That's true for heavy foot. I too get about 460km for 53L. I don't really bother about FC, rather enjoy the car!
Yeap true bro, don't bother abt the FC. The Turbo is just too addicting...Peugeot 408 Owners/ Fans Thread, Motion & Emotion

QUOTE(sleepy @ Feb 22 2013, 11:55 AM) Just curious. I remember quite a while ago owners were saying that gear changes constantly at 2600rpm. Is it still the same now after months of ownership, or has the gearbox adapted to your driving style ie gear change dynamically It seems like still the same for mine, gear change constantly at around 2.5K RPM while smooth driving. Only when you pressure on the pedal, it delay the gear change. |

I think I got among the lowest here since i do weekly commute from KL to Segamat, and it averages about 8.3L/100km (see my siggie). Anyway I dont use the fuel consumption reading on the MFD since its not really accurate to the actual fuel consumption.
For a one way trip, I do about 100km of highway w/autocruise, 50km of federal roads, and 50km of town roads. This post has been edited by x800: Feb 22 2013, 01:26 PM |

my 1.6T gear change is at about 2300 rpm, normally not exceeding 2800rpm
for highway cruise, doing 8.5L/km for city drive, doing 11.5L/km hope it will get better fc after service |

I think the gearbox programming is slightly different than 508. My gear change depends on condition of the road. On a slope it will hold till 2500-2600 before change, while on level road it usually shifts around 2000. I guess that makes the slight difference in FC between 408 and 508, and also 508 is slightly lighter despite being bigger

QUOTE(rinnyrinny @ Feb 22 2013, 03:15 PM) don't panic. for 207, fuel consumption WILL be high for at least 1 year or 20,000km. After that, it will slowly improve. just keep driving the car long distance and if can, drive it hard once in a while to run in the engine.This post has been edited by lowpro: Feb 22 2013, 03:47 PM |

Today I sent my 408 2.0 NA for the first 10k (mileage : 9,303) service at Puchong SC. I reached at 8.30am and I am the second customer on the list (Total 13 customers for today). They sent me to IOI Mall to lepak there. They completed the job at 1.30pm. I am not sure whether the other service centers also take that long hours to service a car.
Anyway, total cost was RM340.30 and here are the breakdown:- 1)Service consumable - RM10.00 2) Syntium 3000 5W/30 4 litres - RM221.00 3) Syntium 3000 5W/30 1 litre - RM59.50 4) Oil filter - RM43.90 5) Seal - RM5.90 Free labour for 10K - RM90.00 The service consumable was for battery water top-up.... and car wash kot. I complained to the staff that there is a loose part, suspected a nut, inside the left front door. There is something rolling when goes uphill or downhill. I have forgotten to ask them just now... Haha... But it seems the problem is solved. This post has been edited by Pugbunny: Feb 22 2013, 04:13 PM Attached thumbnail(s) |

QUOTE(lowpro @ Feb 22 2013, 11:40 AM) actually, to be realistic, you can't expect hybrid or kancil sorts of economy. even what is posted in brochures MUST be taken with a pinch of salt simply because those tests are done in controlled conditions. like what Skyjack and EP6CDTM said, just enjoy the car and don't think too much. otherwise, you'd be fretting all the small things. Of course I am not expecting a hybrid kind of fuel consumption. Didn't expect it to be more than 10l/100km but is good to know that some are able to achieve 8+/100km on highway drive..I suppose the weight of the car does contribute to the higher consumption but the interior space is just awesome..Now they are offering 8k discount for the turbo 2013 make...very tempting... |

If you are concerned about FC than get the NA. With careful driving I'm sure you'll get very good FC. With the turbo,although on paper it returns better FC than NA,it reality it is very difficult.

Yes i absolutely understand the urge to push it..not to mention the additional turbo boost sound which makes your foot go heavier just to hear psssstttt sound...So what is the highest mileage achieved so far among owners here? Saw in fb one 308vti onwer achieved 200k km from 2009 |
