2 reasons, gdi and 3 cylinders configuration. Even my neighbor f10 5 series sound harsh when idle, almost diesel clutter sound like, thanks to GDI

plenty, same here FS grey still no news. 6mths already RM500 give to Proton, loan also approved since Oct.

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.

Wait, did you mean it's easy to do or it is NOT easy to do? I think what you did was sticking 3M tape at that corner right? Pretty nice thought there, I think I would try your approach. I have tried Aero Fins and they slightly reduced wind noise, but not much. Thank you for sharing.

Yes, if you can find from shoppee or lazada a small 4-6mm height door seal shape or DIY like my experiment, then you could it right at plastic house at car body (you will see it once opened you door).

With the seal, once you close the door, the seal should seal up the narrow gap (I will try show u picture later).

I managed to test a bit on yesterday night, not too fast around 80-9X km/h. Usually I may hear a sharp pitch wind noise, but yesterday didn't hear that but I now hear something else but can differentiate tires or wind noise as this is not as loud as before.
Still need to drive a bit to see the different.

Just for sharing, feel free to do what you want with your car, I'm no expert, just experiment my way. To be honest for my car, the noise is not serious to me. My previous owned cars are Peugeot 405, Honda and Myvi, thus for me X50 is already much better already

link ke aero fins?

macam mana dapat tau SA tu power atau tidak?

that is brilliant

never had one of these cars before, the more you know the better

loan only valid for 3 months.
Need to resubmit in ur case.
If bank not fussy they will just approved but most of the bank will ask for new 3 month payslip.

Finally got my chassis number for my citric orange premium after 6 months from booking 16/9.

How much would a decent tinting with >90% IRR cost me? Is coating necessary?

Thanks all.

Typical three cylinder sound. My family own a BMW X1 also sound the same. If anybody mock ur car's sound like old tractor, just know that they're peasant who never ride a conti

That's the sound of the direct injectors. Other variants of x50 are quieter.

Booked white Flagship on 17th sept...till now SA still don't know when will get mine. Only know there's 3 more ppl Infront of me waiting for the same colout and variant.

remote start will need proton link to be activated first?

itching wanna try that feature

Did they actually give u the chassis number or just SA said u get chassis number?

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.

The problem in color choice is waiting period. Paint shop does not do individual request! That's just not possible. Paintshop will bulk paint,meaning paint in batches.

However this should not take more than a couple of months unless your variant is not a popular choice. Flagship would not take this long.
