Hello~

hi. check in.

Cool!!!! V3 already

Sorry but I would still like to seek clarification regarding the windscreen warranty. Anyone done any windscreen replacement outside and could confirm that Peugeot still retain the warranty?

Check in

Pertamax..!!

Oh wait..

Congrats on V3

wow...so fast V3......nice

I think you ought to go SC best at Glenmarie (cosndiered Nasim HQ) to clarify this, question on warranty preservation is always delicate and we may not be able to give you an answer that makes you sleep sound

Worst come to worst, you may need to talk to bpth your insurer and SC about getting it done at SC where the insurance will pay the damage repairing/replacement cost and since it is done at SC, warranty should be intact

AFAIK, warranty does not cover all wear n tear items, like light bulbs, tyres, etc. But a windscreen with sensors removal and re-installation is not wear and tear....

Speaking of which how was your front windscreen tinting done?, circumventing your rain and light sensor or WAS THERE some sort of sensor removal and re-installation work done?

While we at the issue of warranty void, i seriously wanna know how this thing works. Do they void just the parts and the related parts, or the entire car's warranty?

Example, if someone modify suspensions, then if brakes got problem can claim? If engine got problems can claim? Or they just void those parts that is related to the suspension system??

Coz i find it rather confusing on how they verify the claims. If say someone modify suspension, then engine got probs or gearbox got prob, then SC say cannot claim coz warranty void, i think thats quite shitty right? I mean, what does the suspension has anything to do with the engine??

To be very frank, those you are mentioning are grey area. Some SC will just ignore and proceed to submit claim on behalf of you, but some just being very unreasonable.
My advise is not to do any modification until your warranty is out. Not enjoy the car as it is 1st bro. If not, any modification, you will need to bear the consequences by yourself.

I agree with you. But honestly, shouldnt the warranty void be only related to the parts related to the modify parts? Instead of like the whole car. Hahahahahah. Coz honestly, its really damn stupid if like someone's warranty for engine or gb is void, coz he change suspension or he put some ICE.

I totally agree. But then, due to the dealership, a lot of hassle for them to do special request or special "kam ching".

EP6CDTM reporting in!

what for?

To reserve ur membership

Please let us know your final outcome. I insured my windscreen with Takaful. Anyone knows if Takaful comes under Peugeot's claims panel?

Hi guys.

Anyone know any difference does it make to the car when you off ESP function by pushing the button at dashboard?

I noticed two things though
1. The ESP can only remain off in less than one minute
2. ESP button have no effect when drving in M mode. Not sure if this means that ESP is either always ON or OFF in M mode.

Car 408T

ESP lights on == ESP turned off

I hope u understand what is ESP and the importance of it.

Hhhhhooooo heaaavvvy!

eh bro how much u buy ur car player. where you buy ??

Fine.

I do know what is ESP ok. And its NOT "ESPecially".

Other sports car also have ESP but can be disabled as well but not sure if those car can only disable in only less than 1 minute.

Nevermind. Im asking politely. Was expecting better respond from the so called experienced user here. At least can help to verify if got the same symptom as mine.

Its OK. Dont bother to discuss this issue further. Tq.

hi sharing this just in case you are driving Honda too

https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/3267999

Sorry if i sounded offensive.. pardon me.
I nv try that b4 so i nv comment that. Just to double confirm if u know the button feature.
Cheers

to my surprise, it's already v3

my salesman said to me ESP need to be off when our car is moving slowly on sand, well i've tried out, don't see any significant difference

as the speed over 50km/h, ESP on itself

Hi Guys,

Just wondering, did anyone went for the Peugeot Driving Performance event? I think some of our members went. Any feedback? How was it? Ada drifting??

Congrats for the V3

Show off some add on

My fren shop in kajang and $ 2k

Mind to share the brand?

yeah how bout the brand ???
which part of kajang.

I'm Kurnia and Allianz insurance authorised agent. FYI, change windscreen outside, any windscreen shop CONFIRMED will not affect warranty. If you have any enquiry, kindly PM to me. Thanks

Insurance due next month, got quoted 107k for 2012 turbo.
How u guys think

Tks for the info.

Why not let the SC change the windscreen and claim from whatever inc co the owner has bought the inc from? Saves all the hassle and warranty headache!

Juz renew my insurance.. Insured value 100k..
408t 2013...

2013 insured 100k, while MSIG quoted my 2012 107k

Hi bro jfcheong. Mine also 2012 turbo renew insurance last month rm90k sum insured.

Thanks for the info bro, will try to talk with the ins co.

Yeah better do because over insuring only benefit the insurance co.

Imagine my devastation when I woke up to this

wrecked side mirror

wrecked side mirror pt2

Anyone know how much is it to change the side mirror?
Need advice what to do now. Messaged my SA in Kota Damansara. Not sure if they have stock.

*depressed*

Kena langgar? Pretty bad.
The side mirror motor still ok? If not it cost alot.
Just look at the photo, assume just the cover and mirror only.

Hey bro,
Did you insure your windscreen? I was quoted RM 555.00 for windscreen by AIG. For 2012 408T, they suggest sum insured at RM 108,000

I plan to insure Rm4k for windscreen, premium is Rm600.
I doubt our 408 has such a high second hand value. Lolx
I saw on web, a 2013 408T is selling at Rm86k.
http://m.oto.my/car-for-sale/110913/used-2...full-spec-johor

Guys, I only insured 99k back on 28th Feb thou. LOL.

Thanks bro. Looks like the windscreen premium is ok. Need to revise the sum insured for the car but RM86k sounds a bit low though...

HAHAA.. 86k is the2nd hand RV, definitely not sum insured.

Received

HEY! NOT FAIR! Aku belum dapat!!!!! :'(

Bcoz i paid additional £3...
Lolz

But different packaging from local purchase.
Local purchase, it is packed in a container.

I assume RV and market value to be the same. If RV is $86K,then what's the point in insuring higher? In case of a total write off claim, the Inc Co will consider market value!

This post has been edited by SKYjack: Jun 26 2014, 04:31 PM

The RV at the market and insurance co's market value can never be the same

Thx to all.. Also ordered OSRAM Night Breaker Unlimited H7 from https://www.powerbulbs.com for £19.95 with free gift OSRAM W5W sidelight bulbs.. woo hoo!

Which means they bully us to insure for higher amount. When it comes to pay out by them, the lower figure is used. The Inc Co always use lower of insured value and market value.

Which co u using. Did u ask for $90k coverage or they quote.

According to this report from France----Long live 408!!!

For quite awhile I was wondering 408 model will be retained when new PSA Peugeot Citroen CEO, Carlos Tavares stated in his [Back in the Race] turnaround plan that he wants the Peugeot brand to focus on a smaller range, with its lineup reduced to 16 models by 2018 from 25 now and to 13 models by 2022.

Today French's Les Echos reported the brand(Peugeot) will retain the 108 in the minicar segment; the 208 and 2008 in the subcompact segment; the 301 sedan, 308 hatchback and wagon, the 3008, 408 and the RCZ in the compact segment; and the 508 and 5008 in the mid-sized segment.

The Peugeot spokesman also said the company plans to retain the 4008, crossover which is based on the Mitsubishi ASX.

I was happy when I read this coz obviously 408 is a model that can work and sell wherever they are sold...and happy at the same time , we are the first gen 408 owners. Long live 408!!!

i just get quoted by zurich insurance for my 408t 2013 at comfirm value 90k only.
how did u all think ? for me i,think a bit to low, 1 year lost my car 35k.

Mine bank did it for me bcoz its for loan processing (2nd hand car) and they quoted 90k. Insurance under takaful malaysia.

Normally i will do insurance by myself using Motor Takaful online where i can choose my own sum insured.

Either way, we have the right to choose our own desired sum insured. Can disagree with the ins. co. value quoted. But of course there will be a minimum value set or else some people might as well go for rm10k just to ensure they can renew roadtax at low cost.

When we install this multimedia unit, can we still able to control the volume balance between rear and front speakers?

I find this function on the original player very useful for long distance travel. Set speaker loudest at front so that my kids can sleep better at the rear and i wont fall asleep at front while driving 'alone'.

Eighth Consecutive International Engine of the Year Award for PSA Peugeot Citroën

PARIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 26, 2014--
Regulatory News:

The 16(th) International Engine of the Year Awards were held on 25 June at the 2014 Engine Expo in Stuttgart, Germany. At this latest ceremony, PSA Peugeot Citroën (Paris:UG) won its eighth consecutive Award in the 1.4 to 1.8-litre category.

Refreshing new boldness? what do you think ?

Naza has dropped price of 408t to $115K,this will have an effect on RV. Used 408t,less than a year old(2014 model) is going for $98K.

Taking all this inconsideration, $90K may be right.

As long as you are not intending to sell your car any time soon,don't worry about drop in RV.

Need to renew insurance. Informed by Etiqa, Peugeot 408 2.0 (2013) market value RM86K-87K. What do you think?

Just received call from insurance , they make revise the value of insure sum to 108,000 for Turbo n 90,000 for NA.

108K is a bit high. I would ask for 100K, since new price and RV have dropped!

On 2nd year,I insured my car at 110K,but at that time new price was 129K.

Hey Guys,

I know engine oil got grades and specs. And ours is 5w-30. But do we have grades or specs for ATF?

Thanks.

I still yet to get my bulbs. Why so unfair?

Belum dapat lagi bro?

hari ni baru dapat wei..
LOL

Anybody know where to get rear fog light (right) before? Any idea how much?

oh wells, it took me more than 30 minutes to change the bulbs. Was too gentle to the lion and fear of breaking the lamp.

In the end, give up of gentleness and get it done in 3 minutes =.=

Abit tricky to remove and place back the bracket.
Though not my first time, it took me some times to do that also... y cant they design it simpler.

And the manual ddnt really teach you the right way.
but anyway, why i dont feel like much improvement? Bro, you set your lamp level at 3 or what?

Was told by the French, all the 1st grade engineers get absorbed by Aviation sector. 2nd grade look for jobs outside France. 3rd grade join the Automotive industry. Still bloody damn good for 3rd standard!

still waiting for my bulb.. but a bit scary to read this

Can feel immediate improvement from stock bulb.
Usually i set lamp level at highest.

Btw, what can i do with the free LED bulb?

This post has been edited by jfcheong: Jul 1 2014, 10:29 AM

highest. later the fella in front will rage, LOL.
I keep it as spare. In case the new bulb koyak, i can use the spare to replace for awhile until the new set come.

The free LED doesnt fit to our headlamp. Kaki tak sama. Perhaps interior can fit? Not sure.

After i pasang the new bulb, i did ask my friend to try, i follow behind his car, asked him if it too glare? He said OK, so i just ignore.

Opps, tersilap. I tot you said the old bulb. The free bulb is actually for our 3rd break light. Keep it and see if your 3rd break light needs bulb replacement or not lor.

I am actually thinking to buy NBU for the main light (high beam). LOL!

Guys, by the way, the two below actually only different on their packaging right?

1.NBU H1 (Twin)

2.NBU (Twin Blister)

I am using Philips Crystal Vision. Bought from a person in LYN. Very fast delivery. Not too bad. Quite bright. Might change to Diamond Vision the next Round.

Whats the color temperature

Diamond version is 5000k. At the borderline of JPJ & PDRM to kacao you.

FYI
There is no law to prohibit white bulb, no matter what temperature. As long as not HID.

Crystal Vision 4300k. Diamond is 5000k.

But i read somewhere the limit is 5000k max. But then some say there is no limit to halogen, only apply to HID. I also dont know la. Just do first la. Then later see how. Plus, if you never change your side lamps, it will still bring some yellow-ness to you white halogen. So i guess pretty much is ok la.

Bro, my advise is not to go full white. I tried with my myvi last time. Full white, damn la la. When rain comes, I become more lala. LOL.

Ya. Agree with eusened. White bulb dont do right during rain and foggy condition.

I am doing the other way round. Yellow bulb with white side lamp.

Agree about the rain part. Thats why i on fog lights during rain. But then again, 4300k - 5000k, i dont think is that "white" also. Thats just what i see ler. Like my 4300k, say is white, but i use already is not that white ler. Couple with the yellow side lamps, makes the white not really white. Maybe coz my headlamp is smoked, so not so obvious the white?? Im just guessing ler. But anyways, thats just humble my opinion from my own experience ler...

Has anyone hit the top speed for the NA before?

Oh man, didn't go to work today and wanted to go out for awhile today, it show engine fault, need repair. Sianzz.

Called insurance for toll service and sending to punching sc. Why me? My car seriously cannot stay under hot sun.

My car is everyday outdoor leh

Hi...

If 408T I can share la...210kmh at LPT KL-Kuantan.

I got 180 the most
Ball not big enough

Woooaaa like this, turbo kalah NA man!

Can tukar bola or not?

This post has been edited by SKYjack: Jul 2 2014, 05:51 PM

i've done 210 on the n/a. then i returned the car to the company.

Sigh, apa salah with my car?

Need big bola for that man. 210. Best I've ever done is 200 on my old 97 Camry.

210? How's that even possible. I'm asking about top speed because best I'm able to hit is 170. It sort of maxes out at that point even though there's still RPMs left. I was able to hit 190 on my old Vios so I'm wondering what's wrong here.
