QUOTE(mingwei1992 @ Oct 25 2017, 09:57 PM) Beside the headrest towards the door there is a plastic that protrude out (like car cigrste lighter). Pull it can already. When will hv the leaking ? Heavy rain? My front left and right doors has some leaking , just a bit, I suspect the door seal isn't the right anymoreDon't use it if you don't need it. It may get loose and cause ur car to have weird noise. Yea my car flooded twice at the same door First time SC for for me. They didn't renew everything just patch it up. 2nd time I went to a shop to renew the butyl tape. 20 bucks. No more leaking |

QUOTE(mingwei1992 @ Oct 25 2017, 10:36 PM) During heavy rain. Wow, you know how to remove the plastic door cover inside ? Got any video guide ?Mine happened at the front passenger door. I check by removing all the plastic myself leaving only the weather shield. Then I poor water at the window. Let it sip through the windows rubber. By then you should able to see the leaking spot. If it's due to butyl tape u can do yourself or go to car knocking shop to do |

QUOTE(mingwei1992 @ Oct 26 2017, 02:16 PM) There is just 4 screws to open if i remember correctly. Hi do u have photos of water leaking into ur car? Of different sizes so make sure u remember which screw is from where. After the removal of the screw proceed with the opening door plastic (behind black colour one) . Then u can pull out the whole panel already. After that u will need to disconnect the power window's switch. This might be a little tricky. i dint see any video just cabut only haha. I just kena again. the other way of checking would be, once ur alarm rang u will go and reset. when u lock back the door ur signal light will blink and it will give u sound. This sound will indicate where is the problem For example 4 blinks is the boot if not mistaken. Persona boot harder to close properly. The guard at my workplace always fail to close it properly. |

Went workshop and handed the engine top gasket sealer, RM90. Foreman say it's very common, maybe it will leak again in 2 years time. It's the design fault, even some Japanese cars hv this prob.
I also did another preventive measure, i request to change one of the radiator hose RM30. Proton's spare part is affordable la. |

QUOTE(mingwei1992 @ Mar 25 2018, 04:55 PM) I'm using syntium 3000 se (5w30) and normal 3000 (5w40). I tried 10w30 it's true , the engine noise is very noticeable. In fact in our car manual mentioned 10w40 for our car. Nowadays I use only 5w40 and 10w40.What I noticed is that the sound of engine if finer when using 40. 30 seems to be more 'powerful' though. Not much difference in fc. That's solely my opinion nontheless. Alot ppl say 40 is better for protong engine though. |

QUOTE(Effy92 @ Mar 25 2018, 09:00 PM) Foreman told me it's not a crucial problem as you still can drag it for some time, cuz it only leaks bit by bit. But I can't tahan cuz sometimes I can smell burnt plastic smell after long journey when I stopped the car and open the doors, it's actually the leaked engine oil burnt smell. |

I think there is a reason why in the car manual its stated there recommeded using 10w40. And I have tried before w30 I didnt like it, the engine is noisy when revving and feel harsh, doesnt make much difference in fuel savings too. I only go for w40 nowadays.
