km this week.

By this time i would have passed my 1k service.
SA told me SC would forfeit my 1k service.
But i got no choice but to go for the kedah trip.

Please advise..

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!


I called SC, i explained and they told me as long as dont exceed 1500km.
Cross finger that day no problem arise.


Funny part is sometimes i hear the sound, sometimes it seems like its gone.
Will monitor again this few days. Thanks!

Hey Sifus!

*I had check through manual book*

Anyone has the answer, when does the soft turbo kicks off?
I mean the Rpm.

My friend told me 3.5Rpm,
My SA told me 2.0Rpm and above.

Just want to make sure so that i can keep myself a limit. LoL

Thank You!

Thanks ChuanHong!

I restraint myself from above 2k Rpm currently.
But i think its quite easy to go over 2k Rpm right?

Where did you get this information?
Could you share with me? I wanna read more on this..

Thank You in advance !

Thanks for the info!

Yea. Im currently doing below 2k Rpm.
But traveling to Kedah soon, so i dont think can maintain 2k Rpm dy. haha!

This few days i travel to office, I press softly. 2k Rpm at most.

Actually not so bad la.. Just that expect slow start after green light.

Other than that, pleasant ride to office and back home!

Maybe just change from Manual to Auto. Thats why left leg feel easy, thats why pleasant ride. HAHAHA!

Hahaha!
I dont think I will have the chance of trying at this speed. (Mom's on board). LoL!!

Is it s a good idea to go exceed 120km/h before 1k service??
I was about to try but Manual book says dont exceed 120km/h before 1k service.
*Engine hasn't kick in, to confirm brake fully function, engine oil not full or smth, ?(this is those i heard around not to try exceed 120km/h before 1k. Myth??


Thanks for the information!

It took me sometime to google "Spooling", but its a good read!!
I will try turbo after my 1k service.

Hey ya!

I read about this before i got my car.
But there are still loads of people debating about this.
So im kinda like 50-50%.

I just want to clear this up : -

Hard break in, said as better and clear engine up!
But will this exhaust the engine at first = FC will be high onwards.

I know it dont sounds convincing, but just want to confirm on this.

Thanks in advance!

Its for the boot tray.

Lucky you!
I had my 1st service there on Tuesday. Left my car there at 7.50am then went to work.
Only got my car back at 5pm when they finally called and says done. =.="
I hated the receptionist attitude so much! "Belum siap, sudah siap kite akan call la~". I called twice also tell me this.

Sect13, PJ.

I left my car there while i walk to work..
I dont think they followed the number to attend to my car.
Tak nampak owner then tak payah service dulu. =.="

Go to those proton SC. They will rectify it for you.
I dont think you will need to pay if the car was delivered this way.

I called SC to inform them i will be exceeding my 1k before i went. So that they know and you can expect less "bla bla blah" at SC. *they told me less than 1.5k is ok, but i played safe, sent my car around 1150 milage.

In proton service,
I felt their serviceman really good and friendly. Just that those receptionist, blardy not helpful and **&%$&%!!
Look at the bright side of the car! loves it!

I think you should call them up and ask if its possible to top up.
My experience is i spoke to the service guy before i make a trip down.

Got my advised from sifus around, dont let them earn that bit of money if they cant satisfy you.

Hi Sifus around,
Im kinda attracted by Sportivo BK.
Not so sure if this body kit face the same problem when going through bumps and parking.

Anyone using Sportivo? Price range?

**Facing dilemma in either changing rim or BK first.

Been with my Car for 3months now..

Just realize that we are suppose to press the start button TWICE before pressing down the brkepad and third time for starting engine.
All the while i press start once and brakepad and start again.

There is one morning when i start my car, the viper, double signal and lights all on by themselves. Thats the moment i start pressing start twice before third for starting the engine.. @@"

Craps. i hope i did not short-circuit anything in there. *finger crossed*

I think i have some probs with my car radio.

I set 92.9 on channel 2, but somehow, after listening for some distance(on the way home roughly 45mins), the radio channel auto change to some malay radio frequency.

This doesn't happen when i turned in to my set channel 1 frequency (88.1).

I dont think its frequency disruption because the auto change frequency can happen in anywhere during the way back home.

Anyone facing this problem? I dont think SC can help as i myself also not sure when will this happen. =.="

Btw, there is really difference when you try to drive with your RPM below 2 and above 2.
I was pumping 30litres for 4 occasions, 2 occasions i drive below RPM2 and another 2 above RPM2, was at 2.5 to RPM3.0MAX (tekan sesuka hati). There is really a difference! The distance variance could be up to 50km..
I could not confirm this data as i only pump for 4 occasions for this testing of myself. Try it guys.
