thanks zweimmk for translate
base on the article the recalled at 2011 sep, that means they already solved the problem?
but my car even worse, some more need towed back....

Was looking forward to commit to a 2.0NA. Nw hv to think twuce. Will monitor this thread.

Taxi like to bully, so last Saturday when this taxi try to force into my lane, I don't give a damn and so we collide. Now waiting for result from police. From the clashes, the taxi dent at the corner front bumper and mine dent from the side two doors to the end at the back bumper. So clearly can see who is wrong.

sometimes they deserve a lesson..cutting into lanes without consideration of others causing us to do sudden brakes..stopping for passengers when and where they like...but using ur new car to teach them that lesson...hahaha i salute u...

After the warranty period..i will looking the cheap parts replacement..as no point to use the money for something that we can source outside even we afford it..like the Intake Manifold..i rather spend the money to get Engineering company customise 1 for me..If the ECU got Problem and cost me more then 5k..i rather install aftermarket standalone ECU..  

That was a wrong question. People who buy Pugs buy with the intent of keeping it for a long while. We all bought this car for what it is and not bothered about RV. We all know RV on Pugs are poor and is also the reason we'll keep for some time. I can't see myself ever driving a Jap box. Sure it's great RV,but boring overpriced,underspec and underpowered!

I too am looking at keeping this car beyond 5 years. By which time we would have sourced for independent specialist workshops and getting spares at better prices than from SCs. Take for example 6spd AT fluid. Right now this item is costly mainly due to it being shipped from Japan to France to Malaysia. Cost can certainly drop if direct shipped to Malaysia. This just one example,I'm sure there's a lot more.  As we see more and more Pugs, I'm sure we'll see more workshops. This gives the owners a better choice and the intention to hold on to our beloved Pug longer.

So this time my friend,you got it completely wrong!

SKYjack , that is equivalent of calling you an old fart. hahaha, sorry can't resist this one

Any idea which website please? I am going to test drive this weekend for the turbo. Worry about maintenance...and 2nd price won't be so strong too. But that is the cost of having a luxurious car.

Termibait, so far the steering problem i read from your report.
This is bad aftet reading imifun posting. Ate we expected to experience all these trouble when we own a pug. Having 2nd thoughts now as i am planning to pay for my downpayment today. If like this must got a spare car la in case my ride need to overnight at sc. really i m having 2nd thoughts.

Plan to buy Panerai PAM 177, anyone here got good connection of getting good discount ?

Sctang408T, I feel u too! Anyway 408 was really meant for China market originaly rite? Before I bought, I noticed that too and sifus here also mention China & Russia being main production hub and available in websites. I bought anyway cause no big deal "made in China" cars as ...car looks and feels fantastic lah..as long Peugout..hehe...anyhow on anothr note VW Polo Sedan made  in India loo..

My 508 sudah problem. Haha

- Steering noise, something like kluk kluk sound when turning.
- Suspension squeeks.
- Intermittent directional headlamp malfunction warning.
- Door handle sensor rosak.

what is mileage like? 

pure bad luck? 

Thanks for the info SKYjack. The 408 Turbo looks like it has the most capable engine in the Peugeot line-up. How about acceleration and torque? Can it beat a Civic 2.0L and/or an Altis 2.0V?

Engine still the same TSI.
1.4L turbocharged.
HP reduced to 140 from 160
Torque improved to 250 from 240

I called the bank, Naism branch manager, SA (currently resigned) as well as the second hand car dealer.

Bank: Your HP loan is not settle.
Nasim branch manager: To trade in the car, the deal is customer with the SA, nothing link to Nasim or Peugeot.
SA: The 2nd hand dealer said not yet pass puspakom and they will need for that to settle my loan.
2nd hand car dealer: Puspakom passed last week and submitted document to bank to settle the loan. Call me back at 2pm.

I am totally hopeless with these and I told the branch manager that I will make a police report if Nasim / Peugeot is not taking responsibility for this. The branch manager claim that I should settle with the SA, not Nasim. I asked her back:" Wasn't the SA representing Nasim when he sell me the car and do the trade in deal with me?" She declined. She says Nasim only sell car, other than that, is not their problem.

I told her that I will make a police report and ask the police to go to her branch to settle the case. She told me that never mentioned Nasim or Peugoet. I said I dont care, because I made the deal there.

But I trade in the car with the Peugeot SA. I didnt sell my old car my way, but I trade it in.

I have called the 2nd hand car dealer, and he promised to call me back at 2pm today, but yet to answer any call from him.

I will call him now and want to make sure should I escalate this matter.
