Hi Pug Lovers, I've been following this forum secretly for few months now and finally I decided to visit the Peugeot showroom today with the mindset of checking out the new 208 and end up spending more time checking out 408T instead. Few items which I might need your expertise and advise before I decided to set my mind for 408T. Appreciate if you can shed some light on the questions that i have below and thanks in advance:

1) Current promo given is (RM8k rebate + free mini ipad), is this the best offer in the current market?

2) How is the maintenance cost looks like for those who owned 408T since we only service the pugs every 10KM?

3) There is a lot of pug owners raise their concern about the after sales service provided by the SC is horrible in this forum. Do all Bluebox SC really so horrible?

4) 5 years warranty, good news or bad news? cause I read alot of comments i this forum that most of the new pugs got alot of minor problems and need to visit the SC to get
It fixed.

Appreciate if you can shared your valuable experience with your lions before I join this big family. Thank you! =)

Hi jfcheong,

Thank you so much for your swift response, if the estimated maintenance cost really stated as per your response then I will consider it reasonable infact cheaper compare to Jap car. I am currently using Nissan Grand Livina and my 5000km service already cost me RM300++. =)

Which 10k promotion that you are referring to?

Last question and sorry for bugging your life cause I am really interested with 408T and if possible would like to get the best deal. How do you find out about this 10k promo? Did you manage to request for it?

Thank you for sharing and appreciate it.

Very interesting and looks like peugeot gonna have new 408 model coming out. =)

I have not owned a pug yet before but maybe looking into
getting one anytime soon =)

Will it void the warranty by installing the insulation kit?

Well done and awesome looks! *thumbs up* thanks for sharing too. Any idea how much it cost for the spacer for all fours?

Custom made spacer? So we definitely cant look for it outside those normal tyre shop? What happen to your original rims then? You trade in?

Or maybe RCZ instead.

But isn't all the above especially on item #1 can be done at blue box itself? What do the technician advise you to do it outside instead? *Confused*

Seriously? Damn! I was thinking of getting the 408T already. I guess I need to think twice now, how come Peugeot do not have balancing and alignment equipments in their blue box?

The checklist are available to download in the first page of this thread. But something which stated in the checklist which I need to clarify with everyone. Any idea what is Yellow Tweezer?

Correct, it is all about the after sales service, I also do have friends which owned a tyre shop but again I think I had a very high expectation towards Peugeot and that is the reason why I expect blue box to have everything in place especially their 4S blue box serrvice centre.

Well I think you might had misunderstand my definition. I am not voicing out my dissatisfaction in this thread or neither spreading out the negativity as well. In fact I will be making my booking tomorrow, sorry if I had offended you but I had the same thoughts as roadrunnerPenang whereby we as consumers will have higher expectation towards the product that we bought and also service that we paid and thats normal. In fact myself are working in the customer service line so constant feedback is a very useful tools for future improvement. *peace* =)

Thanks for confirming bro.

As I mentioned earlier, I was pretty surprise when I got to know about this and plus my current car manufacture SC has everything under one roof. So for all sudden it triggered my sense of comparison but of course just like what you said, It is just a small issue.

Would you mind to share what 3M tinting that you've used bro? The specs and which outlet?

Thanks for sharing bro, I am currently using Vkool 40 for my current car and the heat rejection is very good but not dark enough, I have to tint second layer to make it darker. Now I was thinking of trying other tinting brand when I get my new lion.
