To own an EB you need a alot of patience
first few months need regularly go sc to claim warranty, if not livina will suit you the best. If livina comes with turbocharged and big space like exora bold i definitely choose grand livina

My eb problem
Oil control valve - no permanent solution yet
Right front lamp got water sip in - claimed at sc
Squeaky driver seat - claimed at sc
Gear knob not pointing straight - sc fixed it
Fuel lid hard to open - sc adjusted already

Thank God i dont have one way valve problem and other major prob, my eb already 9k km

I personally think if we remove the door visor it will reduce the wind noise
Because I have one satria neo at home, it the most basic one, so one day I went to accessories shop and get a pair of door visor. After I installed them I noticed wind noise is too loud, so I removed them and sell at mudah.my
Another case: Most conti car dont come with door visor to minimal the wind noise

The difference between the normal mode vs SAT mode is just that you can feel gear change on SAT. It mimic 6 speed auto gear, but the feel is not that good compare to real autobox.
I've tried, using SAT, FC increase. So its better to stay on normal mode. About the performance I think normal mode is better, the rpm always stay at your desired rpm, but in SAT it will drop when gear virtually change

Are you sure only at driver side? because my EB both side got wind noise, when I am at driver seat I can't hear the wind noise coming from the passenger side but I can hear the wind noise at the driver side. When someone else driving my EB I sit at passenger side and I can hear the windnoise at passenger side but not at driver side
I also already ask the SC to replace the door rubber but still the same, so i think door visor is the culprit. But without the door visor then EB less handsome so need to compromise

I think because of the cvt
My relative golf gti also the same, except longer

1. confirm one way valve problem, the cracking sound only appear when the valve dry

2. same like mine, driver seat only. I get it replaced at SC for free

1. My EB dont have this owv problem. according to other EB owner, it is free. Need to do appointment at sc first. they will check, if confirm got problem, they will fix it.

2. Replace the metal inside the seat. I went to proton mutiara damansara

After 5 months own this EB with 11000km done, the only problem is the oil control valve. When idling got a jerk like engine misfiring and cause the rpm shoot up 200rpm and then back to normal. Rattling sound start to appear already when hard acceleration from zero, but it's tolerateable. When you love something, you will ignore the flaws.

I love my EB Got power, space is a bonus

Prime cannot fold to flat. That is too sad, I wanted to get Prime also at first. Booked one, then one week after book changed my mind, get a premium instead because of several reason:
- 2nd row seat cannot fold like in premium
- I got six in my family, so when balik kampung I need space to put luggage. Prime will be no space as all the seat will be occupied. But premium can fold one seat at the 3rd row to put luggage

1. I never experience this before. But I experienced worse thing than you do, my EB randomly notify me that one of the door in not properly close while I driving. So it will continue beep until I open the door and close it back. But now no more already, maybe when new everything is tight so the door ajar sensor misread

2. Same, no choice. Any camera also when record in low lit area also will be very blur. Why? Because the camera will set the ISO and exposure to the highest which will results in many noise. Solution is to add on brighter reverse light that point to the ground

For me I dont mind if the fan spin or not after engine turn off, as long I see the temperature bar at the meter stay at normal, Im happy

One more thing I notice about my EB, not sure about you guys...everytime I drive without turn on the aircond, after I turn off the engine 100% confirm the fan will spin
