Already done that soundproof from day 1 together with tinting.

My problem is above 70km/h, depending on wind angle, sometimes have wind noise.
Not that serious at the moment coz didn't have chance to test it at highway.

Lol I’m still waiting for interstate travel restriction to lift up so I can head to KL SC to inspect my car and perform all this fixes.

Plus warranty claim 😂😢

Bro you need to book from power SA that get the job done. Like me I booked from SA that knows some one with the authority to prioritize chassis assignment.

This is different from cut Q because I had to sacrifice my fav color. They assign based on availability and customer’s preference.

macam mana dapat tau SA tu power atau tidak?

It’s about connection. You don’t randomly find SA from internet or Facebook ads post. You find from friend’s suggestion, your friend circle, and knowing their position in a particular dealer branch. For example, has this person archive any top sale’s award before ?
Is this SA a director in dealership ?

You do your homework as much as possible and you will bear the fruit of your research.

Expert sekalian, any local car accessories shop that you all have been using and recommend around PJ/damansara area?

Also anyone added coil spring buffer to their car?

Hey, read my first post. I’m the OP. At the end of my first post you will see a namecard, that’s the first bumble bee x50 owner’s shop.
Just say 8di recommended if they ever ask how you found out about them.

send to sc check, no issue. they confirm they did not do anything.
back to home, it feels normal.

no more issue.

but i am sure the other day the car was super slow, need to rev until 3k rpm and it started moving.

like my old wira many years ago.

Probably motherboard code error or plug malfunctioned, you basically lost boost. It may come back again from watching those YouTube videos about people restoring wrecked cars. Need to find the root cause

Tweaking the equalizer (if you know what you're doing) gives me good sound quality on my stock X50 Premium. Quite comparable to my PC speaker (Logitech Z625).

Bass is sufficient, not too thump-y nor too flat. Mids and highs are clean as well.

Maybe that's just me or maybe you guys have high audio expectations coming from conti cars, I don't know.
*
Bro try my suggestion, which I shared with X50 fb group.

1) use “ PROTON “ preset EQ on Proton GKUI
2) if you use Spotify or Apple Music or Joox, go to your settings and manually tune yourself. I recommend lowering Db power for high frequency range from 250hz to 14khz (- negative) and keep lower range 25hz to 120hz as default value

Hi all OP here. If you can wait better just wait, otherwise get other brand like Mazda/Perodua/Honda/Toyota.

And fuel consumption of mixed drive is average 280km per 40liter of Ron95.

I'm into my 7 months of waiting for the car. The worst thing is, the SA didn't bother to update me on the car status and when I asked certain matters, he didn't bother to reply.  This is the last Proton for me.
*
That’s why, when sale involved, buy the SA, not the car. Finding the right SA is very important. If you urgently need a new car, I advise you to look away and get Honda/Perodua instead

Some tips from my experience and from my SA.

1. Dealer never know how many allocation they will get from Proton.
2. Proton do allocation based on list which dealer has an order. For example, dealer A has 5, Dealer B has 3, Dealer C has 1, the end each of them get 1 allocation each. So order from small branch which don’t have much queue.
3. This might be the most annoying point. Most of the car is preinstalled with the powered tailgate from Proton. Therefore, if you wanna take the package, you can get the car earlier.

Just what i know from my SA, been an old customer with this SA already, bought at least 5cars from him. He managed to help me get a FS within 2weeks after loan agreement.
*
Actually yes, if I exclude the time waited for HP loan, it only takes 2-3 weeks to get chassis number and Proton link. After another week thats when I collected my car

I have to agree with you on this.  I walked into the Proton dealer showroom to look at X50 and this SA was present. I didn't choose him and never crossed my mind he is such an idiot and lazy guy.  It's too late to change after waiting for 7 months. I'm not urgent to get a new car as I have 2 other cars with me. However, this does not mean I can tolerate the long wait or worst, dealing with someone shouldn't be in the sales lines at all.

Sorry for your terrible experience bro. Hope you get your car soon. I’m just lucky I knew someone who has the power.

Yes, DSP is underneath the front passenger seat.
Then active subwoofer underneath driver seat.

Here is my settings, hope someone can provide the feedback if he/she tested on his DSP.
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «

Attached zip containing "20210512-MoreBass_CH6.S6Set" for Windows for Audxeon D1680 and "21May10c6Bass1.20" for CAR_DSP app on phone, this must be put inside \Root\CAR_DSP folder.
[attachmentid=10877498]

Your question for blue wire, it is the ACC/remote signal, on default you can leave as is it without connection.
For me, I use this ACC for the active subwoofer.
Refer to mryellow19 at below.
You're absolutely right, the audio signal and remote/ACC power coming from DSP.
*
So when taking to SC to service, just need to unplug ? Or no need ?

Because the SC may still ask and ack smart to say warranty void because this this installed

Haha...no idea.
Perhaps someone experienced with proton can share.

In my past experiences with perodua or honda, they don't kacau when sending your car to regular services.
I think it only kacau you when you wanted to claim something linking the parts you have touched.

Of coZ for claiming purpose, we should remove it, knowing Proton knowing for not setting standards for their dealer and the dealer can be sub par level to avoid any additional works or asking for profit by telling you claim not acceptable.

Bro what you said make sense. Thanks for sharing your experience !
Mind sharing which Subwoofer brand you bought and how much + installation ?

No, active subwoofer draw power direct from car battery.

Additionally another 12V ACC from the DSP cable to ON the subwoofer when the car ignited/started.

This basically means need to hot wire to battery/board right ?
Like if want to make dashcam on 24 hours also need to do that. Which means will void warranty…. That’s what my SA told me

If you are connecting to Infotainment system then it’s not possible. How do you “split” ? The controller is the infotainment

You should install RT app or EQ spectrum meter on you phone or Ipad to check the frequency with pink noise to see the frequency from each or front/back speakers. I think IPAD have much better mic.

The settings I gave has tune down abit of bass to allow the speakers to give better clarity and also leave some of the low freq to active subwoofer to do the work.
You can try adjust freq 50hz to 200 hz range to high to give your more bass. You can try with rear speakers first and the slow adjust for front too.
I tried before that you can get really good bass from this, but sacrifying high end freq. and abit of clarity.
The active subwoofer that I'm having is Blaupunkt GTR-130.
Got it at RM405 via shoppee.
https://shopee.com.my/product/41571200/1906...52-1620900152.9

Originally I was planning to DIY, but I don't have the right tool to pass the (+) cable from car battery thru the grommet at the  firewall, thus end up asking accessories shop and they charge me RM90 for labour works for the installation.
It is pulling a (+) directly from battery to active subwoofer. Then ACC/remote coming from PnP socket for DSP.
No wire cutting involved here, however question void warranty is very idiotic subjective matter for Proton.
At least I do have the option to remove if I needed.
*
Now you make my heart itchy 😂 so total DSP + Active Sub + installation I assume you spent around 1.3K ?

Below 1k.

Rm 400 DSP + RM 405 A.Sub + Rm 90 labour + Rm45 for 2M length of RCA cable from accessories shop.

Edited:
Most accessories shop Penang will charge rm800 - 1000 just for DSP and another rm800 - 1k for active shop.

I buy online and DIY installation +own tuning a fair bit thus price reduced a fair bit.

Thanks bro, can share where you bought your DSP ? I tried looking for DSP that costs 400 on Shopee but no luck

I was getting from this seller at Rm400 with the PnP cable. Which I also informed him to give specific cable for Proton X50.

https://shopee.com.my/product/230867846/561...2-1617371903.10

Unfortunately, I saw the price jackup to rm 500 + 72 (cable)

Edited:
I did a quick check also, another brand here offer the similar spec. at Rm300, you might want to consider.
https://shopee.com.my/product/53680745/5379...52-1620952313.9

Another model but same brand with slightly more features.
