Wanting to buy either Peugeot 408 1.6T or 2nd Hand Volkswagen Jetta 1.4. Both at RM120k

I know both have their bads. From the owners' feedbacks the Peugeot 408T's battery cannot last long and some minor problems that can be fixed under the warranty. For the Jetta, of course the DSG gear box problem.

What are the others bads from both cars. Appreciate from owners' feedbacks. Thanks

I would say Jetta but u gotta make sure that unit is using the new version of the Mechatronics and Clutch packs.

+1, and u can guess which is the most troublesome or $$ to fix ? battery or gearbox ? tongue.gif tongue.gif jk...

u may test out both first, which give u the best feel since i assume u use it for daily. Then only think about the issue whether u wanna take the risk or not.

battery and gearbox may I say is a common problem? cuz not everyone having this issue, maybe 50 - 60% ? smile.gif

Battery - I think it depends on luck..got customer using it since the day launch, no problem.

Gearbox - depends how u drive, also some customer dont have such issue either smile.gif
