I'm puzzled with this weird krok krok near my left front tyres.

Krok krok on uneven road,  not lower arm for sure

I've changed almost all suspension parts. Last part was brake caliper pin

What is this mystery sound? 

Brakepad loose? Or Is it coming from inside like glovebox rattles? I can't tell and I'm confused

Even my mechanic cannot figure out.

if all else fails , bring to Service Centre.

could be arm bushing, steering rack or even absorber issue. hard to guess, leave it for the experts to check nod.gif

Im not into performace much, but it does shows some improvement on dyno charts...im more interested in the voltage supplied not dropping whenever i turn on aircond etc...like right now, if i want to go abit faster, i usually turn off aircond to get some "power" 😂

Just a voltage stabalizer?

things to consider

NA vs Turbo
- gonna be a bit big difference in raw power specially with acceleration, but not much with top speed cruising.
- turbo gonna be faster but more maintenance with wear and tear parts.

Year Model
- don't get anything less than 2014 model, older models might be near for all parts to be replaced.

Service Record
- make sure the vehicle is complete with service record for 5 years within the warranty.
- bring a mechanic friend to make 72 point inspection, there are services like this offered online. Can do a bit of google can find easily.

As a regular user of my office car preve cfe, the fc kinda on high side. Cvt behaviour is weird, maybe due to clutch based, and most of time annoying especially on bumper to bumper situation.

Weirdly the suprima s cvt is better response/less jerky vs preve. This when i test drove my friend suprima vs my office preve cfe

Actually it's not something unexpected or weird, if you will. Proton did mentioned that they was working closely with Punch for quite sometime to improve the CVT for Suprima.

Hi guys, my preve suddenly the temperature rise to 6 bar, then aircon feel hot, but it is like awhile only then the temp drop back. I send workshop they say no issue with fan. Radiator water still have, so not sure wat is the problem. I tried flushing of the radiator coolant, now still have the problem but also awhile only. Not until overheat. Could it be the relay problem?

Fan motor might causing issue or weaker.. sometimes might not running which will cause temperature increases.

If genuine part will change entire fan + motor with bracket. Total about 6xx to 7xx.. my 7 years cars.. got this issue and recently have relay issue. Changed entire fusebox and it cause another 5xx to 6xx.. then starter motor can't start engine another 5xx..

ouch, mine is 9 yrs.. tat day i send to my notmal workshop they checked all okay. But they did not do electrical check, probably tat one need to go aircond service centre? If relay issue, will cause problem to the car temp increase? How about car thermostat? Cos i heard my dad say older car people tends to remove the thermostat terus which cause the car fan to owes turn on, but intro another issue, car engine too cold.

Another thing is, possibly the fan motor connection loose? Cos i wan see wat can i buy lol.. ori too exp..

Ohh okay.. can only change the fan motor? But when check the fan motor is very strong when it run. The fan motor no need to buy with fan assembly right? I saw shopee APM one around 180+

If you go back to proton and they will do inspection whether your fan motor is strong enough.. but genuine part is entire set of fan with bracket. 6 months warranty..

But want save cost then go external shop and change only motor. Usually no warranty but at least save half price..

Yes, change only on motor fan. The workshop will open all fan parts etc and removing the old motor from it. Then replace it with new motor. A 1-2 hours work.

Hi All, need help. I just took down my rear view mirror to fix it because the mirror part is loose and pointing down with vibration.

Now the red part wont fit properly (loose), anyone know what is wrong?
