Read in previous post abt issue on steering rack, found out mine has got a very mild noise when reverse parking as well! Not sure it's normal, our steering is powered electronically or mechanically ya?

Found the way to auto connect Bluetooth for my s3.
This is just my assumption as previously my s3 could not auto connect. But after change the setting on s3. Now it can auto connect already.

Steps 1: delete paired device with peugeot Bluetooth and repairing.
(Maybe can skip this step)
Step 2: go to phone setting, select Bluetooth.
( screen appear as my device gt-i9300 and paired device. Your phone is paired with peugeot Bluetooth now.
Step 3: tick/select visible to all nearby Bluetooth devices.
Step 4: press the function button (left button on your phone) and select visible time out.
Step 5: select never time out.

Now, try going out of your car and in for few time to see whether it auto connect or not.

Good luck......

Hi Prody,

Mind sharing what is the mileage /time length of owneship when that happened? first time bat need change?

I was told my 2.0 NA is ready to be collected, with bat changed and installed, all system tested. Nego with the service manager who promise me to give RM50 discount for labour service for next 20k km service (but no black n white voucher, just recorded somewhere ,in their sytem perhaps?

Ground for asking:

Car bought end Sep 2012 (just over 5 months), mileage just over 10,000 km (service 10k km just 3 weeks back), so how can they missed it in the 1ok km service if the bat health was weak.

Need to take cab to collect car (no complimentary pick up from office to SC)

Yours also NA, I would not expect this to happen to NA, as battery drainage /lifespan should hold better compare to Turbo

The Serv Manager said, what is replaced is a newer version better battery, I will see it to believe it when I am there to collect my car after lunch

Energy analyst,

I had one experience almost similar. The lights and wiper couldnt turn off, the engine wont start. Pop up message brake system failure (cant remember the exact message) and some other alarm message. Sent it to the SC, took them three days to troubleshoot it. guess what, the power connection to the ECU loose... so thats why.

Hi guys,

I'm newbie here...but owned my 408 2.0NA black since Jan 13. Aim this car since launched and 6 months later only got it.

Would like to share my 'black' experience.. day 2 after collect the car, suddenly its appear Engine fault - need repair & ABS faulty at the screen followed by emergency light turn on, a/cond shut down, wiper swipe at max & lights on & off like ambulance car.

Sent the car to SC - only change 1 fuse at electronic box. reset the car & back to normal. A week after it happens again. Usually happen during morning after start the car. After shut down & restart it back to norm.

Sent the car for 2nd time (incldg 1st inspection) - SC change the battery. According to them, Pug has upgrade to Denso battery..this symptom happens to most 308 & 408 models due to "multi traction electronic system" (i used the terms given by the SC). The old battery cant support the electronic system in the car. But 2 weeks after, it happens again. Don't have time to set an appointment and don't know which recommended SC can solve this problem.

Do you guys facing the same or anyone can share their experience on this?

I just replied the same experience at energy analyst's post just now. according to the sc, its the power connection to the ecu. *Shrug* they could bluff me and I wouldnt know it. TQ

I dunno about others but I wont install mud guard coz it will spoil the beauty looks. I rather adapt the habit washing my car when its dirty.

Cable loose may be small problem, but if only we know how to do it. Is still consider big problem because car don't start. If happen in the middle of highway, how much trouble given to us.

I think Peugeot should give us a free 2 hours lesson about all the wiring, what to check if this and that happen. A simple first level troubleshooting. Is also a good organise get together where u guys always asking for TT session.

Hi guys please add me arthurwirawan blue

Got the car since mid December, had 3 problems when collected the car,
1. Reverse sensor not working
2. Rear suspension judders going over bumps
3. Sports mode turns on by it self with no fault report

3rd problem only solved after numerous visits, found one of the connections loose, so far so good, otherwise it's an utter to drive.

Today went for my 2500 1st inspection, told them about the fuel leaking problem happened 2 days ago after I pumped full tank of petrol (auto stop). I noticed the smell of fuel immediately after finished pumping of petrol but thought its common since I were at petrol station. Inside the car, couldn't smell it at all.
When I stepped out of my car after reaching home, smell the fuel again. Then I found there was leaking of petrol onto the floor near the right rear tyre area.
Today sc inspection gave the bad news, there was leaking from fuel hose connecting to fuel pump. They will have to replace the whole set of hose, but they do not have stock on hand, and have to leave my pug for at least 3-5 days at sc. Sigh.... My poor little pug...

did my 2500km inspection this morning at puchong SC

drove in at 10am and completed at 12.30pm

things done:
1. fixed my not working 3rd brake light
2. adjusted front left door to eliminate wind noise

car feels livelier with safe-mode removed flex.gif

anyone noticed changes in gear shift pattern after 2500km inspection? it seems to change gear faster at 2400rpm across 6 gears now
