Any idea whats the mileage to rotate the tire? We should also do the alignment & balancing together? Or do it only while out of alignment/ balancing?

Advisable to rotate tyre at 10K. Alignment & balancing together.

Agreed! Happy hours! With designated drivers of course...

Can pin point location kah? gps, if possible? Let's just all go there for teh tarik , I hope the new Citroen 3S is allowing our Pug service there too since Glenmarie is always booked to the teeth full and it will be a while before the Citroen 3s is going to pick up service crowd, Me think, else it will be an utterly waste of space.?

At best, you can have both marques utilizing the same building, but it has to have 2 separate entrance/exits, 2 separate owners lounge, 2 separate service counters and 2 separate workshops for both marques. But they will never allow Peugeot owners to service their cars in a Citroen service center or vice versa, irregardless of how underutilized a service center is.

It's a good idea no doubt, but from a marketing perspective, it would be a disaster for them.

So for Audi/VW, they practise the same clear division of turf?

It's the same for any marque. It will still be clearly divided even if the marques share the same building.

Toyota and Lexus utilize a lot of common parts and car platform, but imagine if Lexus owners could service their cars in a Toyota Service center or vice versa. How would that look?

Actually unlike VW/Adui, Toyota /Lexus, where there is a clear division of which is mass market brand, which is premium/prestige brand, the dvidion between Citroen and Peugeot is not that clear. Iused to think Citroen is the more premium/prestige but the recnet announcement by Peugeot seemed to say otherwise

I have posted this earlier.

Loan just approved..since waiting about 4 days ago...hope i can get my 408 1.6THP Aster Gray this weeks..as my birthday on this coming 28th...will join this group soon!!

Already discussed this awhile back in the Citroen chit chat corner before you posted that. You can read that thread for more info if you want. There are some good points made there.

The most interesting thing is what do they mean by upscaling the Peugeot brand?

1. Do they intend to create an entirely new brand entity to cater to the lower income groups? Thus positioning Peugeot into the middle segment and Citroen into the high line or...
2. Do they intend to position Citroen in the middle segment and move Peugeot into the high line
3. Increase the price of Peugeot cars?
etc. etc.

Too many different possibilities but we can only speculate on their current intentions for now on how they intend to go about doing that.

That is Precisely why when we have a chance, ask lor, no harm asking, even if we may not get straight answer first, but once it becomes a FAQ everywhere, then PSA through Nasim needs to make it clearer lor. And in time, we will find out, but if we stop asking or requesting or demanding, no action mah.

I have suugested this in the Peugeot 408 post instead of citroen's because i knwo Citroen now has no one to ask, with Puggies, we have someone we can ask liao.

I pray for your birthday wish to come true

PSA needs to be more clear with their marque positioning. I agree with you that they aren't very clear when it comes to the division of brands. It seems like both marques also cater to the mass market at the same time. Then there is the high end Citroen DS line to tackle higher income groups.

Personal viewpoint is that Citroen is more high end compared to Peugeot, but like you, the recent news is making me confused on which is supposed to be the premium brand now.

Thanks dude!!
