I use the same method. Hose down the car thoroughly before touching it for the wash.

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.

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

Lol!
Over 1 year is just too long. Someone must have messed up locally. I'm having trouble believing Peugeot's service is so bad.
Perhaps you should just open a case with the right folks. Even if you don't get any compensation, it'll help put pressure in the right places for future improvement.

To each his own I guess. It's amazing how much people are influenced by forum posts these days. Go to the Vios forum, there are so many problems reported there and I'm the only one I know who's unfortunate enough to experience some of them. Everyone else I know haven't had to repair anything on their Vios. It's your luck at the end of the day. Oh and also how you drive.

Support the brand? Most of us here bought it because we like the car not the brand and it's our choice. If you don't like it that's your choice. No car is perfect. I've had numerous issues with Toyota but does that make it a bad brand? And what returns are you talking about?

Perhaps the volume of the audio system was high?

Lol! Good one.

Technically yes. Pratically, don't know, never tested properly....butt dyno only.
Hot air has lower density, leading to lower overall power output......which in turn leads us to press harder on the accelerator.....resulting in poorer FC.
I usually feel my car has more power after heavy rain....and this was with my Vios. No chance to drive the P408 in rain yet.

Same here. No sounds....or maybe I'm just not hearing it.

Don't forget adding some stickers for extra horsepower.

I think our lion is much heavier methinks.

Depends on price and place of purchase. From Toyota/TRD is more expensive but equivalent of slapping on a turbocharger. Wonder if it'll work on our pugs.

I for one hope this part below is true. After reading the forums, it does appear that Peugeot has improved over the years although it's still got a long way to go.

Quote from the article:
We would also like to point out that fast growing brands such as Ford and Peugeot also experienced similar customer complaints alluding to the lack of after-sales capacity during their period of growth a number of years back. With a fast growing number of new customers, an unprepared after-sales network would be easily overwhelmed by the higher number of customers looking to send their cars in for routine service. Only in the past few years did Ford and Peugeot managed to turn their situation around after expanding their service network and hiring better trained after-sales personnel to meet the needs of their new customers.

That's one long list of parts replaced. The labour charges seems to be quite high....or is it normal for Contis?

Ah ok. So it's the same as all other makes. Toyota was the same too. SC quoted me 3k for an alternator without labour charges. I did the whole thing outside for 1.5k.

Hey me too. 3 weeks now. I called the hotline and was told it'll take up to 6 weeks from date of purchase for me to receive the card.

"Tuned by Porsche".....

Dang.....my car is parked outdoors without any shade 5 days a week. Touch wood.....so far so good.
