QUOTE(Ashhh @ May 4 2018, 07:18 PM) What's the advantage of getting the car autofoamed? Mind to share? is kind of sound proofing. many claim that i will help. in my opinion, i think it will wont have that effect as you would think. most of the noise come from CVT, no matter how well or much the sound insulation you put in, even with improved noise insulation it is still there. But you do feel very very huge effect when raining. You can start by adding more weather stripping, i ordered almost like 20meters from lazada and waited a week or so for almost RM80, i tried covered all places i can including hood and boot. if you see higher end cars, at the hood it has very specific seal just to isolate 1 noise source, adding DIY weather stripping might help but it will be no where close to factory design.

Additional benefit would be slightly improved handling as the chassis became stiffer due to the hollow areas being filled with foam. In my opinion, the benefit is not noticeable if your driving style is very docile. So, not worth it if this is what you aim for. Did the autofoam on my saga as an experiment. Won't be doing it on my wife's persona.

No, either you buy body kit or non. You can install it out side just spoiler only or lazada got sell too. I think the price is 168, is just 3m tape https://www.lazada.com.my/products/proton-p...s294952496.html. If you are getting the full kit, do it at Proton z the price isn't much different from outside.

RM310 is just too much, even petronas sell cheaper than that

Does the persona have a rev limiter? I tried to rev the engine in P with the handbrakes on and the rpm wouldn't go past 3k.

Persona 2016 battery model are ns60ls same with iriz, get a century ultramax around rm260, it will lasted more than 2 years if not extremely use.

Even went to dealer listed in century battery website and they fail to identify the correct battery for my car. They keep insist to install the din55 battery, so I just left.
