hi guys. i remove my plastic deck cover in order to check where does the "tak tak tak" or tucking sound from rear boot come from.

After removing it, i drove it to see whether the sound gone or not. Surprisingly, the sound still there and i conclude the sound come from the metal part near the boot area (probably somewhere around the speaker) and bcoz this time no plastic deck, the sound is far more obvious.

it sound like metal parts are clashing each other. you know its metal if you hear it. it must have something to do with chasis or improper welding.

Then i cannot do anything but bear with the annoying sound, if plastic then i can put some foam or cloth.  very dissappoint how this can happen only after 14K km.

Anyone from proton can rectify this? looks like only cose can rectify this. normal sc wouldn't solve this i guess.

open up the rear bonnet and see inside the roof of the boot

there's 2 thin metal bar running from the left to the right

notice how its overlapping each other?

see if the 2 of it is making contact

and ya the rear third brake light is known issue,removed the 'tak tak' sound after i dampen the brake light mounting, the metal bar in the boot and also the rear deckboard

so yeah im not sure which part is responsible but its either 1 of the 3
