Hi guys, from many of previous post knowing that many servicing at Senaxis.

I book a service with them using proton app on last week for this sat minor service but didint receives any call from them on the booking confirmation.
So on today i call them since they did not revert me on any confirmation and they told me to just walk in to service as long as arriving before 3pm.
Is this true? Because for my past 3 services at cose all requires booking and does not entertain walk in.

For senaxis, they are cool with walk-in customer also. so dont worry, just show up at the time slot u selected in the app.

Fuel Tank Cap rusty , front brake noise , dashboard noise , 1 week new car got this problems .
Fuel Tank already re-paint , but dashboard noise authorise SC said the reason is gear shift noise , but i don't think so , when noise appear , i press the plastic cover at bottom of steering , the noise gone . This is plastic part assembly problems , not solid , i don't know how to settle it .
Today , i found a " lalat " inside the tail lamp as below photo , unknown how it can found a way fly into the tail lamp .
Is the tail lamp get a " lubang " , design defect ?  rclxub.gif

hmm... my persona has exactly the same rattle problem like yours... when press the plastic cover at bottom of steering , the noise gone. The rattling noise sounds like the plastic to plastic gap are not tight, or no buffer between them.. so rattle when car move.

i DIY my own head unit and here it is. it looks flush to like OEM, total cost

Head unit: 189
HU cage: 63
socket adapter: 38
steel band to custom fit:RM5
other tools like tape, foam :RM20
New Front speaker Sony XB163E 6.5 inch: RM99.5
FM amplifier :20
reverse camera and other wires included with the HU.

total RM 435

I would need to dissemble the head unit again to fix the poor FM reception, if you guys want , i can do a detail guide on how to install HU including how to route the cables DIY without any special tools needed. Also i will be upgrading the stock bulb to C6(i hope this thing is legal).

Things that i have come across when dealing with HU is dont cheap out, i pasang a china brand although most of the function is reasonably fine, as expected the sound quality is less, also i face FM having a lot of interference which i need to add FM amplifier to clear the noise.  My new sony speakers are indeed better but is performing less given the cheapo head unit, but by all means is not bad either.

Does it worth the effort??? A big no, i spend almost a day on this digging and prying, especially as i go along the way discover new things i missing and i need to buy, first the cage, 2nd the socket adapter 3rd the FM amplifier. What i gain is the knowledge about my car and certainly next time if i were to change a new head unit(i think i would, i learnt the lesson of buying cheap stuff), i can do it myself. if you guys want to learn the DIY i will do a step by step pictured guide when i get my FM amplifier later.

Yes, step by step guide pls. tqvm

to all premium owner,

Have you experience problem with the push-start?
my car just one year old, and so far I expericed three times where the push start not functioning. Usually when u enter the car, the meter will lit on telling it is ready for start. But on these three occassional, my meter were completely dark, and pushing push-start button completely no response at all.

Had to open door, close door, lock and unclock to bring the car back to live.

Even if your feet not on brake, pushing push-start button will turn on the car electronic, just not start engine.

If never kena bang before then should be the rubber around the boot loose ady, just bring back to proton and tell them. If from elsewhere then they will find the source and seal it with silicon.

If behind kena banged before then, hard to pull back 100% but the makat should know how to fix, they will make hole somewhere u can't see to drain out water before leak into the boot.

Thanks. Get book a check up with SC now.

Just notice my car door lock no longer auto lock when speed above 20kmh. Pressing the lock button, central lock still functioning.

Is it cause by some accidental switch off of the function? or just plain parts failure?
