Finally I fixed the rattling dashboard sound.
Using the excessed rubber seal, managed to stuck the rubber into the space between the dashboard and the small side window.
Now cabin is silent

hi guys , just got my persona from tookar.
standard auto .

need some advise from you guys,
1. could i change the current crappy radio player for a better 1 without voiding the warranty. the sales person advise me not to thou.
2. during driving i could hear some air sucking sound from the front part, its like when u  suck air loudy (a bit hard to explain).
3. the rear reverse sensor seems to be a bit weird, sometimes it has a long beep even there is nothing behind.

not sure its faulty  =(

The radio keep have the hissing sound. Is this a known problem? It is as though the reception is poor but that is not possible as I am in an area with good reception

Should be covered atleast a year, the bulge at center or side?

It's at the side. Is it dangerous?

Bulge tire is of course dangerous... but I wasn't sure if side bulge is claimable thou... need check with Proton on this..

Or else might just upgrade to a better set of tire  tongue.gif

Did u hit on pot holes or something? I plan to change mine next week to Triplemax

pot holes are everywhere in Malaysia man. is it possible that tyre bulges can be caused by potholes? i thought it is more like manufacturing defect.

QUOTE(Maxwell6635 @ Aug 6 2017, 05:34 PM)
what tyre is that ? U could try to claim the from Manufacturer of tyre instead of Proton, but you could ask Proton help u do claim. But I rmb the warranty is if ur thread depth pattern still within some MM then only can claim.

silverstone tyre...i plan to head to proton service centre next week to enquire. if warranty doesn't cover then i'll probably go get the tyre changed in a tyre shop.

Mostly is because u hit pole holes , and just for FYI silverstone tyre is very soft that why always have this issues.

Ya, you could try and enquire if not get a better tyre.  biggrin.gif

just got my pregnant tyre changed. proton told me the tyre is mostly likely damaged due to pot hole as the bulge is at the side and this is not under warranty. if it is at the middle then warranty would have covered the damage.

i plan to change all 4 of the tyres after some time since my silverstone tyres are still fairly new...

apparently silverstone kruizer tyres do not have a good reputation lol
