Best part is, cannot find a better material to replace the hose permanently. Maybe engine oil inside there running at 5000psi, no suitable material can sustain it.

Preve is the first Malaysian Conti in terms of maintenance , its a kindergarden for future contis owner of the real conti like BMW & Audi

used Preve CFE owns by office, together with old Waja CPS, both auto. TBH, waja gb even with old 4 gear drove much better than punch cvt, especially the start-stop situation and during full throttle, the CVT drowning sound kinda hard to accept. Both had FC poor to average vs another car with a similar range of HP/Torque.

Quality issue are same in both cars, Waja with power window things, some button on radio malfunction etc, good things are the HID Standard on cps, but still not bright enough, maybe H1 Bulbs size is not ok for the headlamp.

Preve on another hand had the radiator fan malfunction, triggered overheating alarm at a traffic light, 3 times cant switch off the engine (maybe the starter issues), numerous bulb burns for the halogen, and one-time cant switch off the main headlight after turn off the engine. These things make me wonder if Proton actually test it properly during the car design phase?

All the Preve I have come across in Grab car has a very bad wear on the fabric seats. Alot of bulu from worn fabric and broken auto gear knob. Not all Proton has this issue. At least not on my Inspira.
I hardly see any Suprima around.
For the looks, Preve is okay.  Suprima share the same front as Preve, but the rear is ugly as heck. Same problem like the Savvy in the past.

Iinm many owners claimed a new seat under warranty for the fabric bulu. Again why on earth the vendor was selected considering this quality.

the quality of the fabric is like really meh... same thing goes to saga blm/fl/even the current vvt

Low quality vendor easily approved by proton, another is the headlights vendor, AL Lighting which i saw since waja mitsubishi time yet until preve. Not just the bulb dont last long vs says perodua, the light output also poor. In case of Waja, only this car I remember using a H1 Bulb size at main headlamp low beam.

Best if proton only becomes a Geely model importers on our market and we can get the latest technology on automotive at our market with competitive price. Be it without geely, we keep having MaCampro engine until 2050, Punch suck CVT which they no ball to remove from their line. And we dont ever get chance having a GDI engine with DCT
