Hi St.Christopher
jfcheong & lowpro have given you great advice.

You have made a good choice which you will enjoy more & more, as you get to know the 408T better. The technology in this car makes it worth much more than it actually cost. The present offers make it a fantastic bargain,don't miss!

If you have any quires,don't worry bro, just shoot, and we'll give you a hand.By now we've got
this babe wrapped around our fingers. Good luck and welcome to the group bro. icon_rolleyes.gif

As regards to the cut line,I've not seen it before and I don't think anyone has. That's why no one has replied. The SA is giving you b/s! My car on 3rd year, no line as appeared. Keep pushing. They are obliged to fix it!

Thanks. Today is my 4th letter sent to Nasim. I will follow up until the fix it. Quite a number of cosmetic defects which i think sa missed since they gave me high discount.

But driving the car a pleasure. Feel very confident compared to Rush smile.gif

I dont think so our batch have such cut line.

To be fair, the 408 has been modified quite a fair bit. For example, rear fog lamp, if you buy before Mar 2013, it only have one side, left only. Now everyone got both side.

Anyway, you ask the SA, after a few day of sun shine and the cut line come out? You tell him we have almost 200 member here, more than 1 year and above, tak da also.

Frankly, they also could added the cut line for the airbag to deploy.

Thanks. My friend collected his car no cut line. Also my cut line is not complete. Should have bought at Nasim. But had extra discount feom dealer.

Hi Eusened,

I bought my Peugeot 408T at Nov 2014 and i still have only 1 rear fog lamp.

Does this mean my car is older than Mar 2013?

Hope someone can advise.

Thanks.

Hi Bro

I also bought recently. Will check mine and report tomorrow. However when i last enquired only TE comes with 2 fog lights. TS and TL only 1. Can any TS or TL owners confirm this.

That line is for the airbag that's installed in the dash. The line should really be on the opposite side and I've never seen any other car with similar configuration having any line appearing, even on other makes. This is clearly a defective dashboard. I personally think the line was cut too deep during the manufacturing process so its showing on the other side. You should request for a new dash.

Thanks. Though initially SA said it is due to the car in the sun - I have yet to park in the sun. Lion always in the cool place. Told SA to raise a claim.

I think Newbie's explanation is exactly the case. It is  the outline of the airbag box which should not appear on the top covering. Certainly a manufacturing defect. They have no choice but to fix it for you!

First SA said it ia normal. Now has put in for warranty claim.

Thanks a lot

A) Front tyres need balancing.
B) Need wheel alignment.

The left pull is common on Pugs. There's still a lot of ppl running with this issue. You can solve it, but only at a skillful wheel alignment shop. I've solved mine. 

Looks like your wife's better driver than you la,since she's able to highlight the left pull.....hehehe! biggrin.gif
Well done,follow up everyweek! thumbup.gif

HEHEHE.......Wife butter fingers but I was holding steering very steady.....okokok...she is a more experienced driver :-)


Surprisingly I got a call from a friend who got the car a few days ago...he was getting vibration at the same speed around 110. Wonder if it is computerized tuning and a manufacturing error.

Pulling left is the characteristic of the car... Try high speed balancing... Your vibrate might due to balancing

Thanks Bro. Will sent to CSL to do balancing. If still same prob may send it elsewhere

Congrats bro.
Normally at Glenmarie u can ask the SA to give other choices also. They wont want to miss your tint business cause they get commission also. But get a good one. Really helps. Consider Raytech, Huper Optik, 3M wingard, Llumar, vkool among good quality brands. Compare prices and quality.

Usually I wont take the deal from SA, as they earn commission from that.
Since they got commission, hence ur installation price could be higher (commission charged to ur cost).

Take comparison at your own before making any deal.
Cheers.. enjoy your new lion  smile.gif

Hi bro. U are right.

Hi all,

Not too sure if anyone can give some advise.

I have had vibration issues with my 408 since day 1 and though i have sent it in to Puchong SC twice, i still can feel it... have changed driveshaft, brake disc and done balancing all in the same SC.

Hopefully someone can advise.

Thanks.

When the vibration happens bro?
