Yes, so it's the same for the flickerfield in my opinion, because there is no condition on the save (such as only for shooting...).

See, that's exactly what I was fearing. Unfortunately the venom/raider is a vehicle, and as such has to adhere to the rules for vehicles and terrain (page 57). A vehicle that rolls a 1 halts immediately and suffers an immobilised result. Which implies that there is never any kind of save involved so not sure the Venom/Raider should get one...
Page 14 has no bearing on this as it mentions 'wounds' and a vehicle can never be wounded? |

Yes, but if it was the case, then the invulnerable save would never be allowed since nowhere in the rulebook it says something about it.
That's the problem when GW add a new rule to a unit not anticipated in the rulebook (such as psyker vehicules) and not yet corrected with a FAQ.
But for me, as véhicule does not suffer wound, you have to replace "wound" with "damage" on the p°14. And since the effect of terrain is a damage (even if a fixed one), you get your save.
