bros,
my car now into 5th year and after 90k service, the engine now got chit chit sound. like got rat inside. Haha. went to glenmarie sc to check and have to change valve cover and intake pipe. Its not cover under EWP. funny thing is the sound came only after my service and i check back, the intake pipe was changed under the enhancement package.
*
Used to have that sound. Checked with SC, said valve cover also. SC told me can claim EWP, but those piping need to pay which cost around Rm800.

But after I send in my car to fix the aircon cooling coil together with enhancement program. The sound is gone.

So I dont bother it now.

Well, I ordered a white 408 and today went to take a look before the car goes for registration and all that.  1st thing I note is that the front lights do not have black panels like the ones in the car I test drove. But I can live with that.  What irked me was that the front and back bumpers are not of the same shade of white like the body. The body is white but the bumpers are an off white shade. Inside the showroom, the difference can be seen.
Looks like the bumpers were painted locally and they can even get the colour correct.

Anyone with a white car with the colours not exactly the same throughout the car?

The dealer is going to send it for polishing tomorrow and if it still the same, I have the option of rejecting it.
*
If the car ady registered under ur name. U cant reject/ they wont change another car for you.
What you can do is refuse to sign on the collection note, force them to repaint/ touch up/ rectify for you.
Once u signed the collection, thats all. Nthg can do.

No. Car not registered. I told them specifically that I want to see the car first before they register. Besides, I didn't pay any deposit whatsoever so they have nothing from me.

I'm just puzzled/amused that they can sell a car with the paint not matching even if it's not obvious at first look.  Wandering if anyone had similar issue and if the colour of the bumpers deteriorate after a few months and the differences become quite obvious.
*
Then u shall insist change to another car. If they said that is the last unit, proceed to another branch.

Thanks for sharing, it's 16 units in a box, really cheap. Is the size same for 208?

My 208 missing 2, probably stolen.
*
Not sure if it the same size, u can proceed to SC and ask them or try their sample.

Email-ed CLiC, said SC price is Rm3k (windscreen + labour).

WTF

Just got my new 408 e-thp ^^ ..

Very Smooth drive with the quickshift gearbox...just the Auto ECO start stop function abit annoying & uncomfortable for passengers coz jerking when car starting, just on it when im driving alone. 

Still haven't tekan accelerator yet. All my friend told me to wait for mileage to reach 1k km to protect the engine. never rev pass 3000rpm till now.. it is true this will protect the engine or just rumours?

and the preventive maintenance.. any guidance??  rclxms.gif
*
I tot the start stop function can be disable? Not sure, just asking.

There is no break in period needed on our car, not like Japan made.
Just whack nia~ I terus fly 160kmj on the 3rd day of ownership.

Prevention and taking care of ur turbo during ur daily drive, this is how I do:
1) Do not high rev or hard pedal when starting ur car from cold, let the temperature goes up to 90'c warm up a bit before doing do (which dont recommend always hard pedal also)
2) Try to have smooth drive instead of sudden pedal always
3) Before turning off the engine, let ur engine/ turbo cool down a bit by driving slow/ smooth before turning off the ignition. (Eg. After an aggressive, have 2 or 3 km slow drive to cool the temperature before shut down engine)

The extended 7 year warranty is quite useful. Much better than the 3+2 warranty that covered by insurance company.
I claimed below stuff without issue:
- turbo unit + manifold
- Aircon compressor + condenser
- Oil filter housing
Except the turbo need wait for HQ approval, the rest can be settle within one day

Can share your experience in claiming these? e.g. how long did it take? which SC did you go to?
*
These 3 were claimed under extended warranty. After my 5th year warranty.
SC: Skudai Citroen (JB)
1) Turbo
Engine light appear, sent in to check on 01 Jan 18, confirmed turbo unit. Proceed with claim. Took 1 month plus to get approval from HQ. After approval, SC took 3 days to complete the replacement and test. Additional, they even help me to change/ claim the cylinder head cover even I dint complain about it, they found out rosak while they replace turbo.

2) Oil filter housing
Smoke from under chassis while driving, oil leak. Sent in SC and confirm oil filter housing leak, get it replace on the same day

3) Aircon
Rattling sound from engine bay. Sent in and confirmed compressor failure. Get it replace on the same day together with condenser.

The speed and service level is all depends on Service centre, this new SC very good in the speed, everything chop chop settle. While last time the other SC took few days to settle.

wow .. last time i claim aircond compressor but failed to claim condenser .. SC says is still ok .. so no need  to replace.

additional : do you still remember your turbo failure at what mileage ?
*
The claiming is all depends on SC effort. Nasib~

My 408T just clocked 100k last night.

I think my turbo failed quite some times ady, not boosting well and I very long time never hear the turbo sound, just no error message pop.
Until December 2017 I went to Genting finally error message pop, and slight of power lost. That time the mileage should be around 95k, cant rmb correctly.

when it cracked, the turbo sound very loud yo!! so syoik!  brows.gif

but then think back, i still remember when i first get my car, the turbo sound also not so noticable .. so i think is still ok ..
will monitor again and see ..  thumbsup.gif

When my turbo was OK. I can hear it when I depress the pedal after it rev up. But dont know since when I cant hear it anymore, so I think the pressure leak somemore. Until the crack got bigger and bigger, finally the error pop, till I get my turbo replaced. Now the sound and boost is back again.
