Problem? Plenty!

I bought mine used (2012 model with full service history) last year (not even a year owning it) and already had to do the following:

1. ABS sensors - 2 sides claimed under warranty.
2. Water temp sensor - claimed under warranty.
3. High pressure fuel pump - can't claim under extended warranty because previous owner exceeded service interval by 4000km. Car was left at the dealer for about a year with regular service. Cost for pump at Naza is RM 2.9K excluding GST. WTF!?!?

I called few friends in the spare parts business and got few quotes ranging from RM 900 to RM 1200 excluding GST and labour.

I decided to try something else. Put injector cleaner into the fuel tank and behold car back in action again. CE light gone and power is back. Will put another bottle tonight.

Just now, CE light came back. WTF!?!? Plug OBD reader and found the following:

P1338, P1340 indicating misfiring for cylinder 2 and 4. Google and found a solution. Replace coil pack. Not sure how much here but in UK, it is GBP 20 each. Since today is a Sunday, I did the following:

1. Unplug coil pack for cylinders 2 and 4 and spray some circuit cleaner (alcohol based).

2. Plug back and behold, no more CE light. Power also back. Will need to test later.

My advice?

Please invest in a good OBD reader and have friends in the spare parts business b4 buying it. If have kaki in the halfcut business even better. More cheap parts.

Now, dealer only take RM 50K or below for 2012 Peugeot 3008.
