Standard exec 4, premium flagship 6

Hi fellow LYN future X50 owners!

I have just did a complete, indepth all you need to know video (in bahasa) regarding to x50 maintenance and future repairs.

In the video i highlighted this key points

- cost and parts specification that needs to be replaced during the interval service and estimation of full service cost for 5 years/100k

- compare some differences between the specification of parts between x50 and geely coolray

- cost for wear and tear item such as battery, tyres, timing belts and carbon cleaning

- most important!, Cost estimation for major parts and components (turbo, gearbox, sensors, etc2) which is not in the wear n tear list, which u might need to replace incase of an accident or if your warranty has finished or void, or even if you get fedup with the parts waiting time..

I hope this video will be very beneficial for upcoming new owners of this X50 and those who are still considering of getting one soon.

So far i cannot find the price for the engine mounting yet

is there anyone test drive the premium? Wondering will it be a very big difference in terms of the power compare with flagship since flagship is using TGDi engine.

Got another alternative to x50 if you don't want

Yaris facelift. From 71k to 90k i think

Yes,that the trade off if you need, much more reliable transmission, reliable engine,  and maybe more fun handling? Due to it being a hatchback. And also lower maintenance cost

Some buyers even pay extra money rm10-15k to SA for get the car soonest... haram tau,

proton said if the manufacturing date is 2020, then entitle to the exemption. even if register in Jan 2021. that's what i remember from the media preview.

I usually adjust it in a way I won't see my car at all to reduce the blind spot. This feels pretty bad but of course your view will differ depending on how you sit and your height.

I dont recommend anyone to try replacing the camera as some of ADAS features make use of them. If the cameras are not placed back at the precise angle, it'll affect the system accuracy. Unless outside vendors know how to recalibrate the system, it's better to just leave it as it is.
And for sure it'll void the warranty for the whole ADAS system at least.

Oh yes! If Proton decides to hike up the prices for 2020 bookings from that day many other brands will come with very sexy offers to make you cancel your booking and move over to them

If I would be Perodua I would give everyone RM 500 extra discount for the D55L who comes over to them with the receipt for the X50 booking

Anyway, I am still optimistic that Proton will keep the price for my booking and deliver the car mid 2021. If they not keep the price, I am not angry, I just take back my RM 500 and wait for the next car I fall in love with. I know that it will happen sooner or later

Someone did a calculation before this though. Let's say the SST is 2000 (probably will be more) and there's 10,000 undelivered booked car by the end of the year. That means Proton needs to fork out 20million just to absorb the SST. Will they do so? I highly doubt it.

turned down already. i want the features. and all orange doesn't look good. dual tone only then niceeee.

Yup those colors are solid. Metallic only jet grey and blue i think (for now). X50 side camera will turn on when u signal

Just got the car today, white flagship. Overall love the car very much. I think no need to mention the positive aspects about the car as everyone already knows. So i'll just list down some of the negatives/quality issues here:

1. 360 camera quality really sucks, just like my other 3rd gen Myvi.

2. Driver's side mirror angle adjustment too limited (issue already mentioned by someone in previous post).

3. Door assembly/fittings slightly not aligned. Same with some chrome trims.




I'm not complaining, just pointing out there's still room for improvement in terms of quality.

Some owners who took car advised to feedback to proton and let the SC do their job 1st, instead do any installation of door visor or rubber around the door.
