Bought from Kota Damansara Peugeot showroom. It was the test drive unit - 6 months old. I guess some members here have driven the car before biggrin.gif Bought for 100k excluding insurance and tinting. 5 years warranty on parts only.

I signed the manual and warranty booklet, but the name written there is the dealership's name. The SA told me that that is all I need to do, for warranty to be transferred to me. Can anyone please share your knowledge on this?

Thanks!

that car? Been molested by me tongue.gif

Good to see NA ownership increasing. At 95K it is a fantastic buy. I'm trying to get brother in law interested. He's waiting for the new Altis. Unfortunately Toyota is such a strong brand name,I don't think I'm having much success! I let him drive my Lion. He drives so boring, no wonder he likes Toyota!

Hi. You can try to create a 1 new folder in the pen drive and then save all the mp3 file into it.
If problem still persist, save few songs only and then try again.
*
My folder structure just like that:

Root
-Chinese (folder)
--songs
...
-English (folder)
--songs
....

Just 2 folders. sad.gif

Your folder structure looks no problem. You has another pen drive than 32GB ? 8GB for example

Hi guys.. Good day!..
happy to join the lions..

pls clarify my queries..

1) I have problem with battery in my 3rd month after i gt the car..The SC said, its a normal
issue for 408, and then they changed to delta battery.
  - Do you guys experiencing the same?

2) The door locker.
I got the same reply. Normal for 408. Is it?

3) Horn
My lion is experiencing problem with the horn. Gonna meet the sc on my next service.

Kindly advise..
*
Battery yes, most of us here got our 1st battery replaced. LOL.

Door locker? It doesnt lock? Please specific. I know that if battery kong, you are unable to lock your door.

Horn is a rare issue in this forum. None of us complain our horns here tongue.gif Only my friends were shouting at me when I was playful and horn them.

About the door lock, I am still not very understand what you are saying. So far I dont find any mysterious noise with my doors, or maybe my ignorance level quite high tongue.gif

I dont find any of my brake caliper turning yellow. But the 2 front wheels are know to have more brake dust due to the ceramic brake pads.

hmm.. about the brake..
when i try to brake, i feel the car is vibrating.. SA said it might be the abs or the disk might
have problem. But he advised me to do the alignment first.
*
From my knowledge, mis-alignment will not cause your car vibrate la, maybe swing left and right.
Usually if vibrate, most of the time is the brake pad or brake disc is uneven / crooked.

QUOTE(chenglong @ Dec 23 2013, 02:28 PM)
This yellowish caliper is not the front of both, it is rear one.... weird  hmm.gif

Other thins is, normally I wash my car every Saturday morning (car in cold condition). After wash it, no drive it until Monday.
Morning want to drive it out from car porch, I shift to reverse gear and then release handbrake (not press brake at all). my car not move at all due to brake still "hold" . So I press more gas and then I heard louder "pang" from rear.
Many time this sound can be heard after wash and leave it certain time.

SC said this is normal... anyone has smiler problem ?
*
I advise to bring your car and request the SC to replace / claim warranty for your brake caliper. If they refuse, call care line and request for it. That is consumers' rights and we are not buying 'potong'. tongue.gif

It seems a bit funny. Anyway, you should step on your brake, change gear and let go handbrake.
Maybe it is the safety feature which I will never find out. When my car is stagnant, I will always press my brake and then do the following.

I at the SC now. I had shown the photo to SA about this problem too, he said if bulb can light up then no problem, not need to replace it. cry.gif

Just ask you, you rear have rattle noise when driving ? I suspect that it come from 3rd brake light..

Bro, every SC has different set of people, including attitude. My 5 cents is not to compare each other.

Kota Damansara SC will only act when I am jumping in front of them. LOL. So yeah, "people management".

Well, it is because a French product supports by Mahresian. My 2 cents, ignore the fools and continue enjoy our car. I am still trying to get attention from Peugeot, France. LOL.

I will turn off everything before turning of the engine.

Reason being: it will drain more battery when you start your car while everything is on. including radio

The lion is very the powderful. You drive it slowly, you will see your petrol vaporized. But, if you make it run faster than a leopard, you feel it worth every single drop of your petrol tongue.gif

I come back from tapah to serdang area, only spent 1/4 tank. With 3 person in the car and average speed at 100kmh

Hi Jf Cheong,

Please include me in the list,
Im now a official 408 NA owner!

Btw hows the fuel consumption so far for other NA owners?

So far I pumped 100 for full tank I manage to make only 400Km
I am very light footed driver and the road was clear during chinese new year.
Is that very high?
*
1.6T will be able to reach 500km per full tank when road is clear.
You need to drive above 100km/h all time to feel the worth of your petrol tongue.gif

correct me if I am wrong. Dont frame me.

Hello Guys,

I noticed for a few days already that my car is starting to jerk a little. When im driving it, and the cars shift up or down, it tends to jerk a little. Never notice this when i first got the car. This thing happen after i played with the manual mode couple of nights ago.

Also, do u feel your car engine vibrates when u leave it on idle??? When i start my engine, still in P or N, i can feel a certain vibration or beat from the engine. Quite hard to explain. Its like a heart beat, or put it more negatively, is like the vibration/sound when a engine is going to mati. Please advise all sifus....

Thank you very much.
*
maybe you got a real lion. LOL, heart beat. tongue.gif

My car also quiet and smooth when idle. Leaving the cooling fan's noise I meant.
