Hello everyone.
A little back history: my car had an accident early March this year (2015).
https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...post&p=73301513

After fixing this and that, still there are some issues unsolved.
1) Wind noise highway or straight road cruising 80kmh and above.
2) door handle opens with a rough thud instead of a smooth pull. (Anyway SC Manager is willing to go extra mile to help solve this).

Since the car was not driven for almost 4months, my mileage is quite low. Before I took it back it was more or less 45,000 and I requested SC to perform a service. And they took that as 50K service.

1) Now my car is at 53K++, should I do 60K major service or request for a normal service?

2) At 53K and (2 years 9 months since inception), air cond compressor kaput. Diesel engine like rattling sound at slow speed. Very irritating. If you had the same issue and had it fix by SC, did you manage to claim warranty? Any charges on labor for warranty claim? Any tips or advice to look out for when getting this fix?

3) I was quoted for 60,000 service between RM2,000 to 2,999.00. Any one can share their bill? I would appreciate your input. Thanks.
Have good day ppl.

4) I was told all SC now uses Mobil One engine oil, any comment or feed back? Back in 2013 started with TOTAL then PEtronas Syntium, now Mobile One.

Yes is a major service and major sum.
Since my car was left idle for 4 months and current at 53K mileage, SC Ipoh adminstered the major service on certain components. The remaining will be done when my mileage is closer to 60K.
The bill came up to RM1,650.00 more or less.

Yes I believe, is a major driving experience after gearbox oil change.

Air cond compressor changed just today and manage to get priority. Put in at 10am got car back at 3.30pm. 5 thumbs up for Glenmarie. I spoke to another 408T lady owner, she is also claiming warranty for Air cond compressor. SC did acknowledge the original part was defective. Question is the aircond compressor lifespan is just shy of 60,000km? Not cheap close to RM5K (including parts & labor & inspection).


Timing chain tensioner will be change the next service. Estimated the 2nd half of the 60K major service will be RM1,900

Bro jfc. Sorry unrelated to your question post . I would want to find out about your brake pads.

1) do you have to change the disc if use trw?
2) can share the place to buy the parts?
3) how is it so far at current usage mileage?

Thanks man.

I replaced my aircond compressor in November 2015 at Glenmarie HQ. Last Friday, aircond stopped working. Today 27th june i send into Glenmarie HQ again, voila diagnosis say compressor faulty.

7 months lifespan compressor. My manufacturer warranty ended March 2016 now on extended warranty. I'm sure most of u know the process and duration of this claim.

With that in mind, got a car w/o AC, how? Uber time?

Anyway, this situations also may spur conspiracy regarding the part i chg in November
or
maybe a more commercially viable option to declare it dead with forever to record parameter readings
or
SC target quota or kpi to achieve number of claims before raya?

LoL....maybe too much free coffee at SC....mind hyper now. And I'm still waiting for my car to record the readings to submit for insurance claim. "Feeling sad...."

I'm curious, wouldn't the cooling gas won't deplete unless there is a leak somewhere?
If my memory serves me correctly, air-cond like refrigerator r closed circuit loop systems.

Ext. Warranty Claim rejected on the basis that I have exceeded one of my service back in Oct 2014 by 175km~!!
Asked service manager, he said once rejected from now on, all will be di tanggung sendiri.

Car is less than 3 years 7 months old and 66,930km mileage.

Tune Insurance very the strict oh!

Any pug 408T owners now sendiri maintain car outside? Do share. Thanks.

SKY! Parts you buy from where? Asli Auto? or from AliExpress (DongFeng) China?

By Insurer not manufacturer. 5 Years warranty compose of 3 years manufacturer + 2 years by 3rd party.
They are strict.

I also buy OEM. Brake pads, batteries, tyres, wipers all can OEM. However, some proprietory parts like sensors....will need ori.

SKyJack, the aircond compressor changed in Nov 2015, tak kan less than 1 year died. Sometimes, SC officers will say certain things and engineer says other. If compressor issue, the aircond master (sifu) at PJ State can kao dim. If sensor issue then replace lor. This is gonna cost me my saving for the month.

Yes....must be +/-500KM from your last service mileage interval or within 6 months. For KIA is +/-1000KM.
However, my argument is why that has to do with eletrical parts failure? It is not that I skip servicing at all, right?
Looks like a policy terms and condition that doesn't make any sense. Correct me if wrong. Opinion from other PUG owners out there is welcome.

The other thing, do we have a list of spare parts list for like sensors, wiring, available for reference so that we can source for OEM parts when need to?
Any one came across such book or pdf?

SKyJack,
Where are these independent workshops? Any list for them? Do they mind if bring own parts and they charge labor for service?

Thank you very much. Orait, 70K service here I come. Gonna try Thinker motors since near by got awesome steam fish.
Will FR later.

Anyway, which recommend brand of engine oil to use now?
1.shell?
2. Castrol
3. Liqui Moly
4.
When is maintain by peugeot service i have used;
1. Total Quartz
2. Petrona syntium
3. Mobil one 5w30

Hi, what is your current mileage?

Thinker Motor at KD for 80K service for my 408T. Goood and friendly service.

Mobile 1 (the green color label) & Total only.
There is Ah Loy Sabah Pork noodles and a pokemon Gym at Yum Yum. Otherwise go for massage at D'touch. LoL!

Front headlamp plastic cover fogging up. Replacement part for the plastics where to source? The fogging more like the material itself is cracking

No more warranty. If you managed to claim, that's awesome.
Guess is from my own pocket for now. Anyway way to import from China (DongFeng Automotive)

No idea, but I know is the whole set. SC Ipoh quoted me around 1.9K for both change.

Hi all,

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

Thanks

Can share where you got that pricing?
