that's exactly what my friend did for his car  laugh.gif as for me, dont want to close the door tight if i'm outside
speaking of which, now i remember after a few days getting my car, i got that steering sound too. Told the sc during 1st service, they sprayed wd40 to the joints, then the sound no more

lol.. my mum's blm had to claim new door sensor and rear door rubber, it took months despite i'm in kl whistling.gif
nope, not the 30 sec autolock feature. *Imagine* you just turn off the engine, then you come out, slam the door, then immediately locked. Not normal  rclxub.gif
Oh well, will be going for my 20k service later today  smile.gif

bro, i have the same probs too rgrdg d auto lock. Mine is much weird that it occurs on and off. when he gets d slam sickness, after i get into the car and slam d driver's door, it juz autolock and make me wonder the reasons. report to SC few times. They told me already check wire etc for all 4 doors.
And yet it still occurs. Update me if you manage to resolve that issue and share with us how they do it.
Thanks

information sharing..
I remember someone have asking the air-con is not cool and FC starting high for his persona. I got this experience before, 3 months car air-cool not cool really WTF.
Then I send the car to the air-con service shop (not proton SC lah)..luckily I know the tauke and he told me this is a small problem..not a air-con problem is the filter dirty only with many dust in the filter.
He teach me how to take out it and wash it with water. After that install back it. Wah…total change just turn a bit the air-con then fell cool already and FC back to normal RM0.15-RM0.175 per km….
The filter is in front passenger sit below the dashboard . You all can DIY it…but carefull when put in back (60 degree put in not 90 degree) hope you can understand it..90 degree you are cannot slot it the filter....

just got my car back after replacing the IAFM. Smooth now... no more knocking sound from it.

Gathered that the sound comes from a valve activated mechanism located at the bottom portion of the manifold is not properly manufactured. Some could be rectified by taking it apart and modifying it and some may require for replacement.

I am going back to the SC later this noon to have my RHF wheel knocking noise rectified. I didnt get it done this morning as the SA didn't exactly know what i was referring to and was in a rush to go back to office.

I gathered that the noise generated while turning on uneven road was due to a steering hose / valve or some sort. SC gonna call me later to confirm the part availability.

To update on the findings later on.
