Guys,

My friend workshop recommend to use Shell or Castrol 5W 30 fully synthetic oil as they don't have Mobil brand.

Is it suitable for  my Y2016 408 2.0 ?
Thanks.

Hmm.... you mean to say your owner manual does not specify one of the following Peugeot oil specs:
From which country is your 408 assembled/manuactured if it is not from Europe?

So far so good, hehehe. I frequent travel highway a lot, can really feel the power. Of course not much on the higher end of rpm, to achieve this our turbo need to chg also. Im so far happy with what I have.
My only mistake is I didnt start to do everything from Bros Auto, instead I started at different workshop. So my advice is, start from scratch with Bros Auto, as they can guide u better based on yr needs.
Last dyno done early this year, I clocked about 198hp at the crank

Yes bro, i did custom open pod as well. I did with the Bros Auto, very clean job they did. But this kit I think u must preorder, selling like hot cake
Next thinking of upgrading exhaust system as well

Sorry for the delayed reply bro, been away
So far done, downpipe+open pod+remap+full decarb.
I dont consider decarb as a mod la, it shud be a mandatory maintenance for our pug.
Next upgrade will be turbo upgrade, probably after i upgrade the exhaust system.

saw one youtubers upgraded his 408 with new bigger Turbo kit, all new exhaust system, upgrade cold air intake with box etc and remap. yes, it improves a lot on Torque, HP, but it is very pricey for all sets. not sure if it is worth it to considering the 2nd price of Peugeot

This. I rather maintain it to be in good condition than mod. If want mod, better take brand new cars with 250-ish hp starting

Guys, I need your help on recommending which garage to go when comparing Bros Auto Kota Damansara and Renaultech. Can I know which garage is better in diagnosting intermittent fault and who offer more reasonable charges on repair cost. Please do PM me if you don't want to disclose the recommendation publicly.

Lately my 1.6T has very rough idle with almost no respond on throttle upon cold start. The car runs fine after a few minutes. the CEL throw in fault code with misfire at cylinder 2 and 4, so I replace spark plug and interchange the ignition coil. Cleared the code.

In the next cold start it struggle with the same symtom without CEL. The CEL appeared again few days later with low fuel pressure and stuck open injector at cylinder 4. Cleared the code and this time it shows only low fuel pressure. The car still struggle at cold start at the moment  I believe it's time to let the professional perfom the diagnose and repair.

Your input is ver much appreciated.

Thanks for your reply. I also come across Peugeot & Citroen Specialist Workshop located in USJ. Looks like a lot of good review.

High pressure fuel pump will be the last I suspect due to it was replaced during the last recall at 30k+ km. Now my mileage clock at 68k km. Another reason I wish to rule out hpfp is due to the car runs fine when the engine is warm. Did a live data from diagbox using ACTIA the fuel pressure is really low (8 bar) when first start in the morning. It keep at this value until I restart the car. Pressure will be at 50-99 after restarting the car.

I'm thinking if resetting ECU will work. I have attempted to reset the ECU but unable to do it as one of the condition to reset ecu is one will need to connect the device to battery directly which I'm not sure how to do it (I have battery clamp comes with ACTIA but just can't figure how to connect).

Thank you very much for informing me about that. Hpfp break down in just over 30k km is indeed unbearable Yes the symptom is rpm up and down during cold start after the car rest overnight, feels like misfiring. Guess I have to open up and accept that is Hpfp is the culprit then.

Battery charge or Electrical supply faulty error message popped out again huhu...😭😭

So far any member kena this before?
Now I was wondering whether should change to new unit?

Mine 2.0 already hit mileage of 200k km

Kena before back in 2019. That time dunno its alternator problem, drove until the car stalled at the road side.

Problem suddenly fixed by itself not sure how. It has some very very minor jerk now almost unnoticeable unlike the time i posted jerk very bad..

Feel like might be the gearbox mounting
