QUOTE(giko @ Aug 15 2014, 09:13 PM) When I plugged in a 2GB thumb drive into the car's usb, the player kept on loading & loading but didn't play the mp3's. However when I used a 250MB thumb drive, it played the songs on the drive! What's the biggest thumb drive recognised by the car's player? Nowadays the smallest drive that I can find is 8GB - how lah?  I am using 32GB, no issue at all

QUOTE(SKYjack @ Aug 19 2014, 06:13 PM) You want your Lion to bite a bit more la.....hehehe  enjoy  ! How about remap the ECU, 200hp/275nm. You'll be Lion King among us. Only problem is void warranty! Coz i feel more control while shifting gear manually, not only for power performance, for controlling also, or smoothness. I ady feel like hand itchy wanna remap jor.. haha, dont tempt me. Just claimed water pump last week, claiming another side mirror motor, seems like i need to stick to the warranty till 5th year.

QUOTE(enochtan3668 @ Aug 20 2014, 01:22 PM) If high top-up volume is required, isn't it better to top-up with coolant-water mix cause otherwise may result in over dilution of original coolant? Yes. Over topup with battery water will dilution ur coolant. The ultimate solution is send ur car for checkup.

QUOTE(Hannibal @ Aug 25 2014, 09:57 AM) I’m in the same shoe with vknight, been following this thread for almost a year and finally made my booking for Peugeot 408T due to the attractive promotion.  The reason of the lower price is because there is now an additional 408T model (they call it standard spec) with difference such as the replacement of leather seat with fabric seat, no Euro kit, no Melbourne series rim etc. I went with the standard model (RM10k cheaper) as I find fabric seat to be more comfortable than the leather seat. Just wondering, anyone install the Euro Kit outside market? Any price indication and recommendation of shops? It’s also a pity I’m stuck with the 2.0 variance rim, find it very dull looking. I’ve seen some bad ownership experience with 408 so I am aware getting a Peugeot sounds like a big bet. Should do some praying before getting my ride. Still, I agreed the car is a poison to drive. I was instantly poisoned by the 308T when I first test drove it 3 years ago…  I’m glad I’m settling down with 408 which is more comfortable and reliable. Hope I’m right! Looking forward to my lion!  Look for ryujinx if you keen on the EuroKit

QUOTE(Hannibal @ Aug 25 2014, 11:50 PM) Am interested, pm price please? Do I need the spacer as I thought mine should come with it right? Also, is it possible to trade in my new rim with outside tyre shop then ask them to fit in yours? I dont recommend to trade in your ori rim to tyre shop, as they provide low value only. Maybe you can consider to keep for future use.

QUOTE(skyblu3 @ Aug 27 2014, 10:49 AM) Eh! Is the Temperature Sensor on the 408s are still an issue? Very problematic my friend said. His 408 temp sensor, changed twice...still problem!!!! How come this sensor not reliable one?  I believe the temp sensor is problematic. Few members here claimed before. Mine also giving problem. My temp used to be always 90'c chun chun, but now running between 80'c and 90'c, complaint to SC, SC reply this is ok as long as not over 90'c. Refuse to change for me. Will cont monitor this and see how is it.

QUOTE(EP6CDTM @ Aug 29 2014, 09:51 AM) battery nowadays can barely last 1.5yrs anything after 365 days, you're lucky already  Anythg more than 365 days is unlucky. Dead within 365 days is lucky coz under warranty
