I think probably, seen sometime it sound only, especially running fast. Anyone experience this before, you must open your window off radio then u will hear some rattling sound. Just the problem the rattling sound are constant, regardless 80 or 60km/h. Gonna ask SC to check soon.

You got your car recently only right? So fast got rattling sound ad. My problem is even major than yours. My power steering fluid getting lower and lower day by day. Now the SC people advice me to come when it goes at the minimum line. And the only sound I heard so far is my steering wheel. When I turn too much when cornering got "kong" sound. I think that sound contributed to the power steering fluid lost. 1 more week for my car to turn 1 month old.

u mean after u turn to the max, got "kong" sound?
*
Kinda. When doing U-turns especially or almost turn my steering wheel to max got the sound "kong". I think that sound led to my power steering fluid to reduce everyday.

Just Less then 1 month the power steering oil is leaking? So fast, I check mine is a bit more the max line. For mine I think still a minor problem as you wont notice if you close window.
*
Yes, in just a matter of 2 weeks it dropped until the middle line between max line and min line. Now must wait until it really drop to minimum line then must send my car to SC to replace the rack like some member told me before.

FC Consider average for new car before the 1st service lah. Some more is auto. Car like Waja and Perdana FC even higher.

I hope so lo. I kinda shocked when I saw the bars dropping so fast. Maybe will improve after 1st service. Plus I control the throttle to maximum 3k rpm.

It is when reaching 60km/h. All the sudden power started to come and can accelerate 80km/h easily. That one is the final gear for automatic is it? biggrin.gif

Hi there. Want to ask...is it our air-con reduce the power/torque of the car? When the air-con kicks in...I can feel the car sudden slow down or feel no power. Must press more accelerator. No wonder our air-con so powerful.

Does anyone installed Auto-door lock function(Press brake to auto-lock) before? Is it that expensive RM200? Haven't install it yet but just now asked one shop they say is RM200. By the way, does Proton in Glenmarie provide these kind of service like to install auto door lock?

Sorry to ask you. Is it your steering oil always decline until minimum level? My one almost going to near minimum line when my car is cooled down. After warming up, the steering fluid rises until middle line. Was it suppose to be like that? And when it rises it's like boiling hot water. Got swirling the oil. Confused here. rclxub.gif

well, each time when I checked the oil level, it decreases.. (I check before start up the car.. so that means its cool down)
maybe is like what you said(rises when engine is turned on)..
but if the oil level keep on decreasing when you checked then theres definitely  something wrong with it..
I first checked it after 2 months received the car and its already at minimum line..  doh.gif
*
That's the same incident that I am facing. My car is almost 1 months ++ going to 2 months in 2 weeks time. Now it's around near to minimum level when it cools down. After start the car it raises to almost middle between max and min line. I haven't service my car yet coz my mileage is just only 400++KM. What did Proton replace your parts? The service person checked my car said no sign of leakage in every part of my engine. This is so weird. I went to my SC like 4-5 times because of this matter. =.=

when u get your car...is max or min?
and how many KM is your car already 1st??
and yes....if the car starts up....the steering fluid is like boiling one..this is normal
if the car is still new and it's min....better go SC check....might be leaking
*
My car can say is kinda new because I haven't even went for my 1st service which should be due by last 2 weeks. It's because my mileage is still only around 400++KM. Ohh ok..now I get it. Coz when I see my mom's Myvi the power steering fluid didn't even moved at all. But our Saga got like boiling water. Next 2 weeks my car is already 2 months. So by that time I should had went for my 1st service. I already went to my SC 4-5 times because I saw a decline in Power Steering fluid. But they found no sign of any leakage in my entire engine. Hope they can resolve this problem when I went for my 1st service.

did u check if it's in MAX or MIN when u get the car?
should be at max but some member say it's in MIN
so now assume it's min lah....u fill it to max now
see if it drops to min back in a short period.....if it does...it's leaking and u have prove of it..say u refill it and it falls to min within weeks
*
When I get the car 1st day, its sightly above maximum level. But just in matter of 1 week, it decline like below the maximum level 0.3 cm. Then after like almost 2 weeks it's like around in middle. So I went to SC there. They check for me but no leakage. Then they filled up the power steering fluid and place a mark there. They say go find them back if it is just minimum level. But after 2 weeks later it dropped to middle line again. Coz my mom a bit scare so go back SC again but they cannot do anything. Until now I don't want to go SC ad. Wait for my 1st service only go. That I can let them see the proof that it is around minimum level ad.

When they check I purposely eye on them checking every part of the engine. Can specifically tell me where is the steering rack located? Next time when go 1st service I better tell them where is the location so they can help me check properly. I think my SC don't want me to claim for new parts gua. Headache leh.

My SC had ordered the steering rack for me. Next Monday will go to my SC there and they will install the steering rack for me. Hope later my power steering fluid won't reduce until minimum level again. That's my only wish.
