Most issues on the 408, be it NA or THP, have been QC items not defective due to design. It's important to realize the difference. The point to note is that, problems are satisfactorily fixed and customers have not reported reappearance of any issue.

What I'm saying is that you may still endup with a brake light issue,but it will be solved on warranty. As for battery,many of us are on our 2nd battery. Some got it FOC,I had to pay, as mine failed beyond warranty period. Coming up to almost a year on my new battery. All is well! 

I think now it all local battery. These last longer than the French made which were fitted to most of the early 408s.

little?

my 408T is coming tis satuarday..... soooooo。。。excited

and i can say hi to all the lion member here

Hello,

Does anyone notice that our small compartment box at the front is actually cold?? My friend was mentioning that some conti cars are like that. Its like a mini chiller.

Is our car meant to be like that, or i have some aircon leak somewhere? ~LOL

Actually i was thinking of putting Tiger Beer....Hahahahahha

Dear 408T users,

I've been following the blog and truly am interested in purchasing a 408T this weekend with the Raya promotion at RM 115k+5years warranty + Free labour & Service. This is the best bargain right.Test drove this last week at the Bangsar Showroom and it's surely the best amongst the rest. Any advice. Appreciate your reply. Thanking you.

I thought THP is the entry model and Griffe is the higher option. Stock clearance must be going on now,making way for the facelift model.

Personally I prefer the Griffe over the facelift.

Oh I see! Much better looking leather covers,with lion embossed, can be done outside.

My sis got her Swift done with S embossed and very nice double stitched. I think it was under 3K,shop is somewhere at Sunway Industry area.

Tks for your feedback bro. At least now I don't feel so bad having paid full price, cos my alloy wheels and leather covers alone could cost $10K. Anyway you still got a good deal with 5year free service.

Glenmarie SC fully book for June. Manage to get a slot on 30th June for my 10k km service   

Some info to share. The person was saying there is buffer for the mileage before it affects warranty:

Mileage: plus 500km
Month: plus 2 weeks

So there is some allowance for us if we cannot make it for the service time.

Anyone know whether it's easy to get 408 plate number?

Mentally, I always think Total is better. Reality, they are the same, at least what i feel la. Sifus please dont frame me.
Been using Pretronas since 20k km service. Recently I did my 30k km, it cost me RM420, after privillage card discount. Pretonas lube.

Guys, remember to flash your privillage card. My recent visit was asking for the card before proceed to discount.

normally they will send 2 months from the date you take your car from the showroom. or earlier... but the standard time given is 2 months.

My coolant is at the minimum level now, last service on Feb, next schedule end July.
I noticed my coolant level cant last for 6 months for service interval, last time also same. When servicing, SC will topup to the max level, but after 4 months, it dropped to the minimum level. Is this normal?

I bought batt water to top up the coolant, still got alot left over batt water. How long can the batt water be kept?

Now, You remove the power cable first and then use long type screwdriver at point 1 if you don't has star screwdriver on hand (Hints: short type screwdriver very difficult to turn the screw)



Me, I remove the star screw first (point 2) so I can take down entire black housing. I can easily remove screw at point 1.
After you remove screw at point 1, you will see the two clip (next to the screw) at each point 2, "un-clip" it



Then, you can take out the bulb mounting, like picture below



If you want take out the bulbs, don't use hand, use masking tape. Don't press on top to the bulb directly (to avoid break). Use tape wrap on top of each bulbs, gentle pull it left-right until it loose. like picture below

looks like T20 bulbs to me

they are 1 size bigger than the interior bulbs?

powerbulbs/autobulbs says T10 too

W5W = T10
