That's why always try your best not to be a fan boy..
Be honest on your 'reviews' so you don't have to cover malu when ppl get into your car...

i always give honest review one

So far the 2017 batch is good. Door closing better than persona elegant.. Air-conditioning nob also like Mazda or Honda. Not like Gen 2 or Proton Iswara hatchback.
Everything is fine only HU need to change.. hahaha

Driving KL to PG. The sound proof is good compare those day

So you mean the previous HU version will have a new firmware? If the SC Larkin installed properly then the HU should function well and now we can play DVD while driving...Thanks for the update. Hope they fix yr HU.

Earlier I complaint my HU's clock always reset to 00:00 like everyday. So end up they flash new firmware which they claim the latest one. After the flash reverse camera stop working and 2 of my front go silent. Only DVD player working even in D gear. Not sure it is a bless or not.

That's why I went back and complaint. But after they checked they found the firmware was reset to previous one. They re do the flash but the result is the same. So that's why the send my HU to Penang. Hope my case will be solved.

11.oh one more.. paint job. My front bumper paint was peel out when received the car. Cost borne by SA nway.

wah.. my list quite long oso.. haih..

HU is one way to cut cost..one of the most expensive parts in our car

so many issues for new car! what is IP kit?

i am neutral leh
honest guy
lousy will say out one dont worry
i just told ppl that proton is improving, and I could see their efforts
but you know la, ppl like to take things literally, improving means improved so thing like this should not happen

IP kit is like cigarettes buts size, to pad some gap at your dashboard try to solve some ratling issue.

the issues I have are little not major in this good car.. the one bother me is QC. At factory as well as SC. But kudo to Proton pay a great deal not to have major flaw. Yes, too many small issue could be trouble some. Proton must to improve this in order to be a producer of reliable car.

want to change over myvi... neh..
But i hope for improvement of little issue.. I really do.

Haha not sure but I believe that perhaps a visit to Mr. DIY is best.

Interesting what you've done. I'm thinking of a front collision camera in case of accidents and noise insulation in the car. Wonder whether you've done any work like that.

just went for a test drive at proton coe.
really amazed by the car & the good driving skill of the SA

I read a lot of negativities in this column. Well my little Iris has been with me over a year now...
Small irritations like noise from dashboard.. For me, that's about it.
The fist oil change..I went full syn..7000 and I changed my tyres to Yokohama's AD08R.
These two combo really makes the car go... Handling of the Iris is just wonderful... For a fee f course.

shop from their website. google "carjoying". HU + its DVR Cam alone cost me about RM1.4k. Reach Malaysia kena custom tax another rm200. Sent to installation another rm100 or so
Worth the spend for me, its fully functional android, currently updated to almost vanilla marshmallow fw. Nougat incoming soon.

Yes I did installed together with same brand DVR camera. Its automated, HU-dependent type. Setting and live recording accessed through app in HU. Clean setup, as no cig-charging cable dangling to camera issue like any other standalone kind of car DVR/action cam.



Soundproofing ideally I'd love to have but not sure if its worth to throw 1k~2k cash just for 10~20% NVH drop only(?)

You not just went full synthetic EO, you use the best EO available in the market.

Interestingly after Sundays touge, someone pointed out that my reverse light was always on. When cars come nearby I can hear it start beeping. After restarting the engine, it was back to normal.

that kinda serious as i afraid it might related to wire harness. better get ur car check. later ecu kaput, damage will be greater.

That's a given. Most reason people come talk in forum, fb groups are to complain something, want to share their frustration, etc regardless what car model or brand out there. Since proton is more affordable choice for average malaysian the numbers of owner's activities surely higher.

Doesn't help when every journalist says it's a "do or die"/game changer/best ever made model from Proton and yet, still comes with so many common issues already linked to the brand..
