pressing the brake harder = tuk tuk tuk
slamming the brake due to emergency = no sound except screeching of tyre on floor (short distance) for emergency brake which is normal
i guess it is a design flaw which does not effect the performance. I will just highlight to the service centre during my first 1000 and won't expect any immediate replacement. it only happen maybe 1/100 times i brake

Same issue with me. Tomorrow morning will go to service center to understand what is this issue about.
I've checked with the SA and service center during my first 1k km services and they told me it's normal. But it's a flaw if you were to ask me since my cheap Myvi also don't produce such sound when I brake

Not sure if there's anything we can do about it other than just live with it.

for 1st service 1000km, do you stick with the semi-syn oil or upgrade to fully syn oil?
Stick with semi-syn oil for the first 1k km and perhaps will switch to fully syn oil for the next service.

But fully syn oil at SC is 5w-40, not suitable for our engine. Just wondering if semi syn is good enough
Any reason why it is not suitable? Semi syn is good enough if you ask me but it's not the best. Same goes to RON 95 and RON97 dilemma.
It'll also depend on the driving condition, surrounding weather and etc. For cars that operate in high temperature than standard engines, I do believe fully synthetic oil helps.
I'll just use fully synthetic for a peace of mind.
