Already done 2nd service

it will slowly improving.

my odo is 250km, with 21kmph and 10.8l/100km

btw do not entirely trust that figure la. that's just for our guidance only.

best way is to reset the "trip" each time you fill up full tank petrol and see how many km it can go

3rd year and 2 months. smooth sailing.

recently have a problem of vibrate during acceleration.
not steering vibrate but as if the tyre spin cause the vibrate is just a moment. and then it gone.

I wonder is it the cvt belt loosen when accelerate.
4~5k rpm on S mode. around 70kmph ~ 120kmph there is a three times such occasion as if each ratio change vibrate once.

change to + - mode it is ok no such vibrate.

dunno how to explain the vibrate is almost same like when u brake and then there is a esc kick in vibrate kind of feeling.
*
Mine 450 mileage.

average 26kmph

average 9.7l/100km

no issues at all.

cvt noises not that loud as i thought

i hope this will continue even at 45k mileage

i am a very lucky and happy with the car and i cant wait for the 1000km service.

Praying that no petty and major issues at all.

Hi guys,

Finally, a complaint from me but not a big prob.

I noticed the steering is not balanced. I have to steer a bit to the left on a straight road constantly.

What is the cost if i do balancing and alignment at Proton Service Centre?

If i do that in normal shop (for better price of course) wud the warranty voided?

ANyone has experience? Thanks

Balancing RM 8 per wheel, alignment RM40+.

Better do it outside.

QUOTE(farghmee @ Jun 9 2015, 11:17 AM)
if i remember it correctly,
milage <1000km, balancing&alignment can be done for FREE at proton SC.
*
tq for the info bros

QUOTE(ChuanHong @ Jun 9 2015, 02:49 PM)
balancing rm5 per wheel. rm15~20 alignment.. (Price in penang mainland). differ from each shop..

Normally after balancing and alignment done, steering put straight, car might still go to left a bit.. it's normal.. mostly our road was design the slope to left a bit.. as long as not very serious toward to left will do.. a little bit left is ok.. if you let go the hand, the car drive to left significantly then go check align..
*
it's not like that.

for a straight road, the steering will go to the left but the car will go straight, i dont need to "force" the steering to the left

sorry if misundertood my earlier explanation

Just dropped by COSE this afternoon and managed to get the issue resolved. First off, all mineral oil, semi-synthetic oil and full-synthetic oil can be used on the Preve Turbo. (Mach 5, Syntium 800 can be used).

Secondly, the air-cond service is optional and not necessary.

Looks like I have been taken for a ride by the particular service advisor. Coincidentally he was not at the service when I visited. Told them I wanted a refund and they agreed to reimburse only the air-cond service (RM166+) but they could not reimburse the Synthium 1000 engine oil since it was poured into the engine, which was comprehensible. So all in all, paid RM80+ extra for the Synthium 1000 instead of Synthium 800 (Synthium 1000 costs RM200, Synthium 800 costs RM117)

Another service advisor lady who was processing my refund said that the costlier Synthium 1000 is better for the engine. Yeah, right. Didn't feel any difference between Synthium 800 and 1000 but anyway at least I have tried the Synthium 1000 once and it's the first and last time I'm going to use this engine oil on the Preve Turbo.

hi. i know that you posted this in february. I was looking for an answer like below (used search button):

1) Is syntium 800 enough
2) how much is the cost of the oil + other stuff

thank to your single post i managed to find the answers

thanks

i was expecting to pay around rm200-300. i guess i want to give syntium 800 a try. Looks like it's gonna be less than rm150

Sounds like the newer Preve may have more quality issues now compared to the older 2012/2013 Preve models? I have only rattling sound from the back seat of the car in which after few attempts of pulling down the seat and pushing it back again, the sound was gone. If it comes back again, I just repeat the same exercise. The sound at the back seat may be just a case of the seat not locked securely and the rattling sound comes up due to knocks and vibration when the car is in motion.

As for the rattling sound from front passenger door, if the source can be detected usually it can be resolved. Maybe some wires or other stuff hitting against the metal door panel. Just require a small adjustment.

Left side speaker louder than right side or other speakers or HU micro sim slot cannot detect sim card, this is more to electronic problem. Maybe the thing is faulty. Just claim under warranty and have the old HU replaced to a new unit.

i guess they were rushing. Orders keep coming but cant fullfill earlier due to issue with the GST. According to my SA, they stop production from 1st april til 15th.
