Below are the issue which might help someone:-

1. Lock indicator can't be push. [Please proceed to SC to rectify this problem]
2. Gear console lighting does not appear / dark. Sometimes P and R only got lights. [Please proceed to SC to rectify this problem]
3. Hood light warning issue. [Do not attempt to fix it yourself, quickly bring it to the SC]
4. ESC indicator failed. [Proceed to SC and replace the panel.]
5. Car jerking while half way driving then engine cut off. Engine sign came out. [Send it to SC, it is rectified and solved already. Key control board issue]
6. Member tkaira reported issue with locking mechanism will alternate between lock/unlock by itself. Experience during driving sometimes the doors will lock and unlock at random times. [Rectify at SC, change driver door latch]
7. Some user reported their driver side windows can only auto down but not up. [Rectify at SC]
8. Some user report cold start engine issue like those of exora bold. [Rectify at SC]
9. Wind noise issue coming from C pillar at about 80-90km/h. [Proton acknowledge and is investigating] [A member here has found that the issue originate from the rubber at the small window. He put a playdoh on both upper corner of the small window and the noise disappear]
10. Rear boot can suddenly open by itself. [Rectify at SC]
11. Rear dashboard rattles
Solution: Dismantle the dashboard and stick some padding at the rear middle on the bottom side.


12. Very high FC before 1k or after 1k service about
Solution: Reset the FC reading, n drive normally. If ur a heavy footer, then don't bother asking about FC.

13. C pillar wind sound while cruising
Solution: from front left c-pillar after 110kmph-fixed by sc,using silicone over welding joint

14. Issues with fabric seats (stitching, thread coming out, sound while sitting)
Solution: Inform SC, usually problematic seats will be replaced. For fastest replacement, visit COE.

15. Left rear weird sound
Solution: solved by SC,loose nuts over suspension,dog bone & seat


Added on August 4, 2012, 7:59 pmi found ou the the CVT gear act very weird... if the car is going uphill more than 25degree. it will always stick below 2000rpm... and never go up the 2000rpm. at D mode, it always keep changing the gear 1 up and 1 down.

but if u switch to softronic... the rpm can go up more than 2000rpm and change gear using shiftronic. and never drop gear if u maintain.

that where the weird sound come from the engine when go uphill...

fulat how much did u spend on your soundproof mats? what are the brands and how good are they?
does it benefit a lot?
*
20-30% boost on the sound quality of my speaker(i change my speaker. not using the stock anymore). with the rubber sound proof i already reduce the outside noise. after add the soundproof mats. another 20-30% improve. less 10-20% tyres noise. engine might have a bit like 5% noise reduced.

now go over pot hole less noise too... thats my experience for now... i will condition to do the sound proofing from time to time until i am satisfy.. might not be as good as bimmer... but at least 80-90% similar.

yeah.. take about 1K enough for all 4 doors, tyres and rear can already. but advise u change the speaker also... the stocks speakers really sux big time...

dont say only proton only need sound proof. i saw a brand new honda civic also doing the sound proof there with me. and also 1 AMG as well.. tongue.gif

ps: oh ya bro fulat.. so what do u think bout the offer by my sa? should i wait till the coming cny or grab it now? notworthy.gif

seriously... i have sources said the price will get adjust later... how soon. i don know. but if u can get freebie and RM1k discount. its a good bargain.

but again... the PKR said they will cut the AP as soon as they in power. so i guess... for yours case... just wait till after election. maybe they really mean it. then u can get CFE rather IAMF+ cheap cheap. wahhaha

rubber seals around the door is cheap right?

what speakers would you recommend? and would that void any warranty?

rubber for sure cheaper... but 4 door sound proof is highly recommended.

speaker depand on yourself. test it before u buy. warranty void for speaker... no cable cutting.
