Today I go to proton sc to get my preve ecu upgraded. To replace the reverse sensor and to find out that smell when i accelerate.

After ecu upgrade, car feel so much smoother and powerful. The reverse sensor have no stock. And they found out my exhaust system bocor, that's what cause the smell (maybe).

So if i want to change the exhaust and the sensor, they'll charge me..
Exhaust RM 611.xx
Sensor RM 92 .xxeach.
Total 804.

Is that price okay?

is your car is still under warranty ? if yes request nicely for FOC replacement, it is not your fault this sort of stuff happens.

to date i have never paid a sen on all parts of my car except for break pad, headlamp, ambi pur, and the service cost.

( 3 set engine mounting (average 1 set per year), one set rear seat, one pair front seat, cable harness together wit new fan, 1 set reverse sensor, 1 set complete new gearbox, gear knob and handbrake assembly)

next to come is the oil hose thing that is a big problem to all CFE owner which will be free.

And the rear right suspension which had seems like leaking oil that wont be free if my car is out of warranty.

cant remember how much year is my warranty left but i would love a new steering wheel (the buttons is not working properly once in a while, volume down button will register as previous button, mute button that double click when i only press once which means i didnt mute my music at all).

The item that needed replacement are all out of warranty my car almost 4years old. So have to pay. I'm ok with that.

So, the oil hose thing.. What problem it cause? The only problem i encounter to date:-

Front bonet sensor - replaced - free
Shifter plastic cover - replaced - free
Battery - replaced - rm 180
H7 projection bulb - free
Tyre continental cc5 - rm1850
Reverse sensor - will be replace - sc asked for rm92x2
Exhaust system - will be replace -sc asked for rm611

wow, so you are one of the first batch owner ? my preve chasis is around 12xxx.

the hose when burst, all engine oil leak and unable to drive the car. it is under a recall program if not wrong but will only replace for u if the hose show sign of cracking.

i am 3.5++ years in and so far so good.

Yea..first batch.. It was like it was launched 16 April, and i got my car on 31st May. It was a 2 days old showroom car, newly arrived in Miri Sarawak. Chassis number 10xx

Might ask sc to check the hose out on the next visit to replace the exhaust system.

But some SC say the oil cooler hose is not recall officially, claim only if broken. And dealer cant do it somemore.
Exhaust system, do it outside if not free. no need to change 1 set new.

Okay, after change system, do I need to remap ECU?

hi guys, I am not preve owner (I'm driving suprima) but I've heard that Preve's seats got some "sound" problem. May I know what's this sound issue about?

My car driver's seat also got "nyek nyek nyek" sounds when I am seat on it...
