hi guys, would like some feedback on Peugeot services. Im considering getting 408 second hand car by trade in my old saga flx 2013.
1. maintenance cost (engine oil, oil filter, air filter, etc) 2. parts replacement price in the case of fault/accident 3. any known issues with 408? gearbox still problematic? |

QUOTE(SKYjack @ Jun 23 2016, 06:49 AM) It's a big leap in performance from Saga to 408NA or 408THP. What you must remember is higher the need for performance, higher the maintenance cost. But of course the driving experience derived, is at a higher level! Thanks for the sharing........1.Regular maintenance: oil/oil filter/labour-$330. Long term maintenance cost on THP is slightly higher than NA. 2.Higher than Proton but comparable to most Jap cars 3.Gb on THP is Aisin,sliky smooth, one of the most reliable on contis, mine on 5th year & no issues.More than 15,000 postings in the 408thread,not a single complaint on this Gb! Gb on NA is AT6,minor jerks but reliable.  So i'm just standby around 1k to 2k per year as maintenance budget will do............ Ok..... tomorrow onward will start go sourcing for 408 and test drive........ yuhoooooooooooooo... This post has been edited by Fongtology: Jun 24 2016, 09:01 PM |

Let the kitty build up, that'll come handy for wear & tear item on long run! Thanks boss.......Number of Peugeot workshops in Klang Valley now. DON'T go to Peugeot Service Centre, expensive & not always a satisfactory job! Appreciate all of your advise......... Looking forward to become one of the 408 owner...... haha.... |
