Does anyone knows how to dismantle the left and right AC vent and AC knob plastic panel?
They are making noise very frequent each time on uneven road.
If I use my fingers to press on them, noise will reduced.
I am thinking of fixing it myself or does anyone have experience in fixing them in SC, if so, how do they fix that?

QUOTE(Maxwell6635 @ Aug 21 2017, 08:38 PM) Yup, they fixed it for me. It reduced a lot can be say closed to zero rattling sound but still got a bit when go through very rough road.  , Just tell them dashboard and ac panel rattling sound. That's great to hear. Do you have any idea how they fix them? Cause I would like to make sure they use your method to fix or if they do not have any idea on how to fix then I will just share out your way with them.

QUOTE(Maxwell6635 @ Aug 22 2017, 08:54 PM) The idea is need to take out the HU first, then after take out they able to see the screw inside the panel , then they able use screwdriver to tighten it. If they unable to do that ,  let me know I might can help u. I think by just tightening screws the rattling noise will still be making a return after some time. I remembered when I just collected the car, it was all right until a few weeks later. I am thinking of bringing my own car use cloth tape for them to tape down any possible rattling part in it. On a side note, occasionally there is a spring rattling noise inside HU area and door rattling noise. Both of them are not happening frequently so I am still able to tolerate until it became worsen then I will voice out to SC. But for AC panel and AC air vents, they are really annoying as it is always there to make noise. You have some contact with SC ppl? btw, I am from JB and would it be too far for you to reach out your help?

Decide to opt for it but read from previous post need to ask directly with SA to make sure he key in it in system. Is it true no black and white will give to confirm my option for 5 years free service? What need to check upon receive the car beside exterior look such as scratch? U may just go to any SC and request them to check from their system, else u can email proton or pm them in fb to check for u.

QUOTE(Maxwell6635 @ Aug 23 2017, 10:50 AM) Tightening screws so far I don't encounter the rattling sound from the AC Panel anymore, just from other place and I DIY for other place. So far reduce a lot the noise. Try voice out all noise let them fix it rather wait , because sooner u will not tolerate anymore because it will getting worse. Sorry not really have those contact with SC.  Oh I see, I can show u where u should tighten only then. Appreciate if you could show me where to tighten, I will DIY myself first if I could. Not sure if I am the only one have the feeling like Proton SC people is trying to brush off problems when you tell them. I have been to two SCs and I even wrote in to complaint one of their staff in a SC. For the coming service, I am going to try 3rd SC to see if they are better in solving problems.

QUOTE(gasing @ Oct 10 2017, 09:40 AM) Hi guys.. recently I am eyeing on new Persona. However, the proton showroom agent only manage to give me the rm1k loyalty discount and 1.5k or 5 years free service as usual. My question is I saw fellow forumer posted the contact of dealer from Selangor and the discount and free gift is really attractive. I am staying in JB so is quite a distance. Anyone know what is the difference buying from a local showroom or long distance SA such as from Selangor? Such as car plate number is Selangor? How to pick up the car etc and also any other matters to take note of? Thanks!! Hope to join this club soon  If you want good discount in JB showroom, I got a person for you. Check you pm.

QUOTE(skeletonboi @ Dec 17 2017, 11:31 AM) Hi, I wanna do some upgrade for my car. Planning to add stability and cornering improvement to my new persona but as I heard ur racing bar has no or little improvement on new persona. Stock bar is better than ur racing bar. Can someone clarify with this? I feel bumpy when I speeding at 160kmh, 140kmh is stable when driving alone. If I drive 120kmh with 4 passenger, I can feel little bumpy on rear side. Any adjustable absorber can recommend? And how is the setup for the absorber should be? I have lack knowledge on this. Installed UR front strut bar and rear anti roll bar. Drive under 100km/h and purposely corner hard few times before and after to test out. Only slight improvement on this car and only slightly stiffer feeling from driver side. If I don't tell you, you definitely cannot tell the different. My mum has driven it but didn't mention any better in stability. Maybe need to install more bars to feel the different.
