Hello all,
Need to know if want to install dashcam on X50 Executive. What model and brand is advisable? and also if want to install tweeter speaker will it void warranty?
Appreciate all the advice.
Thanks

1. Mi A500 and any other range are good options in general.

2. Yes it will because you need to remove door panel to do that.
Unless some sifu told you they can remove without breaking the clipper/sticker then I don’t know bro

You are upmost welcome. Glade that able give u some helping hand. Its good to share info here and there especially what we had encounter.
Upon car ready for delivery, the story might not end there. For some, the nightmare just happen to continue on, just beware of it.

For me, i still have some minor defect yet to settle to this date.
Its a very very minor defect. Crack at the black plastic window holder which some members also kena.
Dealer had file the claim with proton but till today, no sound of it even they approve it as installation defect.
Anyway, I settle it myself with installing the door visor which cover the crack. Help to reduce some of the wind noise too, btw.

So, as u had read all the defects from here and there. ESPECIALLY THE FIRST PAGE. do make a list and check thoroughly.
If can, bring famili members together to inspect any defect exterior and interior.
Excitement might blind our eyes upon getting the new car, but not to the one who u bring along, hopefully.

Anyway, if u happen to miss the defect upon delivery and noticed it thereafter, u still can claim it afterward.
From other member, some dealer say up to 1st 5k service. Some say below 1k mileage.
Try check with ur dealer. Defect is not same as warranty.
But to be safe, inform the dealer straight and drive back for them to get evidence and claim as soon as possible.

This is why the need of inspection thoroughly upon delivery before u sign the paper. Settle it on the spot.
If not, potong stim need to drive back again some other day.

Agree. My black plastic window trim tol now not claimed yet because of the complicated MCO situation, and I have already done 2nd service for 10K mileage. It will probably become a lost cause for me. But I hope others won’t kena

I've heard of people who booked last year October/Nov still not getting their car. So you could be in for a long wait. If you're lucky, you might get to skip a few slots if someone cancels. But don't expect to get the car within 6 months.
As for family vehicle, can I ask how big is your family and what is their age? I personally have a baby that's 10 months and my height is 178cm. If my Chicco child seat is behind me, I have to move my seat in a slightly uncomfortable position. The boot can probably fit 1 big luggage and barely anything else after that. If you were to put a stroller in there you can maybe squeeze in another small hand carry luggage. Space is quite limited. For a small family, say 1 child I would say it's fine.. if you have 2 then it might be difficult to travel with.
Car is superb based on the fact that it only costs 103k. After adding on the power tailgate and tint you're looking at close to 110k on the road which is not too bad. Overall I'm satisfied with the car. However, try not to put too much expectations into the aftersales service.... it is still a Proton.

Find the right branch and right SA, you can get it within 2 months after submitting LOU given by bank.

At least I didn’t need to wait more than 1 month when X50 first launched

My suggestion is you flat down backseat, and sleep from bootray to backseat.

Yes haha, 'ycs' user provided the link to you.
I am around 6 feet tall, i can lie down comfortably, though my feet touches the front seat so perhaps you can incline front seat further.

Anyone know how to play spotify with plug in cable?
can't find spotify app in QDLink.. is Bluetooth the only way?

Hmm why do you want to plug in phone and play Spotify when you can do it Bluetooth wireless way ?

But yes, Bluetooth is the way for Spotify.
QDLink is if you want to play YouTube music video on Infotainment screen.

They need to accept reality that small displacement turbocharger engine fc is like that. It only good at certain driving

I’m not sure what’s the fuss about x50. I have been driving one since 2020 and the only issue I had was wind noise and nothing else.

These people are starting to becoming annoying so I stopped getting involved in Fb group and telegram.
Well of course FC is a trade off for awesome acceleration

Air circulation auto turn off?
X50 have two.
1. Hill Hold Control

The hill hold control (HHC) function allows the system to maintain the previous brake pressure (up to about 2 seconds) after the driver releases the service brake pedal when the vehicle starts on a slope, preventing the vehicle from sliding down.

2. Auto hold

Similar to HHC but can use anytime (slope or non slope). No time limit but if stop too long will activate EPB. To deactivate press accelerator.

I notice to activate auto hold have to press brake deeper. If just press lightly it wont activate. Not sure switching to N will deactivate auto hold. Hmm gonna try later.
*
Switching to N won’t deactivate Auto-Hold. In fact some have recommended to engage gear to N when Auto-Hold is On.

People been selling Proton GKUI crack at FB - able to launch Spotify, Netflix, YouTube etc for price of RM500.

Spend that money and use it at your own risk. You never know what hanky panky stuff they have put into. And IMO it ain’t worth rm500 when such crack is supposed to be free, affordable at least.

Actually I found the source a couple weeks ago already with the same exact script to sideload the apks but didn't think of LYN forum. Been slowly reversing it on my own too and managed to get a FM installed too haha, then found the GitHub and tried posting on FB, keep kena deleted.

I presume it's because admin and the seller got some agreement already la so I'm not surprised tbh. TG group redirect me to the same seller also, PH group also same so I figured there is something else going on behind the scenes already.

Anyway glad this is out, seller made 100k easily with the modded qdlink and now this lol

Some early tips:
- use nodpi
- CPU is arm64-v8a compatible so can use those files too
- several google components required for proper GPS usage, still some work needed I believe for proper AA/Waze support without using dongle/headunit reloaded
- EQ can try Dolby Atmos apks that don't need root
- I prefer VLC for other media playback
- plug into driver side USB
- install script deletes the folder after ES is installed so u can only run it once, after reboot still have issue u need to copy back the folder from the install zip back to the USB. This is because the HU is actively trying to run the script everytime a USB is loaded so the script will run in a loop and keep rebooting the HU.
- it's safe to run and is completely reversible

I actually questioned the Chinese FB group owner’s intention and he deleted the original post asking for price range. I told everyone in comment that it should not cost that much, in fact it should have been free in the first place. These money sucker just trying to gain from people when the reason for having a community is to help each other.

hmm..i am not trying to change EQ. since i got DSP.
but at the HU, custom EQ flat still outport slightly EQ-ed signal.
so i wanna use thirdparty music player to bypass it (if got other way also can)
I see, but dont worry. karma will come.
if karma real arrive please inform, I interesting to know what he/she get.

Exactly. Karma will come for sure. The Fb group owner and the seller (fake author trying to claim to be ‘creator’) abusing the purpose of a community group for their own gain.
