Never knew the aircon  is so loud....All my family members and some friends was like...WTF you driving??? ~~LOL....Coz its quite loud the engine sound.....

I got the same feedback on day one but the beauty of it here is when you're inside the car, it's barely audible. In the one week I had my car I only noticed the sound less than a handful of times. If I remember correctly, those old Merc E class were the same, perhaps even louder.

yes, it is a 308 sedan that should replace the 408 as the family c-segment sedan in future. the 408 will most probably evolve into a GT type car like a CLS or CLA and be a slightly more niche and upmarket model (with higher price as well)... from my predictions lah.

308 sedan sound great to name the Peugeot seg C sedan. The current 408 naming kinda abit confusing, though we the owner know whats going on lah, but not those not-Peugeot-owner.

So.. last Sunday I was driving. As per normal... then suddenly a msg appears on the radio display "battery charging issue or faulty lining" or something like that. I called up pug care line. They said no worries. I can still drive the car. Bring in for check up at service centre.

5 mins later, all hell brakes loose. Esp sensor off. Power steering failure. Radio goes off and had to stop my car. Towed it to glenmarie as I didnt want to take risk and covered by insurance.

Monday morning I call up GM and find out whats the issue. They tell me its the battery. I tell them fine. Change the battery. This is despite the battery being changed just last September for battery problem. They tell me no issues otherwise, and my car will be ready in the evening by 5. So I make plans with my colleague to drop me there and bring back the car. I told him to call me back when the car is done. 2pm no call. 4 pm. No call. I call back at 430pm. He tells me they ve not started on my car. I sounded the fella over the phone... but had to accept because nothing can be done.

Today again I had to call up and find out. Called at 10am. He said all settled already they are going to wash the car. Can collect in the afternoon. So my colleague dropped me off there. They tell me the car is ready. I ask him why is the battery so expensive. 540 incl labour charge. He said its expensive as it s a European battery. Its delco not delkor. Again, I layan his story and just pay. I go to my car, open my booth. I see the new battery box there. Delkor. The sales fella doesnt know his own stuff. I point it out to him, he shows me the price listing. Again I accept. Not much of a difference to me...

Here is where shit hits the fan... I drive out of the service centre, not 20 metres down the road, the same bloody warning sign comes on. I bring it back in, And get them to check. The technician comes, plugs in a computer and tells me the turbo cooler gasket or something is out, and needs to be changed; under warranty. Then they need to check all the other systems.

Accepting this again, I tell them I have to go back to klang. I ask for a shuttle to klang (pushing my luck) they tell me the shuttle car met with accident and the courtesy car is with another client. Had to pay for my own taxi to subang komuter station.

Tomorrow have to call and find out more... fml...

Write a complain to Peugeot France and also Peugeot Careline.

This is definitely not acceptable. Trust me, the SCs are all bullshit (my point of view after all the posts).
Mine car is yet to be fixed. Part arrived as careline confirmed. Careline request me to wait for the SC to call up for appointment but what? Already 2 weeks, i receive no call.

This is real bad. You shouldn't let it sit. Write to Peugeot and at the same time to Kementerian Pengguna as well.

Already emailed them last night. They called back this morning after investigation. Apparently alternator gone. And water pump. Should be ready tomorrow or today. Sad that it had to take so much effort for something which should have come standard.

Well, even the turbo ones also go no alarm. You will be able to find your car la if you are lost, just without the sound effect.
You can press on the lock button again, then you can will start blinking at you.

For the viper, I never care about parking under hot sun or cover. LOL. Cant advise you.

Called CLIC again to follow up my engine mounting claim.

CLIC told me that the service manager will call me by today or tomorrow morning. If they are still not calling me, I will need to follow up with CLIC again.

Then I asked for a small favor for transferring the part to another SC, they said cannot. I understand why they can't do so but I am just so pissed.
I told them if the worst case happened, I will just lodge a complaint at Consumer Department. She replied:" Sir, we will try our best to assist you. Please call us back if no call still on tomorrow."

I really wish that I need not to go through such process to get my car fixed.

Waiting time: 1 year and 5 days.
