Hi all,

What is your experience with other tyre brands besides conti?
Do you have mix brands or all four same brands?

Thanks
*
Stock conti less grip, hard, noisy. New Michelin ps3 soft, more grip, but costs 520/piece.

There's a guy in the 208 group in FB, he delivers and installs batteries. Nicky Tan, not sure if this is an option for you.

Is there a way to make our trunk pops up like the 508, probably at minimal cost?

I have, I don't think it's comparable. Sometime back I tested RON 95 of different fuel. Engine performance on BHP appeared best. Although nearest PETRONAS station is only 2km, i still drive to BHP station which is 10km away, to fill up.

Alright, thanks for the feedback.

Bravo! Appreciate of your advice!

Indeed, i ask 10 ppl around me about peugeot car...out of 10 say no... doh.gif

May I share my xperience.

I used to drive proton - no problems at all, just normal service, probably minor repairs, never spent a night in SC. I drove Wira for 10 years, never enjoyed the driving. Got into 3 accidents due to no ABS, bad braking system.

Then I upgraded to Sentra 1.8, no major problems, drove for 9 years. Never spent a night in SC. Better driving experience, but I still hated to drive it. Year 9, suspension dying, sold it off.

Now I am with 408T, enjoying every minute off driving. Spent some nights in SC. Changed some major parts under waranty. Changed denso compressor outside after 3 years.

Next car, I would probably buy 408 again, but maybe prereg. You know they are selling prereg 408T for about 86k, griffe about 91k. With the savings, no need to talk about resale value, no need to talk about maintenance costs wink.gif *fingers crossed*

I think for other conti, you will prolly have more or less similar feedback, unless u get lemon car.

Hope this helps.

My previous car is Vios, very durable and very less problem. Driving experience also not bad, but when talk about the noise isolation...i damn hate. I was like wt* during my 1st day with the car  sweat.gif

When i test drive this lion, i was like wt* too...so quiet compare to my vios  doh.gif  Conti car really good at it.
Hopefully my LION wont have to Spend some nights in SC so much *fingers crossed*

Quiet probably due to your new tyres. Wait till they get harder wink.gif I don't want to spend more for noise insulation, so I just blast my radio wink.gif

Front got sound when going through hump, possible from the absorber?
Any idea whats the causes and cost for repair?

I got this for quite some time now, never bother to check with sc as I usually send service on Sat, they don't fix anything on Sat.

Let me know the outcome for your case, thanks.

Does anyone know where can I get a longer/more powerful lug nut wrench for 208 stock wheel? The standard wrench that came with it was too short, I could only get 1 nut out. Is it the same size as 408T?

Ace hardware?

Thanks.

That's too low. Bump it up to 3K.

My premium if rm400-450 for rm3k sum insured. Even at rm3k, I couldn't get back 3m tint, I had to take raytech instead, otherwise I would need to pay more to top up.

Can post contact details? My windscreen is chipped, not sure can claim! I'm sure they can advise me.

Btw is spare part promo by Nassim still on? Think I'll buy hpfp & store it. Although mine is working well, thought I'll just buy it since the price is lower than spare part shop price. My car will start 6th year in 3months, can't bank on hpfp to perform well for ever!

I think he meant to depress the button on the wiper lever (right) for a few seconds.
