Hey guys, sorry a little sesat off topic here. But I thought I'd post a solution for a rattling sound coming from the boot cover / hatchback door grey plastic cover. Since day 1 I've had a rattling sound from either the boot cover or the inside the hatchback door - but couldn't figure out what it was. Service centers were never able to fix it. The sound was off and on - sometimes very obvious, sometimes less so.

Anyway I thought it was the boot cover and tried placing pillows & weights on the boot cover, tried extra cushioning on those little rubber sticker pads under the boot cover, but the rattling was still there. But I think I've nailed it down now.

I think the answer for my case is - the irritating rattling is coming from cables located in between the grey plastic panel and hatchback door. Not all the cables are secured down, and are not cushioned with foam. So the cables (some are heavy and hard) keep knocking against the metal of the hatchback door and creates that rattling vibrating noise. Pic attached at bottom for reference.

I've used blue electrical tape to secure all moving parts down, and no more rattling noises!..... for a couple of days. It recently came back, so will try again with foam cushioning.

Hope this helps some folks out there make their cars just a little bit better.

hey guys i heard new suprima S coming out before raya next month, anyone heard the same news?

Rumor. Don't think small volume car will be updated soon

Didn't hear anything.

got this info from drb-hicom fair

Manage to claim condensor coil just 4 days before my warranty ends.

What is that?

What is that?

With passengers - 11-12L/100KM
Without passengers - 10-11L/100KM

Im getting 10.8 to 11l / 100km.
100% in jam town driving.
I rarely travel outstation on highways.

Aggressive pickup every time traffic lights turn green.

Just had my 40k KM service (4 years in September). Change those 3 gear oil (even though supposed to be 60k KM (3 years) since its already 4 years. Spark plugs as well. Well overdue in terms of time. All in all, cost of service came down to about RM 1.1k

Found out exhaust muffler got a hole at the curved end about 2" wide. Proton says it is not covered under warranty. Only engine and gearbox is covered in the 5 year warranty. Is this true? So I had to go to an exhaust shop and change the muffler for RM350 (stainless steel).

Also the rubber seal at the driver door crack (most probably due to seatbelt being latched there while I tried to shut the door. The SC said that it is not covered under warranty. All other parts are only covered 3 years. So I assume that is safe to change the HU now? Since only the engine and gearbox covered left.

HU is covered for only 1 year.. or 20,000km..

I see. Thanks
