QUOTE(Revoz @ Oct 27 2020, 12:21 PM) U can change ur engine oil 5k km, 7.5k km, or 10k km up to u if u using good full syn engine oil, but.....does oil filter last til 10k? Long ago it is recommended oil filter be change every 5k km. Unless u using high quality oil filter, but in our market mostly just a normally good filter. See wats inside oil filter.  Get mobil 1 extended performance - 20k miles = 32k km

QUOTE(yhtan @ Oct 27 2020, 06:46 PM) difference of 0.6litre is quite a lot. My main concern is the transmission oil, even some of my friend who own VW/Audi tend to change their transmission oil at 30k (Half of 60k which recommend by SC) This type much better? Not necessarily, I like old can type since the antidrain valve is inside the filter unlike those type, plus the enclosing is plastic.

QUOTE(Boy96 @ Nov 2 2020, 02:02 PM) Update: Proton has made the price of timing belt available on their website  Also, I made a video discussing about the maintenance of the x50 and other major costs that you will need to know if you are out of warranty such as the turbocharger, 7dct gearbox components, carbon buildup, led headlights and taillights, all sorts of sensors and pump and etc2. Just the belt? tensioner/idler pulley/water pump no need issit?

QUOTE(Boy96 @ Nov 2 2020, 03:06 PM) According to them no need, or maybe they put in together with the timing belt.. GG, and they played with the maintenance schedule by placing the timing belt at 120k km rather than 100k to lower the perceived costs

QUOTE(THE CLASS OF 13 @ Nov 2 2020, 03:22 PM) the truth is I think need to change just like what u said to they just want lower the perceived costs. just like preve and other proton cars, upon reach 100k km after timing belt change mostly will need to change the water pump and tensioner bearing, cos this two parts is wear and tear parts. some waterpump can holds up to 200k km. but some only lol. Replacing the water pump in which the pump itself isnt that expensive will be better as it'll be done while the timing belt is off. if die half way, overheating GG need to resurface head sumore
