Guys,

Anyone of you drive to Genting before. I been driving twise to Genting, the car just choke and the engine die. I notice is only happen in the slob, cause I have drive to PD before with no problem. After resting a while or let the car to cold down about half and hour. It work back. First time I when up got error "engine fault", then send back to SC. They said Temporary error could be mixture Esso and Petronas of fuel due to report show result from fuel. Then I purpose make a second trip to Genting, this time event worst. Just half hill (Temple) it die again with no error. It keep dieing about 10 times or more before reaching Genting. From my though, it seem something have been overheating. Cause after the last stop. I rest for 30min, the car just go back to ordinary. Any guys of you have this experience before? Mind to share opinion?

Really no luck with the car. From 3rd day of this car came out already have problem.

It's only been 3 days and I've already found 2 issues with the car. Given my never ending streak of bad luck with cars....this comes as no surprise.

1. Left windscreen washer is not functioning. Right wasn't either but I kept trying to use the washer and it eventually sprang to life after a while.
2. Some vibration noise in the front left. Only noticeable when AC is on or driving on very rough surface....like those cement parts of the highway.

I'm gonna wait for the 2.5k inspection to report these. Any advice guys?

Hi there.
I had similar problem as you. Right working then left should working as well because both from same pipeline(correct me if I'm wrong). Maybe you can use nail to clean the hole of washer... Or you dismantle the soundproof at the engine hood, check whether have water flow to left washer or not

For front left noise, I believe it from door panel...

Believe it or not, I'm relieved I'm not the only one facing these problems. Having had faced unique problems with my Vios which was only temporarily resolved after numerous visits to the SC and blind troubleshooting by them because they never could reproduce it....knowing this is not a "unique" issue is somewhat of a relief.

Was the problem with the door panel fixed? Any suggestions on how to approach the SC about this? I never had much luck with those rattling noises in my Vios when trying to get the SC convinced that I wasn't just hearing noises in my head....because whenever I went for a test drive with them, it didn't happen....but it did every other time.

So you had tried many time pull and hold but no water out from washer also ?

You do request SC to rectify the source in the first place. Gentle press on the panel when rattling noise can be heard. If noise disappear, do dismantle the panel and then check all the clip/screw to make sure everything tighten up. After re-install panel back, test drive...

Similar problem as you...I may dismantle it myself if I have time... hmm.gif

Hi Eugene Ong
I think one or more sensors feeding into the ECU are not functioning. IMO your engine failure is due to too rich a mixture. Density of air decreases with altitude. This means as you climb higher the air gets thinner. ECU sensing this will correct the amount of fuel accordingly. If the fuel injected into the cylinders is not reduced according to density of air, the result is too rich a mixture to support combustion. The engine just dies.

In other words. Genting trip with 408t is not possible? Peugeot Malaysia should address this issue to all owners.

After reading so many negative comments on 408 and I have been spendIng a day reading a forum in China. Found there are many happy users. e.g. their batteries can last at least 1.5 years and some even dead just after 3 years. The owners there are technically strong and they even have link to dowmload software for diagnosis some models of Peugeot car. Production quality, user perceptions are so much different. We live in depression.

Yeah...after a couple of times the right side started working after spurting some air out but left still doesnt work. I'll try cleaning the nozzle with a pin when I have some time.
Thanks for the feedback on the vibration noise. I'll need to get someone to drive my new Pug while I try to figure out where the noise is coming from. Not gonna be easy letting someone else take the wheel though.

Not true! Genting trip with 408T or NA should NOT be a problem. It ONLY becomes a problem if there are issues with your ECU.

I'm suggestion a possible scenario for engine failure at higher altitude. Based on the symptoms displayed it could be defective senor. If the ECU does not get the right inputs,it will not command the right fuel signal which can cause the engine to die.

I'm sure many,turbo & NA, have already done Genting run without problems.

Hi guys,

The bulb below our H1 bulb is W5W right??? Im looking to purchase a bulb for that, but i need to double confirm. Coz the current bulb is rounded and looks pretty big. And the one which im planning to get looks quite small in size. Scared cannot fit. How do i determine which is the correct bulb?? Can advise??

Thank you.
