is it true the 2005 version need another extra gb cooler or just stick to 30k atf change?

and does that version also comes with jbl speaker, 7 airbags, traction control and safety technology just like the 2009 version?

2005 model does not have the gb cooler. I don't think you can attach a cooler. Cooler and JBL sound system was added to the 2008 model. All models come with 7 airbags,traction control and other safety features. I'd say stick to 30k ATF change even with the 08 model.

Market value for 09 model is 70k. Get this as it come with additional facelift.

This spare part very expensive in Malaysia. Get the CBU from 2007 and upward. Top mounting cost more than 2k. And AL4 gearbox is sensitive.

If not mistaken,08 onwards was CKD. Gb cooler was added to this model. AL4 gearbox is good,but make sure to change ATF without fail every 30K!

Bro, impossible to push hp to 160 by ECU remap alone. Check DK tuning website and they claim only 6-7hp increase on stock engine. The engine has to modified also to get 160hp.

For me, horsepower is to speed your car. The important is how much torque you can get. Torque that drive your car from 0. The higher torque, the faster your car can move from 0.

Hi all 407 sifus,

I just bought a 2009 premium spec model. Great car, no doubt!! One thing I can't seem to get it working is the usb slot. When I insert the thumb drive in the slot to listen to my songs it doesn't play. It will keep playing the CD or the radio only. On the LCD, I select multimedia, USB. On the screen it shows the list of songs. When I press play, it doesn't play! Secondly, when I insert a dvd disc to the slot it also couldn't play. Disc ejects. Does anyone here have similar problem with the player? Please advice. Thank you.

HI Kelchow,

How's your Pug doing? IM thinking of getting one, either a 09 or 10 model. Anything for me to look out for? especially for pug? since it is already 4 year old already, there must have a few parts that need to change. i.e suspension/timing belt/ engine mounting/ disc break. you know much it cost?
Sorry cant give any solution to your ICE issue.

Hi guys,

Anybody looking for used Pug 407? I'm planning to let go mine. Year 2005 CBU France. Interior condition still looks and feels good - leather seats no crack, dashboard and trims all looking good. Exterior has some minor scratch here and there. Usual la in driving in KL. But some wear and tear parts will need replacement, i.e. wheel bush and arms. Also, need to do top overhaul to clear off the carbon deposits. Otherwise, driving on the highway is a pleasure with a stable handling and cornering. Very stable car and it's pleasing design. Looks very garang. I'm willing to let go at below market rate due to the wear and tear. Please pm me if interested. Thank you.
