Just to share. Today I sent my FLX for servicing at SM Nusantara, Seberang Jaya. I've highlighted about problem of "tak tak tak" sound during braking that comes from rear brake. During servicing, the mechanic opened up the drum brake housing. I also checked internally together with the mechanic. He cleaned up internal parts using compressed air and I noticed he scrapped out the edge of the brake lining which looks like bulging out ( I think due braking, the brake lining tends to give away at the edge when having contact with the housing, and cause not even contact surface after some period of time, explain why first month no sound of this). I think this is the root cause for the tak tak tak sound, even the braking grip is there. Today I didn't hear any "tak tak tak" sound, several times play with the brake while driving.

p/s: If the cause is the brake lining, maybe there is quality/material issue with the brake lining, perhaps after this need to change with other brake lining ( but I believe there are other users without this problem )

U can try jalan kuala kangsar, the huge proton showroom (Proton SC just behind it). Look for SA name En Fairus. Last time I got additional RM500 discount when I check through online to compare dealer in KL ( but I not manage to get the Smart TAG and Touch n Go). In Penang, I found dealer that not give any discount at all (but depend on that month promotion I believed). BTW, FLX does come with tinting.
