My IS has a creaking sound from the driver's door. I need to wind down the window a weeeee bit to get rid of the noise, but as a result I get wind noise

Check with you guys.

 

Is it acceptable to have slight wind noise from the sunroof and those kind of plastic expansion/contraction sound coming from the rear doors?

 

If the noise is easily re-producible, just highlight it to Borneo. They will go test-drive with you to observe the symptom.

 

Then they will try to rectify, maybe by adding felt into the interior of the affected areas.

 

You don't need to suffer it yourself, you are paying big $ to service there, let them worry about finding and solving it.

Creaking sound from door could be due to the door seal, which goes away with lubrication according to BM lengkee.

 

Happened to my harrier.

For me, cos I took out my door panels to do soundproofing and install my ICE 9months after I got my car.

 

Although the sound was observed only a few months after that, still my car is not stock so I can only LLST.

I know where is the problem. This highlighted area is just being glued in and moves when i pressed in.  The sound comes about when there is movement in that area. The creak sound comes from the wooden panel.

Any over-trade promote or just the standard discount and freebies ?

They are having some CNY discount in addition to the standard overtrade discounts. But frankly I think it’s a pretty standard discount. They just call it different things at different times.

Able to share your transact price and the additional things you got (such as free servicing)?

Congrats. Nice choice there. Ur ride exactly same as mine ... LOL.

 

I was told Mar19 delivery when I booked during the prelaunch. Guess what, in no time I received the news from my SE the car will be Nov18 production and I collected the new ES end Dec18.

he meant march? typo?5mths is damn long! and to hold his trade in price

 

I wish it was a typo dude. ETD is May. Thus no trade in as dealer can't hold price for so long.

Driven 864.6km (see below) with last full tank so that make consumption 18km per litre. Not bad for a big car.

Mine is the full petrol version. Maximum I went was 580km and this was after 1st 1k servicing. For a 50L tank car with heavy body, not too bad IMO.
