ahhh so the lowest it will show is 1 month?

Okay now i'm confused.

Hmm, wanna ask your car head light flickering it happen often? I realise one thing in my car, the internal room lamp, it will flicker once in a while (something like the air-cond where the compressor cut-in sort of feeling).
Example you turn on the room lamp then after a while of it turning on, the light will get a little bit dimmer then back to its original brightness. Does it happen to you all too?
Just wondering cause other electric stuffs like headlamp or radio all no problems.

mine doesn't really flicker also. Shouldn't have said flicker. Wrong word used.

My experience was when i just got my car, then at night time, I was sitting in the car for around 30 mins to set up the radio (was reading the radio manual so yeah). So I turned on the room lamp, after quite some time, the lamp toned down in brightness for a while (slightly dimmer than before but still bright enough, so doesn't look like it's a sign of battery or wiring problems) then resumed back it's original brightness..

Don't know whether it's a flaw or a function of the room lamp.. Never really tested it again ever since.

If you wanna test it out, I suggest try doing it at night/dark place, as day time wont notice the difference.

Btw the plaque of the door stated the month>? I thought it only stated the year.

funnily enough, when i went out just now I checked the meter, it has gone from 1 month to 30 days on the display. Will check again next time to see if it reduces the days correctly.

I think it did. Can't really remember about that. But I think it did..

Yeah I know no.2 can DIY, I tried to DIY but can't cause it's right side of wiper hose. and the wiper motor is blocking the way for right side, cannot put hand in.

Oh wow, means mine will be after 11/11. Hmm, then hope they can finish fixing my car within the same day (I dont mind going early like 8am), cause I need to use the car.
When you called COE do you notify them any problems you have with your car for them to order parts? If can do that, then I will tell the person on the phone that I have problems with my odometer, so that they can get the parts ready when I go there for servicing and no need leave the car behind or come back again another day..

As for EO, I don't mind paying 20-30 bucks more every 6 months, as it gives me some sort of peace of mind using semi-syn oil..

alright thanks a lot. Will give them a call tomorrow morning and set an appointment.

and funnily enough, it's as if in classic Proton fashion (where things go haywire). Yesterday it showed me 30 days remaining, today it showed me back 1 month.

It's been 1 month and 1 week now since I got the car. and it doesn't seem to ever reduce lol.

congrats! welcome to the club.

Discovered any rattles yet?

what no more 7 years warranty for Iriz ady?

Wow cukurr I bought 1 month earlier

Oh and on warranty topics, I heard the extended warranty will get some sort of letter from Proton/Insurance? Is it true? and if so, have you guys received whatever it is?

I have no idea about that at all. What proof that we can keep/show that our car is under warranty for 7 years?

no need for that kinda attitude in this thread. Each owners have their own perspective. If you think it's not worth it, then good for you. It probably is not then.

But to people like me and yadea and many other 1.3 Exec owners, we felt that it is worth it. Sure you can add spoilers, bodykit, and paint your door handles and side mirrors for less than 4k.

But not everything can be done outside, AND it's not all about plastics, mind you.

You don't get:
-black painted exhaust, so your 1.3 Std after sometime the exhaust will have rust stains all over it.
-roof-grab handles. How you gonna hang your clothes/jackets after sending them for dry-cleaning? (inb4 u give me alternatives to dry cleaning )
-BOOT LAMP. Try taking/putting stuff into your boot at the dead of night, you will then appreciate not needing to turn your smartphone or torchlight on just to see what the hell you're doing..
-OH and while you're at it, without the boot lamp, make sure you don't scratch your rear body paint yeah since it's exposing bare metal and not covered by plastics
-rear wipers.
-drive side vanity mirrors. (well gotta make sure I look sharp and dapper before picking up the gf )
-follow me home lamp functionality.
-remote trunk release function (but this one is truly useless)
-2 dedicated built-in USB charging slots with the PROPER Ampere-capacity. 1 for smartphones, 1 for tablets.

All that CONVENIENCE readily provided in the car. No need send to 3rd party shops to do wiring or whatever, no worry and headaches about "Oh shit will this void my warranty with Proton later??"
PS: Adding rear wipers and boot lamp to your car WILL void your warranty.

and isn't that what I said? So what exactly are you not agreeing with then?

If you want to add wipers and boot lamp you will void your warranty? Well for USB and wipers, definitely void. But for boot lamp, im not sure but since u say u can do it without cutting then i'll take your word for it.

wow that sounds so bad your rattle.

My rattle not that hard-vibration kind of sound. Mine like something loose under the dashboard..

I just called COE to set appointment for 1k km service on Friday @10am..

Well, i'm just genuinely surprised.. Cause my call was picked up immediately and the person on the phone straight set appointment for me. I even asked if Friday itself I can't make it what should I do, and she just told me to notify them to cancel the appointment.

My call didn't even last 2 minutes lol. Now that's what I would call efficient. I was expecting to be on hold, or someone not answering the phone, etc (hahaha)

Oh and as I was typing this, SMS confirmation for my service appointment was sent..

yep as in this Friday. 2 days time.

I was shocked too.. I just asked the lady when can I send in my car, then she said this Friday can. Then i asked what time's the earliest, she said 10am.


Now i'm just worried I might not make it on Friday. Might have a meeting.
Hopefully I don't la, will only know by Thursday..

well need to see how.. It all depends if Friday morning I have meeting or not. If no meeting, I will be free the whole day so don't mind..

But if not free then have to reschedule.. Or maybe just send to do routine 1k service + fix back wiper hose, then other stuff like dashboard rattle and change odometer I come back another time..

Yeap, thats why it caught me by surprise. The whole process was very fast.

Anyway for 10k service what else you ask them to take a look/fix other than reverse sensors? and how come you need to leave your car behind?
