Hi guys. Before i change my fuel filter, i also had same issue. Hard to start engine. So try change fuel filter. Including labour not much. Maybe around rm50
*
did you notice anything black coming out from the old fuel filter?. if not.. its probably still in good condition.

then soon.. you will realize you still facing the same problem.

Sorry forgot to say thanks.

Yeah ot happens even before servicing. But my ac no signs of dying whatsoever. I can live witth it just that the engine jerky when compressor kicked in. I guess it got something to do with degrade performance of the engine. Maybe i should consider carbon cleaning? Perhaps
*
NO. not related to your carbon inside engine. probably the AC compressor clutch, or bearing, belt tensioner etc.

For those who have replaced the CVT damper of the Preve Turbo under the recall which is free of charge, have you changed the engine mounting as well? THe service centre recently informed about this CVT damper recall but mentioned that if they open the compartment to change the CVT damper and find the engine mounting to show cracks, they warned that the engine mounting will need to be replaced as well but the cost of this part at RM500 will not be free of charge.

THe service centre mentioned that in most cases >70% the car will show vibration after the CVT damper is replaced without the engine mounting replaced. IN other words, the engine mounting will need to be replaced together with the CVT damper to prevent the vibration.

Has anybody successfully replaced the CVT damper WITHOUT replacing the engine mounting and yet did not experience any vibration in the vehicle? I am hesitant to replace the CVT damper recall as I will be selling the car by end of this year, not wanting to waste anymore money on the car after spending close to RM3,000 this year alone for service and repair of worn-out parts.
*
just sell it off without replace the damper. the new owner if brillient will check for recall parts at sc after bought it over.

How is your car acceleration from standstill ? If its like sudden acceleration from standstill or even from reversing , then u need to change CVT damper and flywheel. Mine after changing is smoother and nicer to ride. Eventhough Preve absorber is harder and not comfortable for family use but on highway the power and handling is superb. Was thinking of selling but after CVT damper changing and later change engine mounting, i quite appreciate it.
*
actually the sudden acceleration, still have even after replaced the damper n flywheel. however, the jerkingness during the turttle crawling traffic has improved a lot compared to before.

Instead is gives a continuous long beep (alike an object is very close) but actually nothing is there

What could be the issue?

My parents got the 2019 preve. Nice car, but cant't believe it doesn't have reverse camera.

However the issue is the head unit kept resetting its date and time to 2011. Changed a new head unit since it's in warranty. Now it defaulted to 2019. Anybody else got this problem?
*
come.. swap your parent preve with mine 2014, no issue on HU resetting problem. hahaha.

i like the black quartz roof n black side mirror.. looks very tiger like on the road

I think

2018 model = with black side mirror and quartz black roof.

2019 Model  = with black side mirror but roof colour follow car body colour.
*
owh. yeah. seems correct. but i wonder why they drop the quartz black roof.. althought the website still showing premium model comes with black quartz roof.

Yeah that's true. When I took delivery of my 2019 model, I was surprised that the roof was not the same quartz black as in the advertising material.
Although I personally prefer the body-coloured roof.
Maybe because black quartz roof makes the car hotter?
*
oh ya hor.. that is true also. absorb heat.. but it look nicer with quartz black.

i saw at internet there is few ex stock new preve premium 2019.. all roof with car body color.. 2018 no more aldy stock.

Hi all,
Need some help here.

My proton preve car battery died and I can’t open my car door. From what I know the driver’s door handle has a small hole to press out a flop to manually unlock the door.

I tried but to no avail. Anybody have any idea to  open preve car door when the battery is dead ?
Thanks

mine century marathon. used for more than 2 years, still having a lot of juice left over during the first 2 week of MCO, today when try to crank it showing Low battery and with a delay turn off on the ESC self check icon indicate the juice has depleted much. so, i bring it out for some grocery shopping. and to family mart. and its almost fully charged now. can leave it till 29 April.

More rough and can feel every hole and bump on the road. btw i was using Hankook V12 tyre size at 215/45/17.
Maybe im old now so not really feel comfortable using this size anymore.
but handling and cornering is better with this size.
*
mine standard stock 16" can feel every hole, bump, tiny holes, small uneven road can feel. not on comfortable side if road condition is not good.

True, if really compare to Vios those our Preve is really no match on comfort. But handling good mah.
So if 16inch stock size already in that situation, Let imaging upgrade to 17 and thinner sidewall...

hnghhhhhhh. i use it to attack corner very well. unfortunately the comfortablity is bad.

Could you keep us updated? I have done mine last year during services but as I had left the car at SC for 4 days due to outstation, never gave it a second look but did notice on the invoice it said was done/sent to Shah Alam but the SC was in Alor Setar. It did include some gearbox related replacement but didn’t asked the agent much.
*
that is normal. all was done in that sc itself at alor setar, just that the invoice written cose/shah alam name on topic due to its recall campaign/warranty related stuff.

About this brake switch, I already know that the latest version is PW822263V3 (Version 3).  But when their staff was checking their system, she told me that for PREVE, it should be PW822263V2 (Version 2).  She said that on her computer record, PW822263V3 is for IRIS and PERSONA.  I asked her to reconfirm this with her mechanic, but she said that they will only recommend as according to what is stated on their computer record. 

She said that there is only 1 more piece in stock for PW822263V2 but several pieces more for PW822263V3.  In the end, I did not listen to her advise but I chose to buy the PW822263V3, which also cost about RM1.00+ more.  I have already tested the electrical connections (as compared to my current brake switch), length and size, and every thing is the same.  After installing it, the brake lights and the "P" gear position unlock operation all work as per normal. 

Why I decided to change the brake switch is because sometimes it won't release the gear from its "P" position.  During such times, I'll have to OFF the ignition and RESTART again to get it to release from "P" position, at times having to do this process more than twice.

wow.. so there is another new update for brake switch... .. i tried search at shopee and saw most of the post is having V3 brake switch now, earlier of this year i bought V2 brake switch (supplied by renault) for replacement and one for spare... so fast got new version aldy..
