QUOTE(SKYjack @ Dec 1 2015, 07:30 PM) Tks for your feedback bro. I too never had the need to rev during neutral, a bit confused why anyone would want to. Redline cut off is as you know to prevent cooking the Prince! Anyway, love my Lion too much to stress her that much! Ok. I have tried it. Cant go pass 4000rpm. To be exact, it is around 3800-3900rpm......

Just had my gear knob changed last Saturday at Glenmarie, under warranty. No question ask, just bring the broken one to the counter, they give u a replacement unit. They claimed that those earlier version had product/material fault which caused the whole thing to just break easily.

Hi guys, im sending my car for 60,000km major service next week, thinking of which service centre is recommended? All this while been sending my car to Chan Sow Lin for servicing, thinking of trying another centre might get better experience. Guess got to change my brake pad too (current mileage 54,000km), will my warranty void if i change it outside instead of Peugeot Service Centre? Need advise from all Sifu, thanks!!

Hi Guys
I gave my car for service last Saturday and still in Glenmarie because of the issue I informed you guys before. I called them today to ask for status. It seems the main technician said the continuous pull back is due to engine ECU and waiting for approval to be replaced.
Also, the items are recalled - Temp Sensor and Water pump. Getting worried the minute they touch this parts other issues will crop up.
Just keeping you guys informed in case you have similar problem

QUOTE(SKYjack @ Dec 1 2015, 01:24 AM) Read Tan's initial posting carefully before making assumptions! It's his choice to tow! is not i want to tow the car , coz when i started the engine , come out warning sign that engine fault repair needed , and the car engine jerking can't drive.

The fuel meter is extremely accurate, when it red and blink is only have 3-4 liter ... Not good at for the fuel pump.... So i top up as soon reach 1/3 , about 10 liter....
Typical Japanese car , when fuel meter blink is 10 liter...i own 3 ex Japanese car all same... my advise when reach 1/3 , go top up asap if possible.

I think the turbo blow off valve , letting the extra pressure out when not in gear....

Pump heat up, kong early lor burnout.... that why at 1/3 is safest choice ....like japanese car
