Yup.
Mine went up to 225km before in Elite highway from seremban to subang.

Cheers...

that was the only one time my meter shot up to 225km. on average, 160km is easily achieved. powerful when overtaking. its already 3.5 years owning this car. i am still very much enjoy driving in it except the look is a bit old now. hehe.

cheers

actually i did coating after 1st year ownership. The coating last about 8 months and almost gone which i went back for a recoating under warranty. The 2nd coating was not done as thorough as the first coating but still it last for about 1 year. The reason for the longer lasting as compared to 1st coating was because i also bought a bottle of mixture coating from the shop. it is meant to keep the coating lasting.

My personal experience with coating. It is troublesome. you will keep on worrying about the coating not lasting, birdshit that is eroding the coating and paint, tiny scratches which you can't wax or polish it off due to warranty issue. The need to wash your car very frequently due to dust gets into coating and stick to it making it hard to wash off(the only way is to wax of polish, but it will void your warranty.)

As a result, i did not go back to the shop as the shop owner was telling me politely that i am already claiming 2 times warranty and i should not be doing that anymore. I was quite unhappy but i guess that is life. you learn from mistakes.

what did i do after that? i just send my car for polish, i wax the car every now and then when i feel like to, scratches are gone, car is superb white after wash and wax. i dont have to worry what i used to worry when the car was coated.

conclusion, save that money for wax, polish and saves your time, saves your energy and brain cells for worrying the coating that will be like this like that.......

what i meant looks old is the design .

Why we love this car? i believe its the power of the engine and the acceleration! cornering, going up hill, overtaking...wow! i can't really complaint more about this car.

heheh

True also. Back to the lasting effect. It is varied due to few other factors such as car is parked at covered carpark mostly, how frequent the car is used(some people just drive to office,park under covered carpark and drive home when sun is set.) My car is almost 85000km now with 3.5years ownership. Car is not parked under covered carpark mostly due to nature of work. Cant afford to wash car on weekly basis. More over car paint is in white.

Once u missed out that weekly wash, dust started to penetrate the coat which makes it hard to wash off. Thay is why i find it troublesome. To keep the coating, i cant wash off the black color on the coating. The water beading effect is there but it looks okd and dirty. To wash it off, i have to press harder when washing which will make the coat gone due to minor scratches when pressure is applied.

Conclusion is troublesone to maintain than before coating.

R u paging me? What otomobile contact?

Not me. I did not bring my car to kajang before.

My 408t's abs and esp light also on immitently lately. Sent to sc for checking and have scheduled for replacement at sc under warranty. Car is 3.5years old. Bro, do send in to sc for checking and claim warranty

Bad news. Both rear left and right bearing are broken. Got wonk wonk soudnwhen deiving at high speed (above 60km/hour).

Went to glenmarie sevice center just now. I was told that this is not covered under warranty due my car is 4 years old now. Quoted me rm1418 for both excluding workmanship.

Anyone have any idea whether i can make warranty claim on this? Is it considered as wear and tear parts?

Frown frown

lucifal if quote also will be same price because he is from Peugeot service center too.

i found one SKF at RM180 per bearing. wonder i need a full set or just bearing only.

Thank you all. I might buy from sparepart shop. Now wonder those tyre shop know how to change or not.

Gonna send in my xar for the enhancemenr program on 19.9.2016 at geut auto pj. Sc told me to leave my car there for a week....

I hate how dealers salesman and xarmaker mislead public with their 5 years warranty which in fact is 3years manufacturer warranty plus 2 years limited warranty that covers only engine and gearbox.

Ur cat no more warranty?

1.6T regular service is between rm400-500

Its very disturbing reading engine fault such as oil pump inside engine but it is not covered under EW. What exactly is covered then. Since it is inside engine. I suggest you ask for a formal quotation from glenmarie and file a complaint at consumer tribunal at a cost of rm5. I have a gut feeling that you will win the case.

I am very pissed off now. Few months back my wheel bearing was broken. Sent my car to Glenmarie for warranty claim but i was told that it is wear item. Not claimable.
Guess what i see at geo auto service center?
Claimable within 100km mileage. Mine was 90k mileage.

I am considering few options now.

Which SC?

Dear Skyjack,

there are more factors to be considered other than the Engine. The reliability of other parts as well as the response from the SC. I guess most of us are once bitten twice shy by the latter instead of the engine.

No doubt, the acceleration and kicks this car produce is overwhelming. Sad to say, coming to 5th year, i have changed turbo 2 times, Aircon compressor 1 time( Now waiting for 2nd claim under EWP), Rear Wheel Bearing( I saw from Geoauto SC guidelines pasted on the Cashier wall, it is supposed to be 100k warranty but mine was rejected at 82kkm ). Faulty Sensor 2 times. Frankly speaking, the aircon and Wheel Bearing are parts i can't tolerate as it is supposed to be long lasting with at least 5 years and above or 100kkm above.

Nevertheless, the speed of claim, the long waiting period while servicing our car, the difficulty of getting appointment which usually requires 1.5months, etc. All these are making us nuts. Imagine you made an appointment 1 month ago and was given a 8am slot. What would be the acceptable time waiting to get your car serviced? I was made to wait until 6pm!!! It is not a matter of given courtesy car, long queue bcos of too many cars, we could go to other places or to workplace and collect in the evening. But more towards the poor planning, short of manpower, and tidak apa attitude from the SC.

Kia on the other hand wins Peugeot in all aspects, 2 days needed to make appointments only, 2hours - 3 hours waiting period only. Parts reliability? already 5 years and nothing happened except the Front suspension requires replacement.

Just voice out my grouses through my experience with Peugeot SC.

@roxx

You should change both wheel bearing. No?

Also what brand you bought?
My rear bearing broke at 95k km. Both sides.

Sigh....

ya, i owned a waja with 200k km clocked in. no issue also. i guess it's luck la. Air con also good. 7 years of ownership.

This 408? tomorrow will be my 2nd time sending in for air con compresor replacement. RM4.6k. luckily under EWP.

I changed mine to SKF brand. so far so good. all in under RM500.

regards
