So just done service at COSE, mine is batch 2013, not entitle to do CVT damper replacement according to them. Sad story and feel very suck to how Proton handling this kind of case.

This is 3rd time I asked SC about this. They all act this thing nvr exist... One of them is CoSE.
What can I do?

i got my damper replaced under the watever recall/improvement program
when i went to pickup my ride yesterday, i felt excessive vibration on my steering the moment i start my car.

so i turn off and went back in to SC and left my car for a few more days as i need to go outstation. the thing here is...

1. I knew there are some facing the same issue in this forum where the engine mounting needs to be replaced after the damper replacement. Any1 mind to explain why? SA failed to giv me a clear explanation on this
2. the damper+flywheel is a new design and weight is lighter compared to old 1. can weight difference cause severe vibration?
3. my ride is 5yrs+, i would assume engine mounting started to wear off, thus unable to absorb vibration from the engine due to difference in weight?

SA going to charge me RM39x.xx for engine mounting... T__T

in this case, how can we argue with them that they are the 1 causing the fault of engine mounting?
seems abit unfair for customer. i sent my car in last week with no steering vibration
went in to collect with very bad vibration

Proton FB replied my batch doesn't need to replace CVT Damper....April 2013

jealous ni~

If can prevent cvt kong early, this might worth so.
Mind to share your car's manufacturer year?

Driving 2012 CVT, was in rush this morning and forgot to turn off headlight.

Came back after 1 hour and noticed the LED light still on but headlight is off, only remember forgot to switch off. Worried about battery gone.

Luckily can start the car. Didn't aware of this auto headlight off, usually how long the light will off if forgot to switch off? Not turbo variant.

Looks like my 2019 car will be arriving soon. My first Turbo car. Looking to learn lots from you guys

Can, once I get the car. Most probably next week

My Preve CFE is having intermittent difficulty to start after parking for between 30 mins and 2 hours, ie: in warm condition.  It may need to crank up to 5 seconds or more and sometimes more than 1 cranking.  I used to have this problem once in a while since 2 years ago but it's getting more frequently lately.  Morning starts (when cold) are normal. 

My spark plugs are original since 4 years ago, but my present mileage is only about 19,000 km.  This morning, I had removed the Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor (BOSCH P/N: 0261230283) for cleaning although it doesn't seem to be dirty.  I'll continue to monitor the situation again.

Would appreciate if any brothers here had this problem before and can recommend some suggestions or suspected faults.

I tell you, many of those technicians in the PROTON SC are bull-shit.  Previously 1 SC had told me that the inability to shift the gear from "P" to "N" problem is caused by a weak battery.  They then used an auxiliary battery to connect in parallel to my battery and it had worked, which I would say is coincidental since this problem is intermittent.

I don't buy their reasoning because how can you tell me it's a battery problem when the vehicle had just been driven for more than 45 minutes and even a weak battery would still be able to hold the charge during this short interim period of shutting down the engine.  Finally, another SC then told me that it's due to the intermittent brake switch failure, which makes sense to me.  However, the brake lights were working normally each time.  Only upon dismantling the brake switch by myself, I then found out that it's a 4-terminal (wired) switch and therefore, 2 terminals will be for the brake lights whilst the other 2 terminals should be for the solenoid to release the gear from "P" to "N".

Don't see any Lotus handling logo anymore

Still less than 200km on the clock...will take some time to run it in properly

Hi, would appreciate if any Preve Turbo owners in JB who can recommend a knowledgeable and reliable workshop in JB?  Thanks in advance.

I would like to diagnose my (occasional) difficult to start problem.  I saw on the Prevoc Facebook that 1 owner also has this problem and went to the PROTON SC, and they "suspect" it could be the Turbo problem and will cost RM5k to replace.  I don't buy this reasoning because my car's mileage is only about 19,000 km, although it is 4½ years old.

Just last Friday, I went to change my battery at a neighborhood shop.  1 of their mechanics who is driving a Preve also encounters this problem.  I asked him what he does to it, but he said just leave it as it is since the car will still eventually get started after the 2nd or 3rd cranking.

My Preve 2019 4,000km mileage also got hard to start issue at least once a week (need 3-4 sec cracking only can start). I used the 3 way start method as well. Anyone know how to solve?
