Last time I was quoted RM25k for 2012 CFE only 60k km by dealer. In the end no sell cause too cheap.

That was too low, the buyer was lowballing you definitely.

Seeing the current market price for 2012 Preve is around or lower than 35k. I think is just about right. The resale value for this car is not good to begin with.

Under full load and highway speed, does the ESC light light up?
Mine does when it's full load. If only one person, there are no light.

Any one experienced their led position light burnt?
This morning the whole strip did not light up on the right hand side. At first I suspect is fuse but after change a new fuse, it's still the same.

I presume LED is the DRL white lights, a long strip of white lights below the main yellow headlights (bulb). If yes, no, I have not experienced any burnt LED lights throughout the 4 year ownership. But it's a different story with the main headlights which had been replaced about 4 to 5 times. This was way back in the first few years though when the lights keep dying in a span 4 to 8 months ie. after changing to new bulb it will go kaput in 4 to 8 months time. However, this problem was resolved with some wiring work and the bulb of the headlights has been going strong for more than 1 year now without any issues.

Getting back to your question, if you experience frequent burned bulbs of the headlight or long strip of LED white lights of the DRL, chances are it may not be the bulb problem but other problem causing the burnt bulbs, either wiring problem or something else.

It's just the DRL light. My main concern is that once the LEDs burnt, I have to change the whole headlight.

preve is pretty solid, not much rust issues, power window motors may become weak but wont die. one of windows i need to keep lubricating it otherwise it will be very slow to go up

known issues are rocker cover gasket leakage after some time, (yes i kena)
some say low beam bulbs keep shorting out, (no i didnt kena)
HU which is shit (yes i agree)

I'm still driving my 5 yr old suprima which shares quite a lot of component with preve turbo and yes it has its small issues from time to time but its not really expensive fix

the rear arms and linkages are prone to fail as well.
