Any place near PJ SS2 area can recommend to service brake caliper. I had service many time my rear brake still making noise just one side. Don't intend to change brake pad still thick. Complain many times at Proton SC only clean the brake pad. It only stay quiet for a short period of time than come back again the squeaky sound. The sound only happen at beginning use of the brake usually next day or park for long hours. I want to try service brake caliper see can solve problem.

Mine is same since the first day. I did complaint but nothing they can do cos normally they can't hear the sound after my car reach the SC. cry.gif

beware. need to get that brake to be check. mine one last time got metal friction sound from brake during traffic jem at very low speed.. (its intermittent, sometime got, sometime didnt have).

then after few months, the brake caliper decided to jem. luckly not completely jem, car still can move but produce smoke at the brake pad due to caliper jem.

so in the end replace new caliper at sc. now no more aldy the friction sound.

Do you have a picture of bulb sitting inside the headlamp? My RH headlamp seems to be shorter than LH after bulb changed.

Both OSRAM nightbreakers on either side burnt around the same time, lasted only 1 year.
Switched to regular lampu kuning because dont see the point of expensive bulbs anymore lol.

But now the new bulbs i think is set a bit high because the cut-off is like eye-level shocking.gif
Do you know how one adjusts the beam angle? Will take peekchar later

Seriously? My exactly same as you. I felt that the caliper wasn’t disengage properly. Looks like is a faulty. Where did you do the claim?

the sound 'is like there is some object stick on brake pad at one position which squeeze against rotor and produce sound when the rotor is spin on ground .. eeiikk.. eiik. the sound is slow at low speed, but when increase speed abit the sound also follows the car speed. "

mine no warranty. replaced it at cose rm38x something for the caliper. (RR)

Good for long term investment, just imagine I service the brake already RM60 labor. I'm trying a temporary solution by cleaning the brake using WD-40 brake cleaner about RM25. A lot of DIY effort sweat.gif opening the tyre and spraying it on brake disc and caliper near the brake pad clip. Had to be extra careful when DIY make sure block other tyre with brick to prevent unnecessary movement and gear in P. Put the opened tyre underneath the car just in case... Release handbrake if you want to turn the rear wheels. The rear disc is quite rusty and the caliper dirty. Spray them and wipe them with old cloth. So far so good no loud squeaking sound. There's a lot of servicing can be done with the caliper eg. clean brake pad clip, clean the brake pad, clean the caliper pin and even replace the caliper piston seal.

Dont let it get on the brake pad. That stuff is flammable and brake pads are porous.. its a fire hazard.. dont forget to relubricate the pistons, pins, and clips after u cleaned them.

actually if mine one piston jam, can go some shop that can service the caliper or the guide pin at cheaper price.

but as i dont have time for all this, so i replace whole caliper at SC (even cose hq need few days to order the item in as they didnt keep stock).

and now i have one pratice is to feel the heat on each caliper bracket after driving. to detect any abnormality on caliper (or slightly jam) and get it check before it get worse.

I have the rattling sound on the left door. Can't pinpoint where's the source of the sound. Looks like something loose but when apply pressure on the door no sound. Don't know what else to do no visible screw to tighten.

Yes you are right don't spray on the brake pad instead use sand paper to clean the pads. I didn't open the caliper, don't have the tools to open and grease to lubricate it.

Same here, when i apply pressure on the door the sound gone. weird doh.gif
I'm thinking maybe to do sound proofing or door and floor.

Maybe can reduce the rattling sound, but don't know will warranty void or not.
Any idea on this?

my car suffers from vibration on door panel due to CVT. if i put house keys in the door top pocket next to the window controls it will vibrate and its very irritating.

i've changed 1 set engine mounting under warranty and there is no difference before and after

however due to the mid bass speaker on the door, i found the plastic splashguard inside the door and the door wiring are vibrating according to bass beat

what i did was glue pieces of insulfex onto the existing fiber noise insulation pieces and it solved the problem

repeat on passenger side for maximum effect

it stops the plastic and wiring from vibrating against the metal

Not cheap doing insulfex unless DIY. Saw a lowyat forum providing insulfex at RM600 - 800 for 4 doors(3 layers).
