it is better or worse ? Stick with 185 or 195/55/15?

More stability, if I can say. For me, I'd opt for 195.

Hi guys, want to ask if you guys has minor rattling sound near driver side door or b pillar? At first I thought my trunk punya item or the smart tag cause noise, but it seems like some light item is hitting the plastic inside the driver door. Anyone has this issue? I had the first batch persona and already installed iP kit.
*
I think i'm facing similar problem. Not sure whether the sounds come from steering/speedometer area or side door/b pillar. But one thing from sure, the noise comes from somewhere at the bottom. Nasib baik I only face it during 'hot' season in the car. Bila dah sejuk, automatic the noise will go away. blink.gif

When cruising High way or go over bump no sound 1. When going through fairly patched road (those road got small hump). Then the sound match the bump

Maybe you can record and share us the video/sound of the rattle? Wanna check whether it matched with my kind of rattle as well.

I got tired of the rattling noise I went ahead to fix it myself. I will upload the tutorial later. For now let me show you why persona is really not tin milo. That amount of noise foam is a lot. Is about 2cm thick.

Holy shit. How the heck did you get that out?! On another note, anyone knows how to open the cover for steering & speedometer? unsure.gif

It should be held by clips, gently wiggle all around see where it will pop out

Thanks bro! Will try to DIY this weekend. Wish me luck icon_idea.gif
To add on, maybe I'll try this DIY as suggested from the Iriz group : https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...post&p=80079240

The speedometer unit should be similar to Persona, right?

Hi geng. Anyone of you face problem/issue whereby there's a rattling noise coming out on the steering wheel part? It should be as similar to this issue from Proton Iriz's thread as follows:

8. Steering rattling noise. Caused by loose horn/airbag cover. Need to remove and apply cloth tape to make the cover fit snugly.

Based on experience, it'll take around 1-2 weeks. Better contact Cawangan Baik Pulih Kenderaan Proton : https://www.proton-edar.com.my/en/After%20S...20MENGECAT.aspx

Find the nearest one. Good luck! smile.gif

I notice in the cold morning the dashboard is more rattling sounds.... Damping kits had been installed... In the hot afternoon the sounds become less or sometimes not noticeable...

What kind of damping kits did you installed, bro?

Hi guys, I am in the midst of considering to get Persona as my daily car. Since this thread is too long, I apologize for not reading all of them.

May I know the rattling sound from the dashboard is a common issue among all of you?
*
Maybe half of the majority suffers the issue. But, the rattling sounds can be fixed, either DIY by yourself or send to SC.
Anyway, all the best and welcome onboard if you consider Persona soon! thumbsup.gif

Anyone went to Proton Edar Chan Sow Lin? I want to send my Persona for a fix on the dashboard rattle issue. Called them earlier, they only did the fixing specifically on Wednesday only, and have to leave my car for 2 days.

Or any other Proton Edar branch is with good service/reputation? There's one near to my workplace @ Proton Edar Seksyen 13, PJ; but not sure whether they can do the dashboard rattle fix with IP noise kit or not.

Anyone here install IP Kit? How much does it cost?

There is some “tik tik tik” sound whenever I go over some stretch of road which full of patches and on a hot weather. Still bearable with the sound but try to eliminate all of them la.

FOC, since it's under warranty.
You might need to leave your car, depending on SC. Some can do it in 1 day. Others might take up to 3 days, max.

Thanks! I just bought the dashboard rubber seal. If problem solve then I will skip it otherwise I will send in my car.

Any recommendation of SC to do this job?

Where are you staying? If anywhere near to KL/Cheras, try to book an appointment with Proton Chan Sow Lin.
Heard they are pro with fixing the dashboard rattle. I might send mine some when around next month.

Sending my car to SC Chan Sow Lin for the dashboard issue this morning. Cross-finger, hopefully it'll solve at least the major rattle.

Not to pour you cold water but the dashboard rattling at the left side still cant be solved even I send my car to HQ COSE. Their dashboard design is just that bad.

Agreed bro. I sent my car twice to dealer already, earliest last year and end of last year. After 1 week, the noise comes back.
This time around, just trying my luck with branch. Hopefully ada ong.

All. An update. Proton SC Chan Sow Lin unable to solve the dashboard rattle problem due to damage at the dashboard (which was previously done with Proton dealer @ Tropical Impact Sdn Bhd - Balakong/Cheras Selatan). Thus, i complaint again to Proton & cc all the branch manager for further rectification. The SA @ Chan Sow Lin told me that they need to claim a new set of dashboard to replace it back - and fix the IP kit to the dashboard. Sigh. I'm so disappointed at the work done by their staff (for dealer). Langsung tak jaga kualiti dan menjahanamkan lagi kereta customer vmad.gif mad.gif bangwall.gif

Holy sh*t...
So how now? Claim new dashboard and install the ipkit again?

what actually has been damage? Do CSL SC explain to you?
*
Yep, that's the rectification part. Dealer (Proton @ Tropical Impact) needs to claim from HQ, and branch (Chan Sow Lin) will pasang the dashboard later on.
That is due to dealer & branch having different structure of cost centre (which is a bit surprising for me to realise that after SA from Chan Sow Lin gave me a call and share the update).

The damage part is at the front portion of dashboard (facing windscreen), where the are two area mengelembung ke atas (like a hill already), as shared by Technical Team that came to CSL SC. Right now the case is being taken by Area Manager as well. Hopefully this issue can be solve within the next 1-2 weeks. I'm so upset already.

Thanks for the update. Looks like there Proton @ Tropical Impact is a big NO NO to go to. Anyway, don't be too upset as they still fix for you.. My rattling sound still there whenever i go over a very bad patch of road. Normal condition road is still fine though.
*
Yep, last year will be my last visit to them. Had enough of their treatment.
True that, luckily have a friend over at CSL SC. At least they can help to faciliate the process.

Anyhow, I won't get my hope up high after fitting in new dashboard later on. My friend's new Honda City face dashboard rattle issue as well, despite the car being only 3 months old. I guess CKD cars (assembled in Malaysia), majority will face those problems. Cheap parts used, perhaps?
