read, it say is a cornering fog light, when turn corner it will auto on and after that will off itself. but jst now i saw another 208 pass by me and i saw the light is on.

Virtual Blue owner checking in. Got my car yesterday.

Just to check on d glove box air con vent, does it cone with a adjustment valve? If yes I need to get mine from Sc.

Also noticed radiator fan is quite loud.

Contacted my Peugeot dealer n told him. He didn't understand the absence of the glove box air con vent valve.
He said his unit in showroom did not have the valve too. Need to convince him that its supposed to be there but its missing.
Other than that things are great with the 208. Testing fuel consumption now.

Is it something to do with new stock ? Mine has a valve...rotate to open/close. I leave it to min opening...cools down my sunnies inside..

Just popped in to ask if anyone's gotten a hold of any accessories for their 208s yet? I've seen a few GTis already, too sexy. I'd love to have the rear spoiler for my own 3-door. And a bit of those racing stripes would be good, too. Saw a 208 GTi recently with Ligne 'S' In Stripe decals. Gorgeous.

Come to think of it, in one of the earlier showings of the normal model, I saw one with the Ligne 'S' In Chequered decals.

I guess I could always order the decals myself from a sticker shop or whatever, but the rear spoiler is going to be tricky to get a hold of unless if it's already available...

Someone from this group is selling the rear spoiler for non-GTi 208. You can join in and browse the posts.

May i know is there any issue with the GEARBOX problems. I heard there is gearbox problem.

thanks

Yesterday morning, when i'm on my way to uni, ALL OF SUDDEN !! *ENGINE TEMPERATURE FAULT PLEASE STOP VEHICLE*  !!!! and i was like WTF WTF & WTF !!!!? The temperature suddenly *BOOM* rises to the MAX !

I immediately stopped my car aside and open up my bonnet to check. Nothing seems to be wrong, checked the water level and it is still at the correct water level that it supposed to be.

Then i called the service center(chan sow lin branch). Peugeot technician told me if water is not leaking, most probably is the sensor malfunction.

SENSOR MALFUNCTION ._. not even half year car (only 4&half months) has SENSOR MALFUNCTION !! what kind of stupid joke is that?

So, after a long "scolding session" with the technician, i try to make an appointment with them ASAP to fix the current problem. and you know what? "I'm so sorry sir, we currently don't have spare parts for the model 208, if you can wait, you can leave your car here, we can help you to diagnose and check exactly what is causing the problem. THEN we help you to order the spare parts OR if you cannot wait, you can straight go to our puchong outlet"

Then after i got the puchong outlet's number and address and i called them up (Puchong outlet).
The technician told me to come over tomorrow (11/10/2013) which is today and let them diagnose.

SOOOOO, TODAY... (time : 1500+-) i started my car and the warning sign is still there.
While i'm on my way to the service center (puchong outlet) SUDDENLY ! MAGICALLY ! SURPRISINGLY ! the warning gone away.
so i'm pretty sure is the sensor which is causing the problem...

Then.. i've reach there.. talked to the technician.. try to ask them to fix it asap and...... ._. the technician told me "Sorry la bang, hari ni dah full. Banyak kereta lagi kena service hari ni."
wtf man.. you ask me come all the way just to let you *touch touch* *wramp wramp* *looking around* AND ASK ME COME BACK NEXT WEEK ?! THAT'S ALL ???!!!
ended up made an appointment with them next week ._.

what a bad experience ._. even my old car (proton saga) also don't have such problem / bad service

Bro Derrick,

not sure is it a problem or not. 208 gearbox is sometimes quite Jerky especially when is in sports mode.
when i'm on highway (with sports mode on) and when the time i reach Tol (need to slow down, thus i have to brake)
you will feel the whole car like jerky (chok har chok har* in cantonese)

maybe this is due to the high ratio of the gear, that's why you'll feel jerky whenever the car lowered the gear

Just did my 20k service and they didnt give me any free gift until i asked. They gave me a damn towel. I noticed some of them in the fb group who did 10k service and got a cutlery set while i got none. Do we have to ask for gifts like these all the time? Please enlighten me.
