The joke buy 2 for current proton is soo lame. Can we stop that already? No one really buy 2 units because of sparepart unreliability. Same as Banyak Masuk Workshop joke too, its not a joke anymore coz its too lame to be laugh about.

Why butt hurt? Proton sales ka? I owner also I can criticise my X70 got few problems masuk workshop ma. And it's also true that spare parts were hard to get. To this day you buy parts like mounting outside is impossible to get Proton made parts, can only import from China Geely parts.

Not say very bad la but if comparing others within same class its quite bad. im getting around 400km+- for rm80-90. if on hiway usually worse since I tend to tekan more. mine is ckd 1.8. Filling up petrol also a bit weird la for me, If I fill up from empty it will start tendang from rm70. then u need to press slow2 while adjusting the nozzle and you can get another rm30+-. my other cars usually u can get around rm5-10 only after the frist click.

I'd say if u really tekan and fill up to the brim like 100+- once its on the final bar. I have never tried draining it untill dry really dry. just single bar and I find petronas edi. spec wise on paper it has 60l tank.
best I get is 450++km on a good day with eco drive on and drive gentle like pandan. For comparison my friend tiguan can get like 600++ km anytime. He say la I dunno I poor can only afford conti wanabe C̶C̶P̶ malaysia car only. But price wise it's a blardy big difference.

I can concur, drove my friends Tiguan before on long trip. 6-700km same full tank RM100. Man X70 FC is damn lousy.

The 1st batch some owners fail gearbox is due to no change of gearbox AT oil. As previously the warranty for the 6AT gearbox if not mistaken is 3 years only, so either SC or owner think that the gearbox is lifetime and neglect it. If you ask mechanic outside, the 6AT is way more stable/smooth and less jiggering compare to the DCT gear change.

Dumbest defense of Geely/Proton I've ever heard. No change gearbox oil lol, you think we owners stupid or SC mechs stupid? Lol really got people stoop so low to plotek plotek

This argument is flawed and doesn't makes sense at all. Based on your reasoning, the same can be applied to every other cars with AT gearbox.

Are you saying all AT gearbox of any car models have the same issue on high failure rate due to SC / driver negligence ?
Or only x70 driver / all SC purposely don't want service 6at of x70 model only, but other cars with AT gearbox no high failure rate ?

IKR like......seriously dumb AF.

Basically saying we owners and our Proton SCs purposely not servicing ATF for some stupid reason. doh.gif doh.gif doh.gif

This is SC/manufacturer at fault for sure coz the warranty limit say it all.
Early batch 3 years warranty already knew how far they are going to give you the product lifespan if without oil change. Thus why outside mechanic recommend to change it early.

If you don't know please don't comment like damn smart like that la.

First thing, Proton already extend to 5 years warranty.

Second thing, all servicing is done according to service manual, like every other single car in the world. We owners not dumb. CBU 6 speed failure is because Geely design badly fullstop. You think SC intentionally don't service for what, Proton is the one that have to pay for new GB, not to mention suffer the reputation loss. Just diam diam learn if you don't know, don't simply comment like must be correct like that.
