not really from proton. looks like 2nd party dealer to me.
but the rear door steel window bracket is a new product. definitely not from proton but heck it looks good, except quite heavy

my 2 front door metal bracket still going strong after 6 years. diy it and added some insulation material with the help of dunlop glue . no more 'tak' tak' sound. door closing sounds like vios trd

rojak waja can eat rojak city or not?

last time using oem proton which is apm, it last about 1 year. kyb which is slightly stiffer last about a year too. using apm performax abs and sport spring(30mm lower or so) which is stiffer than apm/kyb last more than 2 years with frequent karak / cameron trip.
btw, apm performax abs and sport spring cost as much as mines adjustable but at least it wasn't as stiff as adjustable. comfortable for daily ride and good for touge too.

some stock waja auto has the gear lock integrated, with small cover
you can try mudah website.

no more petrol smell from the exhaust but smellier fumes

check the 2 belt. timing belt(the longer one) and aircond belt (shorter one) and see if both are mitsuboshi. 2 different brand. if so, you had been conned.
am using mitsubishi timing, btw.

i kinda like this rims in white. poison...
yeah, how much it cost you?

it's about 1200 bucks? quite cheap.
am looking around for gun metal or original white of the same type.

guys, lets go for autofoam treatment

mxsteven@
i suggest you go for the slightly stiffer apm performax on the rear. try and proven. last longer than any other non-adjustable brand.
cost should be less than 300 bucks with new top and bottom rubber.

bro alif, still service your car at race?

where did the sound comes from?

how long it had been since you change your engine mounting? could be driver side engine mounting having a problem? wheeel bearing ok?

exactly! that's why we need to at least drive and feel the car itself to positively identified the source of the problem.

now my car also got sound. this afternoon bring out for a ride. suddenly there is a knocking sound coming from left side absorber.
more like plate and spring knocking each other when driving thorough uneven surface. there goes my poor new absorber
the workshop prolly' never tightened the nut properly

it was a new apm performax. now am worry about the top nut loosened and spoiled the absorber top.
car never drive through potholes thou. worst thing, it just went for alignment.

how long it was since the last time the air-con belt was change? changing the belt may solved the problem.
the belt's tension is fixed but the bearing are or something can be adjusted ; tight or loose.
same case with mine last time, after changing new air-con belt somewhere in kampar, there is a squeaking sound which the lousy workshop could not 'kow tim' he asked me to changed everything. told him no way!
back to kl, i ask my regular mechanic to adjust it and no more squeaking sound.

nah, your uncle prolly checked which side of the mounting was worn out the most, changed it and remain the good condition one. this explained why the vibration / excessive humming sound comes from one direction(the worn out mounting side). i suggest you change all 4 for better ride.
go for original proton mounting which cost less than 270 bucks. the mmc won't last long.
btw, engine mounting filter the excessive engine / chassis noise + vibration. worn out engine mounting caused and excessive dashboard vibration and humming sound goes to cabin, especially when you're revving the car. nice engine grunt, isn't it?
