QUOTE(matsukatsu @ Feb 2 2013, 08:56 AM) Does this even take into consideration of 5liters engine oil for Pugs ? Japs <= 2.0cc only 4liters max right? Okay, good spot. It's one more litre of engine oil required. 5L vs 4L 1L extra will cost you anything between RM50 ~ RM70 more. Seeing the bill cost around RM307 ~ RM340, the servicing cost for the NA version is reasonable . Something interesting about the EW10 engine I dugged up http://www.peugeot-citroen-moteurs.fr/cach..._data_sheet.pdfIt has VVL and VVT on the intake. |

Today's the day to collect my Puggy home, can't sleep last night. Ya 5 liters of engine oil definitely more expensive. As the old Cantonese saying goes, "eat salted fish, expect the thirst".

Anything you've got on this? Best I've read is in Wikipedia..  Best Engine Award for 07,08 & 09. |

Btw, had read in earlier post by ano bro, on 408 aircond settings. Apparently the manual states the numericals doesn't equate to temperature& more like comfort setting. Hence, setting of 21 is not equivalent to 21celcius . I was earlier confused myself.

Ok finally got my 408T unit around 5pm at the tinting shop in seremban (Ray Tech). Drove it back just now on PLUS and I noticed at some stretch of the highway, my speed was around 130-150kph Sports mode off, felt the car with subtle bounciness. Have you guys/gals felt that before? If I'm a woman not wearing bra, it'll be quite a discomfort. I installed the RayTech V90 solar tint didn't do the security film version. QUOTE(matsukatsu @ Feb 2 2013, 12:20 PM) Congrats joeaggas!

Since its brand new, do giv a check on your tyre pressure- could be as some bro described earlier as 'show room' pressure. Nevertheless, 408 T has firmer ride and the subtle bounciness only reflects that + irregularities on the road. My 408 NA's bounciness is there as well on higher speeds( more noticeable 140kmh up) but the softer setting does compensate it pretty well. |

Good question RON408. I had same query myself earlier. As on using Total, I am presuming it would be BAU as Total is France's national oil company rite? So for Nasim to be using Petronas, BAU again lah ..hehe. Anyhow ( touch wood), so far so good on Syntium |

Talking on fuel, my 408NA had some 'hiccups' last 2weeks- this is just after 10k service.
My engine had behaved rather erratically ( rpm interval jumping within small band) and its just like hiccups- for lack of word to describe.
Traced back n thought it might be contaminated fuel +water. Didn't remember which station but my lion really felt like "mabuk on whiskey" Anyhow, only able to bring in for servicing 1week later to Balakong SC. Service is pretty good & had left my lion overnite. SC cleaned up
the spark plugs and run some diagnostics. Found out there is some sort of carbon built up. There is no sensor error or any detection earlier though. Cut short, lion is now healthy & running about. Service is FOC.
I was suspecting fuel contamination that leads to incomplete burning hence carbon built up on spark plugs.Just wanting to know if other puggies had same issue on NA b4 n same mabuk like characteristics?
Plus, BHP for my lion tak ngam lah. Dunno why but not as smooth. Had been using Petron. Possibly sensor adapted to regular fuel pumped?

But dont expect too much on the comfort ride on 408T, its rather bouncy while speeding due to the low profile tyre and firmer tuned suspension. On the other hand, this setting does provide better handling. |

The driving is great, but wife complain back is bouncy. Coz im fetching my baby and wife. Can we tune the suspension to softer settings? Anyway to reduce the bounciness? |

Coz im fetching my baby and wife. Can we tune the suspension to softer settings? Anyway to reduce the bounciness? It's not possible to tune to a softer suspension. However you can reduce the bouncy effect by changing to normal profile tyres and softer suspension systems. Bear in mind,this will be a compromise on handling. |
