There's always a hissing sound from the engine bay, near the air-con compressor and radiator area whenever I switch OFF the engine after a drive with the air-con switched ON.  It will last for a few minutes and sounds like an air leak.  It only happens when the air-con is used during the drive.  If I drive without using the air-con, there is no hissing sound.

I had tried to check for air-con gas leakage but there is no trace of compressor oil stains on the pipes, hoses, couplings and joints of the air-con system.  Also, the air-con is still as cold as usual.

Can any PREVE CFE drivers here comment or have similar experiences?

Electric water pump. It will be audible if you listen closely after you turn off the ignition of a fully warmed up engine.

ok thank bro. Btw, inside the car after start can hear quite minimal krukk krukk noise around the aircon blower place, but even aircon no on also got such sound.. anyone know what is the problem? is it posible from the CVT?
*
Continuous kruk?

There will be a one-time kruk-kruk sound upon reaching ~20km/h. Heard that it is sound from ABS pump. But technically, i'm not sure why.

just do the german sausage. not noticeable.. and so far, even with the german sausage mod and HID, didnt have any issues claiming warranty

Hey, how much did you spend on HID?
Did you hide your ballast somewhere else? If not im sure service personal will see it right?
Share us some photo of it pls! thanks! rclxms.gif

yaya.. continuous one.. sound like water moving inside pipe sound, but i dont think the refrigerant sound to be so loud inside a car.. quite audile when idle, especially when the engine mounting changed, so less rattling and vibration sound, so alot of weird sound coming out lolz.

btw anyone did the engine mounting DIY improvement after change to new version mounting? i wanna see will it improve the NVH of the car further or not..

Then I'm not sure about continuous kruk sound.

Just slot in fuel hose into the mounting. I haven't tried because I'm lazy. Haha

Im using a proton preve CFE about 38k mileage and almost 3 years. Had many problems with the car, changed my seats full set twice, harness changed twice, steering also changed before cause 1 button spoil and dunno what they to do the ecu/tranmission/gearbox/clutch for the car mati engine.

But main problem is, the airbag sign is very often on, and ive already changed airbag sensor and airbad module and flushed ecu 2 to 3 times already. now recently see the airbag sign on again.

anyone with similar problem?

Don't think so it could be the water pump. The "hissing" sound is like gas/air leaking and only happens after a drive with the air-con switched ON. Anyway, yesterday I went to the workshop but it did not occur whilst I was there. The mechanic told me that he knew about this phenomenon and said that it is normal because of residual pressure in the air-con compressor. He said that if it's refrigerant leakage, my air-con will not be cold anymore and this makes sense. I have also checked around the hoses, pipes, connectors, couplings and joints of the air-con system and there is no sign of compressor oil stains on them. Will continue to monitor again.

My Preve Turbo will be 3 years old next month. I have changed the driver's seat once, and the 2nd seat change is still outstanding for more than 6 months now. Lodged a complaint early January 2015 and until now they have no stock for the seats. Just wrote in lately to complain.

Seems like your car have more problems than mine having changed the harness(what is this piece?) twice and steering wheel. Apart from the seats, I have only got the gear lever fixed. The silver plastic piece on the gear knob came out by itself.

Airbag sign lights, they only come up when the engine is started if I'm not mistaken. It will go off in 1 to 2 seconds. The airbag lights will not illuminate permanently on the screen.

Hi guys, if the car can unlock by remote but unable to start, is because battery drain out right?

Have you changed your battery? How long have you been driving your car. The mileage on my vehicle is less than yours at about 37,000 km though battery is still going strong. The car will be 3 years old by next month.

As a rule of thumb, maintenance free battery should be changed every 2 years.
