X50 owners kena kantoi la tu?

inb4 Geely just want Proton to help push out all the 3cyl?

X50 sheep kena slap 99

Inb4, bmw also 3 cyl y u no kecoh

Because BMW German quality brader...

Pray hard n hope that the engine mounting doesn’t fail even a little bit.

It will spread like cancer n then your drive shaft, steering rack, arm, ini itu, will start to fail too.

But but

Volvo is in our blood too!

German blood > Swedish blood

Haha.

Even the myvi king also 1.5L 4cylinder.

Edit: remembered about the Proton spare parts problem. Double trouble when the engine starts making problem.

All Hail Hitler!

actually there are 3 things that owners should be worried about in the X50/X70
which is the reason why i won't recommend anyone to buy

the 3 pot engine, the turbochargers and the DCT

the same goes to perodua and other manufacturer as well(not just proton)

3cyl + 1 branding = 4, owai kek

anyhow ayam aint gonna go for 3cyl regardless of brand

BMW 3cyclinder has balancing shaft.
Now thats a different story

I tot the X50 engine have this balancing mechanism too?

If I’m not mistaken, it is something like a block stuck inside the sheave so everytime when reach the problematic degree of rotation, the indifferent of weight will nullify the problem.

But you guys 1990's 3 cylinder from kancil and 2020 3 cylinder in Ativa are years apart i engineering and advancement. Even small companies like Koenigsegg are using it. The super famous GR Yaris is also a 3 cylinder. Motive engineering in Aussie is already pushing 700HP from that.

good luck to current X50 owners

Ok i must apologize.
I tot the x50 dont have,
But ended up it does have a balance shaft.

posting in /k mechanic engineering tered

2 cylinder > all
at least for city driving....

Turbo charging has been around quite long and should be reliable right

Still can see Evo 3 and many older WRX

saying this cos I kinda like the new Civic FE

i guess majority 3 cyl will have the balancing stuff..

but but but, why they back to 4cyl

reliable or not is 1 thing
but almost no owner service the turbo

yes, turbo need servicing too and manufacturer do not provide such service
which leads to turbo failure

think of the turbo as another engine, another wear and tear, another part of the car that requires your maintenance and your care
which means another money burning parts
