HAha yes it is pretty sensitive! You'll get used to it, sadly you cannot deactivate it sad.gif Open the door and see for yourself! I still practise this method
Alignment out already? Time to do alignment + balancing

try to open the boot lining. open your boot and open the carpet covering it. the reverse sensor module is hidden inside there. just pull out the power cable i think its a 4 pin white connector. or  u can shoose to disconnect the sensor cables from the same box.
*
Oh gosh!

It cant be switched off rclxub.gif

I dont think pulling the plug (4pin connector like what laytiong said) would be wise thing to do cuz Im not the only driving the car, my cousin borrow my car quite frequent and she rely on the reverse sensor sometimes (u know lah..... lady driver) sweat.gif

i think the reverse sensor is great.. i cant drive the car without it..
not quite sure what you mean false alarm..
the faster the beep the closer the bumper.. till it a long continuous beep mean its close enough.. im sure you know this right?

So far I'm satisfied with the car except 1 thing; while taking corner, there is some noise on the stering. Need to check with proton!

How the hell they said its common?? Damn!  mad.gif  if like this whenever we take corners, have to listen to that krkkkkk! sound on steering like dumb!

I will take this matter once my car reach for it 1st service and ask them to fix it.

Mine is not krrkkk sound, more like squeaking sound like how heavencloud described. The sound is barely audible now, maybe my ears got used to it. unsure.gif laugh.gif

I think the Captor is around 1 thousand plus... some persona owner have install the pedal lock, it useful and not so expensive like captor.

Mine is brake lock, for auto tranny only. Unlike pedal lock or steering lock, brake lock is installed above the brake pedal, hence not visible at normal glance unless you peek underneath.

Pearl white, ~rm1.8k
Haze blue or other metallic ~rm1.8-2k...before price hike..can get around rm1.6k

If i have the option, I would not opt for respray since since PerSona age is less than 2years. Send to a reputable detailing shop, get it compound and renew the look, i am pretty sure it will bring back the showroom shine.

Aftermarket paint, depends on Sifu Skilss and material used. The solvent mix with paint, and clearcoat is typically cheap one...
Paint thickness is an issue too, you'll see some part has uneven thickness and not to mention Orange peel effect after respray...i have seen cars out of the paint workshop, send to detailing workshop to rectify again the paint job..

I know it would be costly, but RM2k is abit too sweat.gif
