QUOTE(SportyHandling @ Aug 19 2015, 09:37 AM) Although the volume of the CVT whine in the video is quite soft, I noticed from 0:10 to 0:13 there is an audible "wooooo" sound from the CVT which I do not experience when the car is cruising at low speed. I am not sure if it is normal but I suppose it would be good if you can ask them to check on this CVT whine when you send your car in for your next service. The loud "woo woo" sound in my car is different as it is during acceleration from standstill 0 to say 40km/h. The sound is very loud and it is "woo, woo, woo" in several repetitions, unlike your case where it is a single "woooooo" when the car is cruising at low speed albeit in low volume. i also noticed this woo woo sound..and from my observation its from the cooler fan.

Ben3003 then doesn't need to worry about the possibility of claiming for a new gearbox under warranty. This is just based on my observation, my Preve is 4 months now and this woo woo sound is the first I noticed whenever i turn on the engine, I opened the bonnett and noticed that when the cooler fan starts to run, this is where the woo woo sound start...im not sure if the woo woo sound is like woo-woo-woo where the "woo" is happening in fast sequence..my observation is wooooooooooo-wooooooooooo..the "woo" is very long....hope you get what I mean  once I have the time, I will try to capture in video

anyone experience power steering fluid leak? my car will turn 1 year old this April but last week started to notice some noise in front whenever I turn the steering wheel. It got worse until I check the hood and saw the level is way below minimum level. i do not pay attention on my parking area but when i check it, there's indeed a leak. i think the car is too young to have this type of issue.

my average FC is 14.5l/100 KM, average speed is 15km/hour as I just send my son to school using residential roads that I cannot speed up too much.
