I got mine replaced recently. Now just waiting for my seat replacement after proving that it has noise. Might have to return for another time though after replacing the base since I believe that the backrest is also exhibiting a bit of the same noise. Protong doesn't want to replace the entire seat in one go, plus their supplier isn't producing enough seats at the moment. Besides this, I've gotten almost every issue I had with the car solved. I also got my driver door re-aligned to reduce the gap during the last visit, and I'll probably get them to look at my boot's gap when I return for the seat replacement.

Seems you too have the same problem as mine (Prevé).
But they didn't do anything (SC Jalan Mantin, Seremban).
May I know what they did and which SC?

Thanks.

Centre of Excellence. You don't have to bring it here though. Just tell the SC to adjust the door striker. I'm not sure who did mine though since I remember someone driving my car off to somewhere but not into the parking lot or out of CoE. Perhaps they brought it to the B&P section.

Edit: Driving off to somewhere with the door still miss aligned, and coming back with it fixed

Hi all Suprima drivers, I owned a Suprima car too. Anyone experienced when you accelerate, the sound come from the aircond part or dashboard sound? something like vibrating sound. What's the problme actually?

I also face rather excessive vibrations when accelerating a little bit harder after a stop or close to a stop especially up a hill. For now I take it as one of unfortunate things we have to accept for this car unless it's actually not supposed to be like this. Perhaps you could bring it to a service centre and ask them to look at the engine/transmission mounting for you.

Might be caused by the boot cover/board. There should be 2 to 4 rubber pieces that were pasted onto the boot cover/board from the factory. They are very poorly stuck on though due to the chosen surface, so perhaps they've dropped off somewhere. Don't know which idiot decided to stick the rubber pieces onto the board. If it doesn't sound like the boot cover/board rattling against the plastic surface it's on, perhaps try playing around with the folding rear seats.

Lately I notice especially when driving slow out of the car park E.g lightly pressing the brakes slowly slowing down to a stop n release brakes d cvt seems to get out of gear n rudely enters again. It drives smooth as normal. Funny thing is it's not all the time. Anyone experiencing it?

Man I really am annoyed with the driver seat leather I can see my butt imprints even in the morning. It's the leather stretched. It's quality issue. Now the front passenger seat is starting to show too. Anyone has same prob too?

Wanna ask whether Suprima intercooling system reliable for travel long distance. Assuming travel to Alor Setar then back to KL again, not racing speed... constant 110 km/hr

Intercooler = lowers the intake air temperature before it goes into the throttle body.

Suprima's cooling system should be reliable. If you're worried about the turbo, just leave the car idling with the air-cond set to the coldest setting (and wind the window down) for at least 2 to 3 minutes after travelling for an extended period of time. This keeps the oil circulating throughout the engine and turbo, and it'll keep the radiator fan running as well.

Look up EA Autoworks on Facebook and look in their Notes section. You'll see something about Clutch Adaptation as well.
