Ur driving which spec? Both J and the rest differs.

Im a J, so far ok.  The only rattling sound coming from driver side engine bay whereby u can hear loose part jumping upon crossing sudden hump.

City does have better cabin comfort.

yea same here.. my fuel consumption quite high .. u use petronas or shell? what brand? i use petronas ron95 only can achieve somewhere around 9.6-9.7km/l ?

one important thing is my car almost one month liao... but my mileage still 600km+ ... if i wait till 1000km then service, will it void my warranty?

i see.. how u know city has a better cabin comfort?

Ya, using Petronas Ron95 as well.

Im currently at 2k+ mileage. The service booklet does indicated 1k for 1st service. Void what warranty? I dont get u.

Sit ine before, cabin noise is much lower. Over the last 1 week, i've visited soundproof expert twice to get the cabin noise sorted out, especially the rear hollow resonance and tyre traction noise. Now its much pleaseant driving exp.
*
how much u done for ur soundproof?

ur manual or auto?

coz the booklet state 1000km or 1 month whichever comes first... but mine 1 month still not 1000km... ...
meaning now after 1 month liao... so this will void warranty? becoz SA said must service in time like 1 month even though havent reach 1000km ?

Alot members here mentioned to let the engine runIn, and it shall gets better over time. Also, it depends on ur driving behaviour, and traffic condition. Mine is like 40% city, 60% highway.

Perhaps, u would like to highlight this bad FC to SC during the 1k service.
*
oh no wonder... mine 100% city driving =.=

mine is a J too.

Average is around 12+/L based on RM70 per pump. Getting around 400-420km range.
*
Yeah i think the AVG km/l shown on odometer is not accurate. I will observe and use my own calculation later

Theoritically, anything that is 'plug and play' wont void ur warranty, this is what the SC told me.

I wonder which bars u guys installed into your ride. Mind to share?
I heard it sourced from engine bay... Still figuring out the solution.

please update us when u found out how to solve it, Many Thanks!

the milo tin sound of door panel can be rectify by applying dampening. I think it cost around RM600+ for 4 doors, 3 layers. If better, get 5 layers for RM800+.

I didn't do it since my main concern was tyre noise and hollow resonance in the cabin; therefore only did rear boot and wheel arches.

I think no need to wait until 2nd service at 5k. I'm currently at 2.3k ODO, and plan to send in next week to rectify the lower arm knocking sound, loud hissing noise from steering upon turning, and the bloody loose brake pedal rod.

lets see how.
*
eager to wait for the updates... i think this week u can send straight away to update us when tightening lower arm and put some lubricant will really solve the problem or not..

pls do update us too which screw to tighten if possible and take pictures too... so that i can tell my sc do exact things..

if the rear connection is plug and play; and we could source for this faceplate; then i think its possible.
