Bro I had similar case when I sent my car for service last one month plus.  They talked and explained to me politely and told me that they will contact me for the update. Indeed, 2 weeks later they called me and said my refund was on the way and got it in another week later. I know I can make a scene and call Proton,  resist to make payment or go to another SC and try to find out elsewhere. But I just didn't. They are 3s or 4s dealer, there are rules and guides they have to follow and they wont simply do things as they like. (I also heard news that certain Proton dealer were being punished just for jumping queue on the car allocations).

Which is the most in demand colours and least in demand colours? Any idea?

I booked X50 Executive yesterday and my SA say can get reject colours or reject loan cases within 3 months.

Heads-up / sharing here for X50 users.

My X50 went for 1k/1month first service on last week.

Proton 3S center informed their Proton system is down and insisted you must paid first for 1st services.

To make it short, I have to argued my way out with the manager and insisted not to pay anything until their system is up for clarification. The solution now, if system is up and claim I not the user first 30,000 booking then I will have make my complaint to Proton HQ.

As I have an official receipt that I booked before they even announce 20k booking from 2 weeks after launching. Thus I'm very sure I'm one of the 20k customers who booked earlier.

I just did my 1000 km service last Saturday and it's free no question asked. Service advisor also mentioned there is 5 free labour charges. It was Jawira Balakong for those who are interested.

Highest demand would be Red, White and Grey. Lowest demand will be Silver and Orange. But of course, they may be different for different dealers

Different outlets different situation. Someone said red, but in the outlet I went to, nobody ordered red. Lots of order for jet grey. Another outlet I went to, lots of ppl ordered red. So it all depends on which outlet you went to.

Oh well, okay. My first choice is the blue. Red would be nice too but that’s not available for Executive variant.

No, that I'm disagreed with you here on my situation.

To me the problem is the dealer also cant commit to the system will settle and refund within 1-2 months. I already compromising, if they cant commit why should I.
After all, I been given excuses from day of booking that system error can't check booking, then also after that can't confirm chasis due system down. Lastly here system down on servicing records.

No that I'm dealing with different branch, they do have the physical records.

Thus I put it as my sharing for other users. If you are unlucky, you wont able to get refund due their stupid system upgrade.
If you are taking risks, this is up to you. Respected your decision.

Which is very strange anyway. For their own cost this Ocean Blue metallic is surely the most expensive variant. But even available for Standard. The red is quite light (but beautiful!) and non-metallic, so much cheaper, but only for Premium and Flagship. Proton logic cool2.gif

I think probably is same strategy copied from China, red colour for top specs to go in line with the sportiness.

Thanks for update, but didn't receive anything.

Since you are mentioning software update and I saw in FB just now, mentioned something about auto parking issues related sensors detecting to far.

Not sure this is same as the "recall" highlightes by u.
