QUOTE(SKYjack @ Oct 27 2014, 10:49 AM) You can have the gb diagnosed by a independent gb specialist. Do not send it for repair with them,you'll lose Peugeot warranty. This just for your info. I don't have the contact,but there are a few in Klang Valley. Hi SKYjack and all,As regards to waiting, I can understand your frustration. The problem is not entirely due to Nasa, the damn French are very sticky and difficult. They want every document to be right before approval......bloody frogies! On your part,hold your temper,be patient but persistent! It helps to get Nasa staff on your side! FYI. Finally I able to claim my noisy gearbox and make replacement last week, after replace next day cannot start due to starter wiring did not tighten, call SC to send techs to fix . This gearbox issue been dragging 1 year and 3 months ago. I had been harsh all the way towards the SC and CLIC staff. 45 email conversations with Clic, and reported at KPDNKK at January 2015. Prepare to go for Tribunal court for claim if they did not approve the replacement. Now well known at Penang Georgetown SC. Here is my bad experience towards my lion:( My 1st email to Clic) I had reported my gearbox noise issue when I make 2500km service on March 2014. I am been told that my case will be follow up, unfortunately the 1st report only sent to technical platform at May 2014 after I make numerous of call to service center manager. July 2014 I been told to leave my car a week for troubleshooting and collecting data that needed from HQ. They said will call me when HQ replied to them , after month and month waiting, I make numerous call to Careline. Finally on September 2014 I get a called from service center said that my car gearbox noise is normal and stated that they cannot do anything about it. The technical person who troubleshoot my car and bring me along for test drive stated clearly that my car gearbox noise are abnormal compare to other car. How come HQ said is NORMAL ? REFUSED TO FIXED? After that I make numerous call again to care-line, till I sent out my 1st email to CLIC on November 2014. Since I get my car I had claim : 1) Front both disc brake. ( Vibrate and have sound when brake at high speed) 2) Both Side triangle rubber cover 3) Battery ( died after 6 months) tow back to SC 4) Gearbox Note: Late 3 months for 10K service on September ( should be done on June 2014). Which I told the SC manager they need to take the responsibility for the delay cause I will not waste money to maintain defect car.(The manager advise me to do 10K cause she scare will void my warranty). After replacement straight do 20K service, 6 months since September 2014 with 14k mileage only. |

QUOTE(David_78 @ Mar 25 2015, 03:15 PM) I wonder can we request SC to reflash our 408T with latest 308 T ECU tunning, lost 10bhp but smoother gear change..... Latest 308 T9 comes with upgraded AT..else, blip the throttle...try it... Our 408T gear change at 3K rpm, try it bro..push it to 3K to 3.2K rpm range , release the throttle for a split sec or reduce the throttling. Then gear will change to higher or lower. Then press the throttle agian... Smooth changing... take some practice to make it perfect. |

My 408 is 2 ½ years and now the aircon has a musty smell when I turn it on – The smell is quiet strong and usually gets less after a while. Anyone experience this ? if yes how was it fixed? Appreciate your suggestions |

Yesterday I kissed a wira. The car in front of him made a emergency break. My driver's side fender is dislocated and banded. I have scratches on the door side as well. Do you think its better to repair at a workshop or sent to Peugeot to claim insurance. Its not even 1 month yet

All this have to imported, so order early n wait for 2 weeks while driving the car... The boots cover is 3K, the back light is 2K plus , bars another 2k plus, 1 ks for the bumper 10K for parts and 2 k for labours. Since is claim other parties dont cares This post has been edited by David_78: Mar 26 2015, 01:09 PM |

Yes I did the police report today. I wanted some views from those who already had the trouble after accidents.go workshop you know quote for repair, if 1+k suggest u fork out urself n repair it. If more then claim insurance ... Pigot SC parts are very expensive , last time a van kiss my lion 2 week car... 12K repair bills i claim the van la I already expect the parts would be expensive. If anyone here has the inventory for parts list would be helpful. Before I bought the car, I asked the salesman for this, he said it can be arranged. But it never happened. I think its good since the insurance going to bear the hefty sums for parts replacement. |

Not included the fender bender, broken front grille, broken light bracket & no plate.Since my NCD is 0%. insurans & roadtax was borne by the SC when I purchase the car, i think its better t claim insurans But its still looks like a minor repair, at the moment i can still drive the car without a glitch. Anyone know which is the best SC for easiest and fastest to process this kind of repairs? |

One of the better SC seri kembangan , contact her. ask the details you need to submit to them.
Sutha A/P Mahenthiran <sutha@naza.com.my> Better claim insurance then, availability parts could be sticky issues, could take 2-3 weeks, As long you can drive it without danger... drive it. But the puchong SC is the main store where they keep their spare parts stock...I will going there next monday for 10K service. According to them they are using TOTAL engine oil. Not petronas engine oil as other SC Rumour la, 308 running lack of power with petronas synthium , So i stick with TOTAL. This post has been edited by David_78: Mar 27 2015, 04:20 PM |
