Hi everyone.  I own the New Perodua Myvi 1.5 AV (2018 batch but book in 2017). I received the car delivery on 23rd of January 2018. I've read some of the Problems highlighted on the earlier thread by some existing owners.

So far, the car is good except for some problems which I actually raised with the service centre which done the 1000km inspection.  One thing was that weird sound coming from the Toyota 1.5 Dual VVTI engine. The reply I got from them is that the situation is normal.  I don't know how far that is true but I accepted their explanation.  I was just sort of annoyed with the noise the engine emits. The car electronics are all working fine. Eventhough my car has clocked the mileage to over 1k+, I'm still cautious about revving my car's rpm above 2-2.5 or driving fast beyond 75-80+km/h. The car has some annoying clunking noise while going past uneven roads and bumps but the mechanic told me those are normal. I noticed there are also some little noise emitting from the door panel as I drive (That could be due to knocking on potholes and uneven roads).

My main complaint is the LED headlamps (Both sides).  This has been raised on the start of thread and I'll have to agree that I have the same problem on my new car.  Apparently,  no matter what sort of gear you engage in be it in P R N D,  with or without the air conditioning on,  the main reflector of the headlamp,  one column of it is showing signs of vibrating.  I told the mechanic to open the front hood as I suspect the vibration is caused by the engine (because the engine has quite a vibration as well).  They could not give me a good answer.  All they did was ensure me they will forward this to Perodua HQ as this could be a defect from the headlamp manufacturer or it's caused by the engine vibrate that sends the vibration to the headlamp. They recorded a video with the vibration.

I hope they will come up the result of the investigation soon and hopefully they can replace or rectify the headlamp issue.

All I can say is still.  It is a great car to drive!

any solution for this issue so far?

Just got my car yesterday, took it for a drive. Clocked about 90km in a day.

These are the irritating issues I found,
1. rattling sound on the dashboard (comes and goes).
2. shift lock sound when depressing the brake. this car has a mechanism that prevents you from shifting from P to other gears when car is turned on. to shift gears you need to press the brake to release the shift lock then only you are able to roll to let's say D. the moment i step on the brake there's this annoyingly loud click sound of the shift lock releasing.

anyone has this issue too?
