I am driving a 2012 CFE/
1. Check your break pad, if it is still a-plenty, ask the SC give it a good blow with air gun. Still cant fix a new brake pad
2. This is normal. In very layman simple explanation CVT is going to "2nd gear", observe the RPM, it will drop like it is engaging to 2nd gear. You can replicate this using the paddle shifter masuk gear 1 accelerate then masuk gear 2. Accelerate from complete by selecting Gear 2 from your gear selector may eliminate this for a while before u need to shift to gear 3.
3. Normal. The mechanical rubber stuff inside the selector is still very new. It is even tighter if you are getting a new car.
4. Normal. Unless you REALLY know what you are doing, this one i advise you to leave it as it is. DIY may or may not solve this, it is a hit and miss thing. Dismantling the whole dashboard, when you install it back there will be a chance it will never be the same and even worst rattling. I let SC do my and it got worst. I refuse to try it anymore.
EXTRA* The following only applies if the car is serviced at SC all its life and the items below had still not being claimed.
TCU/ECU update which i believe must have been done(Recall item)
check the engine mounting, you deserve a new one from Proton if it is a 2012 model and are still using the old type. (Recall item)
The front driver and passenger seat can be claim.( if the seat fabric is furry from friction of your butt/tight getting in and out of car, the seat cushion is squashed out of the original shape, please claim a new one as you please )
Gear knob and handbrake lever (Recall item).
The cable harness of the radiator fan or some sort. (Recall item)
Bro! Thanks a lot! Those were helpful tips. Right now I have a problem on claiming that damn warranty cause the previous owner did not hand over his service booklet.
Well the dealer said the previous owner was a uncle.
Anyone have experience finding original Preve rims? How much they cost. I wonder if I can trade in mine.
