If you put the vehicle on the dynamometer, I think you should be able to see the torque yields between 4k to 4.5k rpm. Red line is at 6k rpm, if the max torque remains flat up to 6k, depending on the trend of the torque drops, the max hp should be between 7k to 8k rpm but the fact is max hp occurs at around 6k rpm.

Coating is like applying lip gloss to your car paint, and of course with 9H hardness can reduce stone chipping.
my car coating done during the 1st month of ownership. But of course i always send my car back to the shop for car wash (purchase own Meguairs car shampoo), sometimes wash at roadside.

My car is 2 years 5 months old, still looking glossy and new!

i read there was a compressor recall in china too. premature failure like what we're experiencing now.

Here's one very unhappy Ford Focus owner who claims his 2&1/2 year ownership a traumatic experience. I can understand, as there seems to be no solution to the problem. I'm on the 4th year,my gb is smooth and lovely roar from the engine. What a great choice this car is,simply love this Lion!

Yes bro, most ppl don't know the improvement brought on this engine. They have no clue how reliable this Prince/gb combo is. They bash this engine out of their own ignorance, based on outdated information from the old engines!

The new Prince fitted on the facelift Peugeots are even better with further refinements.

That one later will totally shrink in time.
Mine I removed all the junk rubber and fill it with black silicon instead. Use some masking tape to make it look nice and straight

But if yours under warranty better get it changed cos it is not wear and tear parts, its non moving parts, I'm sure get the warranty.

Tried calling care line to check Balakong SC. Balakong SC also full and pushing work away. Tell me to check with Puchong. I told them to check for me then get back to me. Is this peak period for SC? I can't imagine it is like this all the time and there is no plan to open more SC. What is the point of care line if there are no available SC? I even towed my car to SC before and got turned back.
I really need my car for CNY, so do many other owners. So what is the solution? Any Peugeot employee can comment?

tried geotauto PJ ? or lucifal
