Hi guys, I just received my x70 2025 but the car currently vibrate more than my myvi.

I sit in my old myvi is much comfy than this x70 2025, SA told me should get better after first service.

I went back to their showroom to test out the test drive unit and found out their unit don't have harsh vibration on their seat.

Not sure how should I deal with this car icon_question.gif icon_question.gif icon_question.gif

Or I need to leave the car few days for inspection and it's rather sad to leave a new car that I just received for inspection.

Update with video : they told me it's normal though. is it acceptable?



Update 9/12/2024

After sent to do alignment and balancing, but after the alignment and balancing, my brake pedal become squishy and juddering(vibrating), it's even more worse than before. Anybody know that causes of these?

If TS ever manages to claim for a lemon unit because of vibration, it will be the first.

Probably need new engine mounts only. Or the engine itself missing some parts during assembly but very unlikely.

X50 and X70, sit inside you don't feel anything but if you stand outside, you'll worry like hell let alone opening the hood. Drive a 3 pot from Perodua, vibrate inside but if you open the hood, the vibration is not that much.

Oh yes, I have tried the test drive car. Its vibration is something that not noticeable if you don’t pay attention to.

SA said because my car is still new that’s why. I’m speechless

I understand bro., vehicles aren't cheap and nobody should ever be getting a substandard new vehicle. Best is to speak to a lawyer and see what are your chances. If your case is like the Bezza Gula-Gula, then odds are on your side but with vibrations, unless it's like seismic vibrations of the Richter scale, I really don't know what are your chances bro.

Sigh. that SA sure lepas tangan punya because the car already delivered. Can try ask the X70 group if they facing same issue. then report kao kao to SC and report about the SA also. if got proof that the SA said something like that would be better.

Find another X70 and compare side by side. BTW, why Proton ? Although now 2024, it's still a Proton quality. Their service center slogan is "Proton mah, memang macam ni lah. "

Test car already seasoned the mounts. Yours probably too fresh and n ed time breaking in. But I can't be sure unless another owner can comment about it.

1st of all - Understand your car engine design (3-pot) & gearbox (DCT) nature?
2nd - You mentioned new car, how much KM on meter and did you already did your 1st service?
3rd - Did you tried pump different petrol brand to see if got difference?
4th - When the vibration happen? During traffic jam, slow moving situation?

I have a X70 (first gen) and myvi (2nd gen). There is no way X70's seats are more vibrating than myvi. Even during traffic light, there is hardly any vibration at all.

Those who say the cause is 3 cylinder probably have never test drove a X70.

The problem is probably engine mounting or some components are not properly assembled or maybe it is too new. However, I don't remember the seats vibrate a lot when it was new.

I went to test drive again the test car, the vibration is minimal, much better than my myvi would said.

But my unit is worse. Now they told me they only available next mid month for inspection, all full… really such a joke to buy new car with problem and they said need queue for service.

Oh yes! Their typical answer, tell me vibrate is normal.

I don’t remember buying brand new car with vibration though. Quite disappointed.. I know it’s almost zero chance to claim anything, maybe just need to bear with it for another 5 years-7 years.

It’s about 900.

1. Yes I test drive quite many times, but there is difference with my unit
2. I picked up 3 days ago. It’s 119km
3. Not yet finish the first tank, SA help to pump full tank shell 95
4. When it moves, it’s obvious like jumping around and vibrate.

Yes I know right! I test drive the unit is comfortable and mine is damn… it’s worse than my myvi in comfort level.

I see there is forumer have suspension problem with his x50 when brand new. but he’s not active in this forum anymore.

Maybe paying peanuts get monkey applies here?

I blame myself for being cheapskate. Was initially looking for 150k budget car, but think of saving more money and jump into x70.

Are you one of them?

I eventually just want to get my car fix, no mean to defame anyone.. but when I go through SOP, they just ignore me and push me away.. say inspection can only be done by next month

I think hiring a lawyer for this case might cause even more hole in wallet. Not a well off family, just a middle class family guy wanted to give more comfort to my family.. having two toddlers..

Oh yes, vibration is very subjective. Hard to prove it’s there sigh…

Tried to ask on group already, they asked me to back to SC. SC said next available slot is next mid month..

I usually just called up or meet with SA.. rarely through text..
