1) Try long press on the central lock button for few seconds to activate this feature, u or SA might had disabled this by doing the same thing.

2) No need to remove the memory stick, mine was left there all the time.

I can understand you're confused with the manual book cause it happened to me as well. Some of the instructions listed in the manual book does not apply to our 408 version in Malaysia. I tried the central locked activation and it works, hence please kindly do try follow the instructions below.

1) Turn your key ignition to ON/Standby position (2nd level)
2) Press the auto lock button located on your central console panel for more than 3 seconds.
3) Now, you should be able to see the auto lock activation/ de-activation indicator appeared on your HU.
4) After completing step 1 to 3 above, when you're crusing at 10kmph. You will notice there is a red light appear on the auto lock indicator.

Hope this helps.

P/S : There is no beep sounds as per stated in the manual book cause I believe the manual book is recorded for the australia version.

Same old issue. Yokohama problematic battery.
Waited an hour for technician.friendly guy and changed to delkor brand in 5 minute.

he even told me the passenger hinch may have a loosen screw which I checked and found what he said was true. He tighten up for me too. This is what I call work the extra mile. Got his name and shall write a recommemdation letter to peugeot tomorrow.

Guys, go check your door hinch (the black color one). I am pretty sure its loosen for most of the cars as he said it is normal, some manufacturer defect. That is why u will hear a click sound wjenever u open or close the door.

Good luck.

Hi. Just wondering is pug car good to maintain? My dad keep telling that the parts are expensive but I'm just wondering what is the probability that the car will go break down? What is the cost to fix it if parts need to be changed?

Yes normal. Well actually theres no reading because the speed is to low for the car to calculate the fc. Basically FC is in units of l/100km, which is inversely proportional to distance, which is derived from the speed (in this case of instantaneous fc). Mathematically if its 0 speed, infinite fc lol, except when the engine's off.

Even with very light foot like mine it'll shift up from 3 to 4 at 2.5krpm. I had to be lightfooted, I travel long distance about 500km every week. Sometimes i even use the tiptronic to upshift earlier.

Hi, just want to share experience with my Peugeot 408 NA which I bought on August 2012.

After 8 months (March 2013) of purchase, suddenly my rear trunk cover can’t be closed. Luckily I was going out from the parking spot when this happen. So had to go straight to Peugeot service and they told me that this is a common problem for 408 model because of the faulty installation on the lock inside the trunk. They just reposition the holding lock and so far it works fine until today. When asked what other common problem, they just mentioned the rubber tends to peel off at the door which is yet to happen to me.

Last Wesak day after 10 months (May 2013) of purchase and only at 18k mileage, after fueling up at PLUS highway new Petronas station before Serdang exit (south bound), my car won’t start and my wipers slowly moving indicating this might be due to flat battery. I was very surprised because there was no alarm/indication before the battery went flat & this car hasn’t reached one year old yet.

Since it was a public holiday, they can’t engage a technician to help me out in time and I had to wait for almost 3 hours because the only available Balakong technician was fixing for another car at Gombak. Good thing that the new Petronas station has new decent restaurant outlets for my wife and 7 months old baby to rest for a while.

The technician mentioned the battery is a common problem (again!) for 408 model. The current battery provided was under power which is the Yokohama battery:


They replaced with new Delkor battery:


I’m disappointed Peugeot didn’t recall the car for minor rectification. Now I’m not sure what are the next ‘common problem’. So my advices for the new owners, just request warranty replacement for the battery and the trunk lock adjustment during your first inspection. It will save you a lot of trouble.

Gather all affected owners and sign a petition asking for a replacement.

Is that possible?

2 PBB SC I visited did not have alignment equipment. I'm about to get mine done at tyre shop. Did Glenmarie solve it?

oh another topic we found out is that during the first inspection aka 2500kms, SC is supposed to unlock your car's safe mode.

If there is no changes after your visit, most likely SC "forgot" to cucuk their reader to your OBD-II connector to do the magic to leash the remaining hidden talent of your car.

Yup,K5 car club thread!

FC will improve as your engine beds in. KL city driving is a lot of jams,I don't know if you'll get down to 9L/100km even light footed! I'm not exactly heavy or light footed,my FC is 9.6L/100KM city and 9.2L/100KM urban.Not the best FC and others do better. I guess it's all about driving styles.

However, the car is such a joy that it's really hard to be light footed. We have a few heavy foot champs here with 12L/100km,city driving!
