Image from reverse camera on my EB start to become blurr. I have tried clean the lense but still the same. Look like it is from inside the camera itself. Anyone experience the same problem? Can claim warranty or not Car registered Mac 2012.

Just to share.
EB Elegent Brown, March 2012, mileage 35k now. Rear brake light module right side replace twice. Left side once. Front right headlight replace once. Reverse camera had to wait for two months for replacement.
Dash got squeking noise. Anyone had this kind of experience and way to solve it? Front driver and passenger seats also making noise.
DVD player keep losing it sound even after trying changing frequency. Do not bother with it at this time.
Other than that, power is great. Not sure how long the engine or the turbo component will last.
Just spend RM1.7k for goodyear tires and ori front and back brake pad. Thanks to 16inch rim.

QUOTE(flex3x @ Nov 21 2013, 01:41 PM) Is this kind of a "squeeking" noise that seems to come from the inside of the vehicle when turning the wheel to park? Nope..noise more like at the back of the steering wheel itself. sound like two plastic rubbing each other. Already take annual leave and book appointment at COSE next Friday. will post the finding.

QUOTE(zaidi @ Nov 28 2013, 05:24 PM) while breaking or just normal driving? maybe you just need to re-allign the tyres, otherwise check the brake's discs. Same problem before. after changing brake pad, tyres and alignment. now ok

Just to update, at COSE this morning. For rubbing noise at power steering they replace the power steering oil and put some grease also. not sure where. they said will take some time for the grease to work. grease supplied by supplier
When mentioned to service advisor, he acted like it is a common problem now and recommended the above service immediately.
Look like another typical problem. will post again once noise disappear, hopefully.
Why not just replace. maybe just use grease and let it be out of warranty so can charge later.

QUOTE(HarpArtist @ Dec 1 2013, 11:52 PM) 420 each. wallet empty now. car feels more stable now, certainly much quieter. maybe its my mental issue, but now i dare to drive normally in rain conditions...with the original GT, just felt scared that it would skid on water. am going to carry my harp (musical instrument) to penang next year for concert for the first time in this new car, so want max safety. unrelated to tires...i noticed that the R gear is sort of strange. sometimes it doesnt engage right, i need to shift the stick around, and also it seems underpowered? need to step quite a bit of gas when reversing uphill. i had to park on a steep bukit ytd and was having some difficulty...is this normal? i also experienced the same thing. Had to use the hand brake so that the car won't go downhill.

They put more grease. i said what the heck man. already put grease and sound still there. demand them to replace the steering rack. sales advisor said can but need to leave car for 3 working days. At this point, i do not care if they take more than 3 days. Go back home by commuter.. waste time and money. Too bad, overall EB is good but once again quality issue still there. There is still minor defect which i do care anymore to claim.
