Just want to share a bit here. I'm currently driving a white 1.6SX with mileage about 9100km. Here are few problems I have with the car:

1. Rattling Dashboard - solved by inserting a sponge between the windscreen and the dashboard (as suggested here)
2. Sound at the rear tyre when passing a bump - sent to SC Selayang and they changed the absorber for me
3. Wind sound when driving more than 90km/hr - the foreman say the sound comes from the visor.  doh.gif

When I ask how does the visor cause that sound and how to solve it. I kept asking the staff serving me but he seems like don't know anything and say this is an accessory and it's not covered under the warranty. At the end I also don't want to ask him anymore and left with my car.  mad.gif

Anyone can advice me on this problem?

take out the visor and test la....

I have tried big d, small d, p rubbers on doors. Not really woking and it is a waste of money. Don't do it. But how to do rubber on dashboard?

I actually had a set installed by SA when I first got my car. The design is slim type and not much of gap between the window and visor. So at that time still new. Don't know that the visor is the cause of the noise. So I drove for over 2k km (?) before the adhesive started to peel off (SA did not stick properly from the start, design pun masalah). I saw, wife saw and we both bought a set each. I sold mine at the end of course. So that day to wash my car, I peeled the old set off. After washing, we rushed to some where without putting on the new (I insisted to put on before go out but wife insist other wise and she won). Wife and I noticed the wind noise reduced alot. So the visor never went on the window, but I am not selling it away biggrin.gif

Ours will need to touch the button with the key fob near it right? That one works the same, with only requiring the driver to touch the internal part of the door handle.

Dear All Sifu,
Do you all notice our forte doors can be opened by all passengers from inside without pushing the lock button even all doors are "locked" by itself or by the driver control switch. For those having children sitting behind, please ensure you put in children lock, otherwise it is quite dangerous.
*
only 2 doors at front can do that.
behinds cannot.

if yours all 4 doors can, pls go sc and chk.

*pls correct if i'm wrong.

memory capacity depends on memory card.

1. exhaust cone
2. stabilizer link bar
3. ac compressor
4. steering rack
report with them ur case first.
if they cannot fix it after warranty period, they are still liable for it, since problem occurs during warranty period and they failed to fix it.

i already replaced item 1, still got sound.
service advisor called me few days later and claimed that techinician from korea informed them it normal to have that sound, as it is not a problem at all. It will not cause any problem in the future.

already send an email to Naza to comfirm and request for assurance/pledge/guarantee letter regarding above claim.  brows.gif

sometime get this kind of service advisor also syok, can tembak bullets.  laugh.gif

if korean tech also said normal, no matter how i complain they will say normal la...
