QUOTE(namzaaniramadi @ Dec 14 2015, 08:48 PM) Last week, my SC 10.7L/100km. After almost 1 hour in the car idle, (with engine running) the SC increase up to 10.9L/100km. You meant Fuel Consumption FC? SC normally referring to Service Center..Last 2 days, I tried to stay in the car (idle again), the SC increase to 11.2L/100km. Wow, turbo cfe really makan minyak even though in idle mode? My preve is reaching 650km. Just a baby. btw, why would you want to left the car engine running idle for 1 hour, and doing in daily basis? You sleep inside the car is it? All petrol car FC sure increase cause the engine running but speed staying at 0, so more fuel needed to run for 100km. contradict to petrol car, i found most people like to sleep inside their diesel-powered van (hiace, urvan), lorry. so i assume the diesel consume far lesser when engine running idle. |

QUOTE(Doggystyle @ Dec 14 2015, 07:59 PM) How is a bulk dyno TT arranged? And what is the typical dyno charge if go solo? Genuine curiosity. Might be able to get RM150-RM200 for 2-3 runs if you just want to get some readings. If you want to tune on the spot, you may need a lot more rounds, maybe about 10 runs.Want to measure what is the default power before I plunk in some stuff in the future too. Sometimes a car club organizes dyno day for the car club. With good deals, it may only cost around RM200 for 10 runs. If your car is stock, nothing to tune, then just pay for 3 runs and get the readings. |

Genuine curiosity. bulk usually in the rm60-100 ishWant to measure what is the default power before I plunk in some stuff in the future too. normal dyno pricing, 100-150 ish. and yes, that should be the way, before install, dyno and get a baseline. after install dyno again and compare results. not with butt and my car despite only change air filter and remap, i've dyno it for 4 times already lol |

Hello Preve Owners
I am newbie here. I want to ask for opinion. I am thinking to buy Preve. Using Viva makes me kinda skeptical about proton cars especially preve because my viva is so nice to me. But i need a pace of change and thinking that preve might the suitable choice when come to budget and probably maintenance. So, I got offer to take 2014 Preve with 8k discount. Is it ok buy a car which not able to be sold for almost 2 years? What about the components inside considering this car might be idle and the engine not started for almost 2 years? Do you guys have trouble with 2014 preve? Does it come with 6 airbags? This post has been edited by madmax89: Dec 15 2015, 07:01 AM |

Preve has A LOT of minor problems, but nothing significant on performance or parts reliability, only QC problems. |

Preve has A LOT of minor problems, but nothing significant on performance or parts reliability, only QC problems. Power window switch: when I auto up the window once it fully closes it reopen the window a bit. when i do it again it opens again. only the third-fourth time it closes properly. LED at odometer/day led light: when i lock my car sometimes the led light doesn't go off, when I unlock and lock again only the light turns off. my seat: it creaks and a bit not comfy the handbrake: sometimes after parking when i pull up the handbrake, it locks for a moment before suddenly unlocks and goes down. i have to pull up again and recheck to make sure it locks in place. any solution for these issues? |

QUOTE(madmax89 @ Dec 15 2015, 06:59 AM) Hello Preve Owners if you really want to compare maintenance and fc with your current viva, i'd say bad choice. especially for turbo version, the engine oil and those maintenance parts such as spark plug, might be 50-100% more expensive.I am newbie here.

Seems like Proton is leaving Punch for Jatco, so, the current Punch CVt can switch to Jatco if failure?

Would get some dyno when I made up my mind to screw the warranty and get the exhaust done (before and after). |
