noise is subjective and different to many

anyone went to their first service and have SC rectify this wind noise issue? saw many in fb comments but when asked hows the result no reply also.

its like if just rubber or seal not fit why still order the same batch, or is it because the complaints report not so much so continue to use the same design

just got x50 last week.

anyone encounter the whistling noise from a/c when on full blast during a hot afternoon?

the nvh of x50 is so much better compare to my accord.
but it is comparable to ma sis c250 sedan..

my biggest challenge right now, where is the fuel cap release lever? or we just need to press on the cap to release it?

For fuel cap, it is more convenience, to press the cap to release like most of European car. Unlike Japanese car, you always have to remember to pull the lever under the seat which could forgotten sometimes.

After all, you will be there to put in the petrol.

is it wind noise or tyre noise? they sound identical, both of my car i always thought wind contribute the noise when drive above 80km, but after i changed both car's tyre, the noise much lower.

goodyear efficientgrip performance..
i use it with my inspira before.. very quite + good grip comparable to michellin primacy line but way cheaper..

i'm using x50 also now, the problem is our tire size (18") is rare and still very hard to find..
hopefully the goodyear will be available when this UC6 already wear out later..

So far when I drive my usual road for last 2 days, doesn't hear any wind noise when above 70km/h.

Normally happen also depends on wind angle.

I think it is reducing coz I didn't hear it since stick the thick tape there.

I will try to update in another week, now still cant confirm.

It is not easy to do, perhaps u want to try it yourself.
Get those red 3M double-sided tape or thick and soft tape, then put it at corner at the seal@door side or the plastic housing.

If the theory is correct here, that corner seems light only have a soft touch on yhe rubber seal, thus not enough pressure on it and also the seal at that corner also seem to out of shape (not 'D'), maybe that the reason it happened.

Thanks for the update. Definitely will try this out. The wind noise quite significant at high speed.

i think in terms of creature comfort, uc6 is better than primacy 4.

haven’t tested on heavy rain but primacy is all rounder.

Interested in getting FS and was informed need to have loan approved and car plate number ready after booking, assuming waiting time is 6months, do I need to sign the loan agreement right after booking, or it can be weeks before the car arrive? How is the process?

Anyone know the Turbo boost pressure for X50?
And does the Eco/Normal/Sport mode changes the boost or just the throttle response and TCU?

As mentioned by another user before my post above, it follow your door lock, if locked mean fuel cap is locked.
To unlock the cap also mean you have to unlock your door in order to open it.

I was having Peugeot car, it is having the same approach, I did find it very convenience.

my x50 flagship sounds like a old tractor from the outside.. but when you sit inside the car no noise from the engine at all.

even toyota also cannot fully mask the engine sound.
