You did not shut down properly. Probably you touch the start button too softly. Next time to switch off press the button in slightly harder. You will never face such fan still running issue
My wife's Preve CFE is 2+ years old n till today never had any issues with engine such as reversing engine sudden stop, loud whining noise, helicopter sounds during hard braking. Only issue was slight creaking sound at back seat in first few days n was quickly rectified at service center within an hour
We don't drive our cars hard n always within speed limits
*
No.
My problem is after switched off the engine, fan sometimes running sometimes not to cool down the engine.
I think fan MUST be running after switched off the engine. (before used to drive Myvi, not sure about this).
Is it normal for Preve CFE?

Engine switched off.
1. hissing sound
2. after ~10 - 15mins
3. then, new sound came out... something like "tak" / "toing"(spring putus)

Thank you.

Turbo engine will keep running the fan for a while after switch off to cool down engine. Myvi dont have turbo so it dont have this characteristic.

point no.3 seem a bit abnormal. perhaps you can make video and post it here  smile.gif
*
Means that, fan MUST be running after switched off the engine, right?
Seems it is abnormal for my Preve.
FYI, after I stop my car, I will let the car on until fan running.
Once fan stopped, i switch off the engine.

I will do a video for #3.

Thank you.

Just followed my instructions and you won't faced such issues again. I did experience these before few times when I was using the car in its first few months. But your issue#3 is new to me
*
Like you said, i press the start button too softly, YES smile.gif
Now, i press it a bit harder, still same. sad.gif

Thank you.

I have same problems like yours.

But mine is shorter, probably awhile then tak. Hissing depends. Kadang kadang ada, kadang kadang tarak. I also assume it is alternator or something...

How old is your car?
Mine is Preve 2015 (chassis # 59xxx)

Thank you.

Fan on - normal
Hissing sound - electric water pump to cool the turbo - normal. Yes there is an extra water pump used to cool down the turbo after you turn off the engine. That's why Preve does not come with turbo timer as standard. Unless you mod the turbo, there is no need for a turbo timer in stock Preve
Tak/Toing - expansion & contraction of the catalytic converter. Normal.

Another normal thing: burning smell in new cars. That's the burning of leftover oil/grease being burnt due to normal car operation. They will go away after a few thousand km.
*
I am super relief after read you reply.
Overall, my Preve is normal.

This coming Sat will be my 1st service.
What is the recommended EO for Preve Premium?
Syntium 3000, 5000, 7000
Target for oil change interval is every 10k.

Per itemized bill:
1. Engine Oil
2. Drain plug
3. Oil filter
4. Screen washer <--- can i reject this?

Thank you.

Thanks man , have been doing my research as I plan on getting a CFE soon enough and just one more question , how about the number of speakers in the CFE ?
I cant seem to find a proper answer anywhere

All the showrooms that I went had no CFE test drive or showroom models as they were recalled or what not due to the GST and are undergoing repricing

Even the COSE pun takde
*
4 speakers only.
Front and back.
No tweeter like Suprima S

Thank you.

Guys,

When and how to tell the turbo is kick in?
My SA said 120km/h. Is it true?
Last Sat, went to Melaka and want to test how fast my Preve can go.
Start from 140km/h @ 3000 RPM, seems it hard to go further.
I just managed to reach until 160km/h and got high beam far from back that was a Persona.
What's wrong?

FYI, I just did 1st service. They pour in Syntium 800 10w-40 sampai habis. Is it okay?
Per manual, Preve just need 3.75l only.

-Preve Premium 2015-
Thank you.

If raining/basuh kereta, water can get in also wor but not much.
Somemore, back passenger can hear loud noise especial tyre and rain.

For other than silver or white, you have to wait. I ordered red preve on Dec 2014, Got the car on end of March

Is it that long?
Firstly booking for Silver.
Then, my SA said.. end of April will get the car since Silver hot color and ask me to take red instead.
Since 1 apr = GST

Mine. ~2weeks.
Ordered 18th Mar 2015, got the car on 1 Apr 2015.

Hello guys,
Need confirmation.
I went to Proton SC complain about speaker.
My LF speaker is louder than the other (RF, RR, RL).
They say it is normal for Preve 2015 (New HU).
Is that true?

Thanks.

my window issue is like Anti-trap Power Window triggered when rolling up half way

Same problem and solved already (2 times).

Just bring your car to the nearest SC and ask to reset the power window memory.

Thank you.

sounds really a lot different.. yeah, of course in our preve cruising at 90~100km/h, mainly noise are from tyres.. so P3ST is a good choice? i check in michelin my website around rm430 each.. i plan to look one of the dealer in my place which is my friend's dad shop.. my preve almost 1 year.. mileage for champiro is 20k.. planning to switch it..

previous car i have in family mostly is falken and hanhook.. not very quiet.. falken starting very good.. after some mileage, noise back as well.. so P3ST is the best in quietness?
*
Nowadays, Michelin Primacy 3 ST tyre cheap dy.
Here(Seremban) RM350.

Offtopic:
@ChuanHong You from Penang, right?
Where is the recommended SC in Penang?
I will travel to Penang(Sg. Dua) this week and plan to do normal service there.
Thanks.

Hi Guys

Just got my preve yesterday,
Problems

1. Rattling sound (sounds like mounting problem)
2.Blaupunkt HU micro sim slot does not detect the micro sin card (navigation does not work)
3 LH speaker sounds more louder than the rest

Really hope proton can solve all these issues...
Furthermore its a May 2015 model
*
same problem for #3.
complained at Seremban SC, they will ask Blaupunkt technician to come.

been waiting for 2months, still no update.
End up, i have get used to it as it still acceptable and afraid it will produce another problem.

Thanks.
