To be honest, I actually have the same thought as you do but I am not willingly to fork out RM650 to prove my thought. tongue.gif

Thanks for the info. I've learned something new today.

Says the guy (me) who never read the manual 😂

LOL!

There' are more T&C in the warranty booklet which I didnt screenshot it. Just take 6-10 minutes to go through the book once so that you are clear with warranty instead of buta-buta trust those marketing catch phrase like 5 years warranty. biggrin.gif

I already know I blew my warranty for my suspension since i lowered it. whistling.gif wink.gif

Normally I read that the volume is always going up and down by it's own. Your case is the first I hear. Mind to tell us whether yours radio is single-din, double-din or touch screen?

How come? Isn't the warranty is 5 years? Did you change anything on your car?
Did you serviced the car at external workshop?

Nope everything original. The exhaust system only one year warranty.
QUOTE(tctham @ Apr 4 2018, 09:07 AM)
That's sad to know. What're the broken items?

The whole exhaust system. First the filter area in the middle of the car gave me loud noise everyone I slow down the car. Cost me rm350. Then after repair they told me the other part at the back got hole and need to pay rm2xx

QUOTE(scarxxx @ Apr 4 2018, 10:09 AM)
Totally understand how you feel. Been there and done that with Honda especially with the airbags. It is far more dangerous compare with my issue with my Persona (Wakanda Forever). Based on my understanding from you post, if the SC mentioned that the parts only cover for 1 year only limited to:

- Exhaust System
- Battery
Not everything is cover for 5 years. Referring back to the Warranty & Service Booklet below:

[attachmentid=9708180]

[attachmentid=9708181]

[attachmentid=9708182]

[attachmentid=9708183]

Yes the exhaust system. The problem is I never expect the whole system will have problem as soon as the warranty expires. I'm pretty sure there are some other parts will start to break after the warranty expire later in the future. I don't have confidence on the spare parts supply by proton anymore.

If I am in your position, I will give up hope on Proton SC on the exhaust replacement. Since the warranty already end, I might as well use the aftermarket product.

The center filter part when want to replace will includes the parts all the way from the near the engine to almost the back of the car. It is quite a long part.
The second part with the hole is on the muffle as told to me by the service advisor. I haven't look at the size and the exact location yet, so didn't change that part.
I always go to COSE since it's nearer to me.

Extra loud then u sacrifice the comfort liao. tongue.gif

Anyway, back to your issue, the center box u mean is the catalytic convertor? After the exhaust extractor should be the catalytic convertor. Based on your post, it seems like the replace the catalytic convertor and the piping till the muffler. I guess I will take a look again on my exhaust system when I install UR bars.

Same as mine but I have no such issue. Perhaps your head unit is faulty.
