Proton X50 Engine Mount Malaysia
Engine mounts 80,000–100,000 km. 3-cylinder inherently less balanced — mounts important for vibration isolation. Malaysia RM 180–360/pair.
- 3-cylinder engines have inherent vibration — quality engine mounts are critical
- Worn mounts make the 3-cyl vibration much worse; replace at 80,000–100,000 km
Engine Mount Wear — Proton Malaysia
Proton engine mounts typically wear at 80,000–100,000 km — city stop-start traffic accelerates wear. Signs: vibration at idle (especially with A/C on), thud when shifting from P to D (auto), rough feeling at throttle tip-in. For 3-cylinder X50/X70/X90, engine vibration is inherently higher — worn mounts amplify this significantly. Cost: RM 100–220 per mount at independent workshops; always replace in pairs at minimum.
