QUOTE(ken_hidaibuki @ Oct 22 2017, 06:21 PM) Hi all masta here... Just planning to buy this car... Any advice for newbie like me... What shud expect or shud look for.. Any modification should be done to make it better... High fuel consumption, average NVH, potential gearbox turbo oil cooler hose and etc issue. MBO for extra power, extra sound deadening for engine and road noise. Door sound deadening and speaker/tweeter upgrade since the tweeters suck at high volume. Maybe head unit if you have cash for a properly good one

Average ride refinement. Yes, head unit is the radio/touchscreen Handling just change to better tyres like PS4. You won't need to install a few million stages worth of ultra racing bars just to do 80kmh or even 120kmh around a corner or bend. The original Continental tyres should be good enough though.

Long time never post at here. Want to ask I feel cvt whinning Sound is higher during cruising at 80-90kph, other speed just fine. How bout your guys?
And also during cruising 40-60kph, when I decelerate and gently press the throttle, you can feel the "tak" sound. Just wondering is I it normal? Or is the ABS modulator thingy?

Don't put so much hope on the HU, mine had sent for warranty. Planning to change it if the problem still persist.

Im quite satisfied with the power on my car but acceleration is slow.

To be honest, I dont want to claim this claim that either but when things fail, its not fun. The paint on the spoiler and side mirror started to have bubbles and the thin layer of clear coat just fall/flake off.

Hi guys.. Anyone have experience that the "same side" of car front lamp (low beam) always burnt? I just changed it at proton sc (H7/55W) and It's spoiled again...
The sc told me it might be due to wiring problem, (heard about wiring make me nervous already)... I google, and some say thay it's perhaps the "electric power level" issue.
Please advise me on this matter, thank you.

I never did, but I switched from original to high performance halogen to Osram HIDs within a year. I was told that the voltage regulation is poor for this car. Go ahead and try to get them to change whatever related wiring first before you consider switching to LED or HID
