hi guys...currently puretech 1.2 is selling at 70k? good time to buy?

Now is a good time to buy anycar till the end of Aug 2018. SST and GST free.

what do you mean in johor no choice? no third party service/official service in johor at all?

Tried all the SC in johor. They are all the same. Third party..maybe they are but not sure which are the good ones.

Yeah. I bought mine at 83k last July and am now like... WTHHHH

Do some research first.its a good price to me. If havent bought yet..i would buy this. My brief search in groups..seems this 208 1.2t relatively low issues. my 2013 208 had a few issues... temp sensor, aircond issue, oil sensor issue, suspension (maybe wear n tear). Else its relatively problem free..

Hi guys - it seems rather strange that Peugeot Malaysia doesn't offer any free servicing although it does give 5 years warranty.

What's the maintenance cost for this car (208 Puretech) like? The current no-GST and discounted price is really tempting!

Hi Everyone,

I owned 2013 peugeot for 2 years already (bought 2nd hand). I have experienced jerky gear transmission from gear 1 to 2 especially after long travel. Its jerky that the whole passengers can feel it. I know its sound weird, but it really is. No faulty and everything else is good.

Let say i travel from kedah to KL, and then reach town, would required usage at low gear more often. Here I will experienced it.
It will be okay after few days.
I go to service shop, they always say this gearbox can tahan one. But i never really ask them to fully inspect it.

I always service outside peugeot SC (since i got the car with no warranty) and change transmission oil and engine oil regularly.
Have anyone ever experience this. Any idea or advice?

Thanks in advance.

sigh i'm scared to buy this car because of the jet engine aircond, wonder if it is normal for all conti cars.

why u scared? scared fly away ?
Good car for the money. can find 1.2 pure tech for about 60-70k used/ pre reg 1 to 2 years. If not mistaken saw someone quoted new around 70k.

Hi, mind provide some information on the maintenance cost per year and common problems you've faced? I'm considering getting a second hand 208 year 2015

Considering on this 208 second hand as well, but a bit scared bcoz one my friend 308t stay in sc more than his house. Saw some 2014 car going less than rm40k but still unable to convince myself to get one.. it will be 2nd car for rainy day.. 1st car was kimchi that everyone say don't buy but it serve us well fir the past 8yrs. all seasoned owners advice needed how is your car performance after 4 yrs?

Hi guys. I’m considering a 2nd hand 208 2013 5 door. Forgive my noob ness as the actual car is not available for viewing.

Is the size of the interior smaller, equal or bigger than the original myvi?

I know the height is lower, but what about width of the driver and passenger seats? For example I consider my myvi able to seat normal adults comfortably in the rear, or enough for 3 for a lunch drive.

Also, what about rear leg room?

I upgraded from myvi to 208. Overall interior feel roomier on Myvi. I think rear passenger space bigger on Myvi. 208 bootspace is bigger. Driver n front seats far much more comfortable than Myvi. So its give and take space. 208 dimension is bigger but the body is thicker..so it feels smaller than myvi. But the driving exp is unmatched. On highway u wont sway when drive past lorries even at high speeds.

Thanks bro for us reply. I read some of ur posts here, so far change sensors n compressor? I wondering mine change compressor under warranty or not....Cos it's almost surely out of warranty. I did go for a sitting test on another 208 nearby and concur with your points on the internal cabin space vs myvi : give or take but more comfortable on the Pug.

You'll need to check with Service Center i guess. Aircond parts we're under Peugeot recall so i assume most/all 208 in that batch was recalled to change aircond parts. Mine is 2013, first batch. Yeah, temp sensors went haywire.. but quite minor issue, after changed new one no more issue. They are very strict with warranty. CAnnot exceed service interval by 2 weeks (time) or 500km (milage). once exceed, consider void warranty. when i did some warranty claim, they checked EACH service i did if i've exceeded any limit or not.

Bro, my car show engine fault, need to service and the car was like jerking limping home. When I switch off the car it the fan was running for some time.

Actually this is my first day wi5h the car man....

Can I guess is this the temperature sensor problem? I’m gonna have to fix it out of warranty, what poor luck....

Could be... temp went up ? temp sensor issue quite simple...and it doesn't affect the engine.. still smooth sailing.. only Aircond because temperature reading is different. Yours might be more serious issue.. better to SC check.

Temp is fine....not hot. I reading some posts from FB, now many ppl claim O2 sensor fault could also cause this. Tmr no service centre open in Perak...hai.....

haha..tough luck ya. my oil level sensor is off for very long. low warning, sometimes its true(when measured dipstick) sometimes just false alarm. I have become numb and immune..so I don't bother any more...
