QUOTE(plumberly @ Jun 18 2016, 05:12 PM) Many thanks. Are you using 96650? Reliable? Does the black plastic cover on the wind screen gets in the way of the camera? Appreciate if you could take a photo of the location of the camera. Want to get a better idea of where and how to install the rear camera. Thanks. P/S Checked 96650, not the type I want to get. See below. This clicks onto the mirror. [attachmentid=6885848] Don't use this type 2 in 1 dvr. Not really powerful specs from.most I search previously. Try search G50, mini 0801, and common famous dvr is G1WH Mine unit is from free gift previously. Novatek 96620. Lousy one. But ok for daylight. So I will recommend people go for real better unit. Last time didn't do research and it's free. So it's ok. If this broken, I will get one real good one. This post has been edited by ChuanHong: Jun 18 2016, 06:27 PM Attached thumbnail(s)

recently just changed tyres from GT Radial to Michelin Primacy 3 ST.. huge difference between these 2.. very quiet now for my preve turbo 2014..
Also, i knew the root cause for the wind noise from rear left C pillar there.. it's C pillar small window there.. i put 2 play-doh type of sticky gam over there, problem solved.. no more wind noise.. paired with my new michelin tyres, the car is alive once again..

C pillar small window there.. try apply the kids play sticky things on top 2 corners.. problem will solved.. i plan to use UHU gam or normal tape and stick over there.. go SC during next service.. if not just waste my time.. http://s15.sinaimg.cn/middle/6a2bc363gc7eb01f612fe&690

QUOTE(joe_kopitiam @ Jun 28 2016, 12:57 PM) ya i suspected it's coming from there too. plasticine eh? macam a bit ugly but maybe i don't have to use so much.  sunday and today i just do experiment.. and i asked my colleagues listen on it.. once i applied on it, really no more noise.. appled from outside.. its quite ugly.. but temporary solution only.. i find the root cause so i can demo to SC and let them fix it.. last time no noise from there.. just recently 2 months..

QUOTE(joe_kopitiam @ Jun 28 2016, 01:07 PM) do share what the sc do to fix it yeah? i think i'll just try to diy for now.  previosuly i do have slightly wind noise over there.. i told them and ask them fix it, they had changed the rubber seal.. but seems like more worse.. more noisier.. so i read the forum and they said use play doh to identified which location.. i found is top 2 corner of Small window at C pillar there after i applied the same method to stuck the 2 corner with stickey things.. later i go home and plan to use tape and try see.. if can temporary solve it then i will report it back tonight.. at least we know what is the root cause so when go to SC, we demo and tell them the root cause so they cant defend ady.. last time they blame my tyres too.. now i changed tyres ady..

QUOTE(joe_kopitiam @ Jun 28 2016, 01:22 PM) using playdoh is cheap though. changing tyres is not. i'm thinking of using viking tyres the next time. heard it's not that pricey. yea.. i plan to try once for the michelin tyres.. so i spent rm396 each.. total 1584 including GST, alginment, balancing.. free tyre inflator as well.. it's really comfortable and quiet tyres.. really made difference between GT radial and michelin

QUOTE(:3mushy:3 @ Jun 28 2016, 03:56 PM) Try Bridgestone RE003, the compound is harder (higher mileage) and noise is not different than PS3. changed already.. i read some review about RE003 and people said it quite low mileage. i choose Primacy 3 ST instead of PS3 (Pilot Sport 3) due to i want comfortable and quiet cabin.. so i tried the Primacy 3 ST.. so far i used 2 days only.. quite satisfy with it.. even my parents and colleagues also said a lot quieter now..

QUOTE(:3mushy:3 @ Jun 28 2016, 08:03 PM) Mileage clocking is also affected by your driving style. Of course the general mass takes PS3 as the control benchmark, but I prefer RE003 more. Currently I'm using Kumho PS31 and surprisingly good for the current setup 215/45/17  Painted my R3 rims steel silver and it boosts the aesthetic  i'm normal user with long distance driving everyday.. i just need average grip and most importantly comfortable.. safety and quiet are my main concerns.

QUOTE(:3mushy:3 @ Jun 29 2016, 10:09 PM) Can show some pictures where you stick the tape? I believe something neater can be done if I know where to put it. About the tyre, wet grip should be the benchmark as it is where the conditions are really put to the test  Photo shown as attached. Try by your own, if really solved then go sc ask them apply silicone sealant on that parts. This post has been edited by ChuanHong: Jun 29 2016, 11:15 PM Attached thumbnail(s)

QUOTE(SportyHandling @ Jun 30 2016, 08:10 AM) Did you change all 4 tyres or just the 2 front tyres? I thought you just bought the Preve not too long ago. I presume any mid-range tyre will be quieter than the Champiro Bax 2, not to mention the Michelin Primacy 3ST which is touted as one of the best quiet tyres. i had changed all 4 tyres on my preve.. i bought preve in year 2014.. just 2 years marks cause i just paid my insurance recently..

QUOTE(SportyHandling @ Jun 30 2016, 08:31 AM) May I ask what is the mileage on your tyres? Mine is at about 55,000 km when I changed all 4 tyres. The front tyres are nearly bald but the rear tyres still have some good tread but I still changed them anyway. 45k.. 2 tyres were worn out already while another 2 still do have tread but not flat surface already.. it will cause the "wong wong wong" noise on the road..

QUOTE(SportyHandling @ Jun 30 2016, 08:58 AM) Okay thanks for the information. I presume the rear tyres are the ones that do not have a flat surface, and I presume it is uneven wear when you mentioned the surface is not flat. I usually rotate the tyres at about 15,000 km (only once) before I change all tyres. In this way the tyre wear is more uniform across all 4 tyres. Some people rotate the tyres 3 to 4 times at 10,000 km intervals before they change all tyres, but it would cost more money to do more rotation which in my opinion is not cost effective. Enjoy the new Michelin Primacy 3ST tyres. I am sure they are some of the quietest tyres you can find in the market. i done alignment and balancing, including rotation for every 15k km too.. but too bad, GT radial is uneven. Nvm, i will shorten the time to do tyres maintenance for these 4 Primacy 3ST, every 10k km.. Primacy 3ST really provide quiet and comfortable cabin with Preve.. but 100km/h is the best since our preve turbo do have loud engine/gearbox sounds if we drive above 100km/h.. 100km/h or below is the best right now.. really really super quiet.. satisfied with these 4 tyres although i paid nearly 1.6k for it.. RM396 each(including everything, GST, alignment, balancing, valve) + 1 free gift.. Tyres inflator. i think cheapest tyres for our preve 205/55R16 is like hankook v12.. i guess add up not more than RM250 each

QUOTE(namzaaniramadi @ Jul 4 2016, 02:26 PM) yeah. i got that noisy problem too. and some friends with preve premium said, it may be due to the noisy stock tyres. but why the wind noise came only from the left rear side kan? but i wonder, if the rubber seal is not sealed well, so why no water leak from the window pane during carwash?  Sc said tyres matter too. After 1 week of that, I changed all my tyres to Michelin primacy 3st which people called it as class leading quiet tyres. But the wind noise still there. Okay fine, cause I find sc twice ady. I debug by my own. Use sticky gam tape at corners and it's worked. Repeat the steps and identified both top corners are root cause. Recently I use uhu super glue and seal it. The intersection between rubber seal and window. Applied super glue over there mute the noises. Perfect match right now with my tyres. Drive 100km/h on highway is so comfortable Seriously, I also can't understand why apply glue over there can cure the noise. I checked both side but looks similar on the rubber sealant. But after I glued it, it's really worked for me. So I just don't care. As long as quiet for me. Previously don't have this noise. Until last 2 months, I fetch my colleagues go to ipoh and they told me. Normally I drive by my own and listening to music. Not realise on that.

QUOTE(winners8 @ Jul 5 2016, 09:14 AM) What happens if you want to wind the windows down during times when you don't use the air-con? For me, I will always wind the windows down and drive for a few km (to properly warm up the engine) before switching on the air-con during the first starting of the day. that one i glue it is C pillar small window.. not able to down the window one so it doesnt matter.. i can turn the normal windows down as usual d.. even sc also use sealant to apply on the rubber to the frame.. maybe design flaw of the frame or not 100% stick to the window frame.. 0.01% may cause the wind noise.. these wind noise that i mentioned will only notice significantly when we drive above 90km/h..
