hi all, my 9 years old Preve start giving me alot of issues.
last night, i was doing a reverse to my car park and it mati engine straight away.

May i know whats the reason ? i have just change my auto oil last month.
*
my first thought when i read this is fuel pump.

in the 10 years i had my car, i change it twice already.

symtom usually feels like lack of power, sometimes its wan to die when cornering at round about and difficulty starting although battery is good.

1 day i wake up it jst died. another time died after had my lunch.

this is exactly what happened on my car, it always feel like engine dying, lack of power.

Do u know where can i change this fuel pump? and how much is it?
*
any shop can do it. i replace original one is about 600+ including labor charge. quite expensive i feel. but since this car dont have much of other expenses so its ok to me.

Hello guys, I have a 2012 preve manual transmission. Running fine 👍. I just wanted to know if I could remove the rev cut or the speed cut probably somehow? Is that possible. Thank you

Preve got speed limiter?

need some help from sifu here.
I found out my 10 years preve have 1 serious issue. this happened the 3rd time now in a year whereby the gear indicator lamp light on in the middle of driving! i found this is very serious issue which may cause accident anytime. anyone know if this is related to software issue or hardware (gearbox) issue?

I just stopped in the middle of the road with double signal, switch off and switch on my car and the car back to normal as it is.

maybe can try visit shop that got obd2 to see the error code. can tell more detail what is wrong with your gearbox

sorry, what is obd2?
*
diagnostic tool. That socket at the bottom of your steering rack. They have a tool to plug in and check error code. Some ppl even buy their own bluetooth obd2 scanner. But I think for regular ppl like us better just go and check at shop. But remember you need to do this asap. Coz if i recall correctly some ppl here share that those error code will clear after 20 times u press the start stop button..

It's like the closing of the locks do not match with the arming of alarm that I need to press twice. Sometimes they are in synch sometimes don't. Not sure if that is the "private" mode that is mentioned in first page but I haven't tried yet.
*
The private mode only affect unlocking behavior. Locking behavior should remain the same when locking in both mode. The alarm can be affected with signal interference sometimes. I experience this for a few weeks around my house. Then suddenly magical ok. Now I experience the same at 2 particular shop lot area. U need to be very near to arm the car.

I see. This is happening both for locking and unlocking. During locking, I can hear the door locks engage but no alarm arming. I need to press lock again to arm which is not what I got used to. I thought I might have pressed something on my remote which changed the configuration.
*
i not sure about u, but my 2012 preve when arm got no sound one. laugh.gif i only look at the light blink one time n the auto fold mirror fold in. sometimes all this weird behaviour can be caused by car battery going to kong soon. this is also one possibility.

Preve downhill engine braking sound is annoying one. Even when new it's loud.

for this engine noise and stupid decel engine noise, we asked Punch before, they say Proton purposely program the CVT that way, and they cannot help it

sometimes I just partial throttle and brake at the same time (God foot mode)

asked one soundproof shop, need lots of work to cut that noise, and even after that the result will only be so-so...
