Did you check the bracket that hold your tank? Also there're plenty of clips under the speaker board, I've sponge them.
Btw I'm having problem to solve the squeking noise when I turn my steering to left. Tie rod, absober mounting, lower arm changed but the noise still there. Any idea?
fuel tank bracket checked. clips under the speaker board not yet. currently away in kota kinabalu. will check it once am back in kl.Btw I'm having problem to solve the squeking noise when I turn my steering to left. Tie rod, absober mounting, lower arm changed but the noise still there. Any idea?
the problem only happened when turning your steering to left / steer the car to left?
any leak on absorber? i was using sapura proride abs before and it had a tendency to become 'squeaky' after it hardened.
did you check the steering bush and absorber link(dog bone, literally) as well? make sure to use the same type on left and right side. in some case, an uneven tire wear / type will bring out the problem but this is rare.
check your arb bushes too.
if the squeaking sound also happened when the car is stationary while steering the wheels to left, most probably 'carrefour syndrome' @ squeaking steering sound caused by the slightly mismatch steering hose installed by proton on earlier batch of waja 4g18p. changing the steering hose to correct ones settled the problem.

Anyone done soundproofing and/or autofoam? How much is it? If I can only afford to do only either one, which is better?
they are 2 different type. autofoam filled up the 'empty' slot inside the frame / chassis. this gives a more solid(increased car's handling and composed ride(no more 'empty can' feel) while filtering the noise that enters from affected area. full package could cost more than 1k.while conventional multi layer sound proofing material does not increased handling and no composed ride 'feel. its merely filter the sound from outside. cabin does become quieter thus offer a comfort journey.
over the years, i've had done a diy sound proofing on my waja(roof, doors, boot and floor area). total spending is dirt cheap. around 500 bucks only. but the time consumed over a year is quite tiring.
here is the result ; using the stock waja audio system, gsrt engine cruising at 110km/h, volume level maintain
at 9. before the diy soundproofing, the same cd was played at volume level 17.

mmm mine is 2003 model.... and i had it up to my neck with this noise.... it is so hard to comprehend that it is due to the return hose, i had to order the return hose, it is out of stock for now in proton part centre... waiting for it to be stocked up. when u changed it, how different were the old part and the new one? any difference in shape or anything like that?
the replacement ones is slightly stiffer. i didn't pay attention to the size thou.your steering bush is fine?
