Be careful with that heart string, once pull may not let go. If you decide against Pug, make sure you don't come back here again, there are many poison ivy here laugh.gif Better be sure, there are more and more Pugs on the road, reminds you all the time what you are missing brows.gif

regarding the Peugeot warranty issue, DJ may ji share her experience, as i know she is driving a 308T.
Recently her car breakdown due to "PH" pump problem, sc had replace the pum but request her to pay rm2k of it.
the question is her car only 3 years old and still under warranty. y still need to pay?
what the care line reply her is, because this is second time the car change the pump, after change is no more warranty on that part.
my question is????????????????????????????????????????????? what is that? then 5 years warranty is what?
and she already decide going to pay rm2k to take back her car.

Just a few question la before we react to this la.

Is her car under a 5 years warranty? Just in case, since already 3 years ago.
Usually, warranty is based on the purchasing date, not any date or void after a part been changed under warranty.

I hope it is not listed as a wear and tear part and also, 5 years warranty doesn't cover everything under the hood.
Better clarify.

Good point. 5 year warranty started about 2 years ago. If not mistaken it started with launch of 408/508

yes you are right! i tot all peugeot come with 5 years warranty
just confirmed her 308 is 3 years warranty
the argument is change the pump few month before, then the bump spoil again but had over the car warranty period.
her car really a lot problem within this 3 years, already claim for rm20k++ on part replacement within the warranty period sweat.gif

the thing is this; whether a part is replaced under warranty or purchased if the car is out of warranty or it is not a warrantable part, it comes with a 1 year (if i am not wrong) warranty (unless it is considered a wear and tear part like brake pads, wiper blades, bulbs etc.).

this is for the part itself. so the next question is this, did she contact the careline (clic)?

another thing with regards to parts considered wear and tear, if it breaks or wears off unusually quick, it should be given due consideration by the warranty team and i think those guys are pretty decent and reasonable in hq as long as the matter has been brought up in full detail to them by the clic team, hence the importance for customers to tell the full story to the clic team when in discussion.

by the way, there are also many owners who fabricate stories. i know this for a fact as i have personally told one or two off when i was running clic before... so, the customer is not always right wink.gif sorry for digressing a bit here.

yalor, the NA also good lah. just fuel consumption is not as good as turbo only. it is certainly not slow as i have mentioned in one of my posts earlier and has a slightly more comfortable ride. though at crazy speeds, one would prefer the firmer sprung turbo. the funny thing about the NA is this, even though the steering is hydraulic as opposed to the turbo's electric power steering, it is over assisted and lighter than the turbo's. this is probably due to the reasoning that the 408 NA is designed more for easy and comfortable driving = softer suspension and lighter steering for city driving. so, they both have their merits. just depending on your preference.

Bro, steering and feedback on the 408t has raised the bar to another level. My bro bought 328i M-sport,top of the line in 3 series, 2months ago. Even this car's steering and feel can't match the 408t's. After several round table beers,my bro finally conceded the Bimers steering feel & feedback is not as good!

He will always quickly turn the discussion to power. Of course on power his will chew the Pug and spit out with no effort....hehehe!

I tested the Passat & Jetta, not as good also!
