Hi guys.. Long time didn't post in here..

Just want to share something.. TL:DR

A couple of months back I noticed woo woo sound while driving (like helicopter sound) together with shaking internal cabin.. I can hear my house keys rattling like nobody business. So I went to kedai tayar in Jalan Ipoh to check maybe my alignment or nut chamber faulty..

Kedai tayar said the sound was due to uneven tyre that I used (Rovelo sport A1) hence making that sound appear. He even told me because of the bunga tayar sudah lain2 left and right that's why the sound very loud..

Since I very seldom drive my 408 so I don't go buy new donut.. And everyday I cursed that rovelo A1 that I've been using for 1yr++ because bring problem to me..

Yesterday went to tayar shop (weng heng kemuning) and bought 4 new donuts.. After complete everything I drove back and noticed THE SAME SOUND OF WOO WOO STILL EXISTS..!! I was like so damn frustrated I go back to ernest and told him why got that woo woo sound.. He told me it was...... Wheel MFCKR Bearing..

Finally after 3 years my left side wheel bearing failed.. Since no warranty I go for peugeot w/shop at sg ramal (MZ Auto) this morning.. Cost me RM410 left side include installation..

Checked with Euromotive and the parts alone cost RM320 1 piece.

Lesson learned. Before conclude tyre problem please check your wheel bearing..

You should change both wheel bearing. No?

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

Sigh....
*
Pomen told me right side still in good condition thus no need to change. Doubt on that I asked Mr. G and most of the forum informed that if 1 side faulty then only change 1 side.. If the mechanics said to change both sides then consumer need to find another workshop..

Shaitttee.. Didn't ask the brand.. Aiyohhh

QUOTE(SKYjack @ Nov 15 2016, 09:47 AM)
Guys don't be upset got to change wheel bearings at 100kkm +/-. This is quite normal for Contis. The same even with the perceived 'German quality'!

My former car BMW E39 presented the same issue at about the same km!

IMO better to change in pairs!
*
I have been using Malaysian car (Wira/Waja) for 22 years never encountered wheel bearing issue. Pakai ini after 100k kms first time kena.. doh.gif

but bearing normally will broke aroung 100k km(maybe early or late, mostly around that time) ..

same happen to my kenari last time ...

well, wear and tear item la ... rosak then just change jer .. not big deal ...

You touge racer of course 6 yrs pecah ady.. Hehehehe biggrin.gif

QUOTE(Termibait @ Nov 15 2016, 03:57 PM)
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. tongue.gif

regards

Maybe luck oso bro.. Because my waja wheel bearing no problem but others... bangwall.gif

QUOTE(darrez @ Nov 15 2016, 04:13 PM)
Not everything is the same, my previous Satria Neo CPS wheel bearing fail at just 60k KM, disk brake problem less than 10k KM and engine jerking no solution even after I left the car for 2 weeks at Proton COE...i even do my own dyno just to show them the problem but they said its normal vmad.gif
The old generation Satria can last me more than 190k KM without major issue confused.gif
Luckily manage to sell the satria neo CPS above loan balance sweat.gif

Now peugeot 408thp 100k KM no major problem except wear n tear... rclxms.gif
*
I think most of SC like that one.. Early2 said no problem.. After warranty finish then start telling my car got problem.. Like my 408 disc brake.. doh.gif

Usually new 408 are not included in the enhancement programme. You can double check with CLIC.

As no one has changed timing chain, don't know price. Is this SC price or outside workshop price. Checked chain price with Asli Auto?

Btw what km your car done?
Can bro! I got enhancement FOC, my warranty is void since I've been servicing outside workshop for a year now.

Thanks for your clarification bro.. Let me check with CLIC..

On the other hands, which workshop you went for servicing/others?

There's a few Pug workshops that can handle this work. Contacts & addresses are available at pg1 of V1. Pls feedback cost & quality of work, after using one of your choice.

On a preventive measure I recommend change of timing chain tensioner every 50kkm. This is the culprit for timing chain problems. It will cost less than $500,but saves the costly timing chain.

Any recommended shop that I can buy parts outside then pasang at their workshop?

MZ auto Kajang seems neglected to install parts not from their shop. I need to replace my front disk brake and brake pad quoted around RM800++

$800 for both front brake pads + disc + labour is reasonable.

I know front pads are around $200 a pair. If say labour for fixing both wheel is $100. That means both disc cost $500. That is $250 per disc.

I doubt you'll find cheaper elsewhere! Also saves you the trouble of finding the spare part shop to buy it.

Btw, is MZ auto clean environment?

At the moment,I am overseas. Will send you Peug Auto contact as soon as I get home. They are in Batu Tiga, I get my maintenance done here. But I doubt it will be cheaper!

Sad to say not clean enough.. sweat.gif
