GPS/LCD touch screen for 408T?
Guys, I just booked a 408T. According to SA, I can get a Peugeot OEM touch screen with reverse cam from their panel workshops. Anyone can tell me what is e specs and how much will this cost?
Anyone has experience using this?
Thanks.

Hi,
i got my 408T for just 3 days now. Total 150km, FC like 13.5L/100km, average 21km/h. Most of the time stuck in jam. Is the FC too high?
thanks.

QUOTE(SKYjack @ Aug 22 2013, 04:43 PM) Your engine is still very new. After the 10K service, will settle around 9L/100km urban driving, 10L/100km city driving. Anything better or worse depends on how heavy or light your foot is!  Thanks for the feedback. 10k is a long way to go.....anyway, I am trying to gauge if other owners have the same FC. for the first few thousand KM. The driving condition should be quite similar for many people, morning and evening going through KL jam to work and back. I guess 70% of the time we can't really step on it, as the distance to the car in front during jam doesn't allow that. Usually I feel that the engine drags 1st and 2nd gears longer, then brake. Then the the same cycle again.

QUOTE(abangfadli @ Aug 26 2013, 12:39 AM) i own the lion 408... i wanna upgrade to dvd player with navigation... is there any original unit or only "other" brand available... i found many in ebay, but if i bought online, im worried about the assembling of the unit.... any experience buying dvd player/navigation not from oem...? does this void any warranty of the electronic parts? my SA told me that there is a panel workshop doing this, OEM for Peugeot. Only OEM will not void warranty. The sales girl quoted me RM5.8K  Forget it.

QUOTE(Anfieldrock @ Aug 25 2013, 01:39 AM) My 408T engine is very loud from the outside. Probably from the aircon. Anyone with a similar experience? It is perpetually loud all the time as soon as I start my engine  I have the same experience with my 408T. The fan still runs even after engine turned off, for a while. I am also wondering if this is normal. Other makes (eg japanese cars) have silent engine/acond.

QUOTE(chenglong @ Aug 27 2013, 03:58 PM) I already check with Sale person, manufacture year is 2013. other than 12k discount, not give any free gift at all. hehe I think you don't get the free 5 years maintenance (parts+labor) due to 12k discount? standard rebate is rm3k, and another rm8k if you forgo the free 5 years maintenance.

QUOTE(SKYjack @ Aug 27 2013, 01:56 PM) I wrote about this some time back. If you back track,you'll find it. The short answer, this is to cool the turbo. I searched for your post and got it. thanks. On the other hand, this might drain battery, but I guess it's inevitable. How about guide me home and auto headlights? These might drain battery as well, but do you guys use them?

QUOTE(chenglong @ Aug 27 2013, 05:09 PM) Ya, not free 5 year service. Only get 5 year warranty I heard nasim is making 408 more affordable because they want to hv the volume. I guess they committed certain numbers in order to secure ckd contract?

Guys,
I got my 408T almost 1 mth now. I notice that all 4 tyres lose pressure quite quickly, I.e. last night I pumped 220kpa, tonight check only left 205kpa, yes all 4 tyres. However the week before the rate was -20kpa each tyre in 1 week. I'm monitoring them more closely now.
These tyres were manufactured 41 week of 2012, which I think quite old as I just got my car for less than 1 mth ago.
Any advise what I should do? Do you think the SC will replace my tyres?
Thanks.

Hi ppl,
I just noticed 2 more problems: 1. Fuel smell outside car in the morning right after starting engine 2. When driving, Radio volume goes up louder by itself. It's more noticeable when playing via USB drive.
Any ideas:experience?
Thanks.

QUOTE(ghost007 @ Sep 3 2013, 05:51 PM) Hi Wjchay The fuel smell is due to the unburn fuel when the engine is cold, normally the RPM is higher in the morning or when the engine is cold , which burn more fuel to help to warm up the engine faster, our Lion is much better when compare with Camry, the petrol smell is even stronger, guess no problems with your engine. Radio will get louder- this is to help u to hear when the ehgine rev at higher speed, this function found in Camry and most of the new car now, our Lion is so quite Hi ghost007, thanks for the tips.
