My belt broke and after a while all electronics warning popped up, ac off, finally lost all power, emergency lights didn't work, power steering gone, and glided to side of road. Luckily I was not driving long distance and fast.

Could be a blessing in disguise, next week I am going long distance with family.

Sent in to CSL, hope they can get it fixed by tomorrow sad.gif Probably will cost me < RM2k.

Good to hear that you and the car are OK.

How long the belt has been running with the engine?

My car is about 2 years 4 mths now. Its 38k km now and 50k service due in 2 weeks time.

So I still don't know what went wrong, except this is my luck. SC told me only happens like 1 in every 100 car, could be a gut feel number.

HI All

Sometimes I can smell petrol when I get off the car, I suspect that there may be a leak at the valve/ joint  where the fuel tank n fuel line joins
Anyone had this problem ?
What is the fix for this
Appreciate any advice
*
I used to hv this problem, now I don't fill up till the pump auto stop, instead I manually estimate and stop before that.

No more smell.

Anyone knows where to get an under body guard, under the engine? Will this void warranty?

i think we can narrow down the defective parts as:

1. fuel pump
2. thermostat
3. a/c compressor
4. water pump

what else?
*
alignment left biased? or is this a feature? CSL SA recommended me to fix this at the Michelin tyre shop, jln satu (KW?) if I want.

Based on my experience, soon your aircond compressor gonna kaput. Maybe can still last for 1-2months time.

No harm to drive the car even if the aircon compressor fail. Just go to nearest SC. The tech might be able to confirm faulty compressor if got abnormal sound.

Usually how long have to leave car at SC for ac compressor?

Hi,

I just owned 408t car ..hehe. This is my first turbo car.
I wanna check with any Peugeot 408t owner here, is the engine sound very loud when still running?
I suspect especially when I on air-cond, the sound get louder.

Not sure is this normal.

Normal

Mine no compressor replacement, clic sent me these:
1. Timing
2. Breather hose – Labour
3. Oil Pump Solenoid
4. Water Pump
5. Turbo Electric Coolant Pump

So my compressor is good as it is? My car is 2.5 years.

I checked with sc and they said they hv to check the car first, and not necessarily replace all these items recommended by clic. Normal?

Guys,

I just called Glenmarie for 60k service, but they said they are full until 17 May! Unfortunately, Glenmarie is more convenient for me during weekdays, since I have some sound I want them to look at.

I read complains about geotauto, what are your views/experience?

Anywhere else with good service near Subang I can send my car in to?

Thanks.

EDIT:
Any smaller SCs but better service will do. Please recommend.
Another SC in KL sort of told me a while back that they are *very busy*, when I asked why it will take 2 weeks for my enhancement package, instead of 10 days. I am getting real tired.

Tks,let us know how this battery performs.
Bro, Geoauto is ok now. Sometime back they had some issues.but sorted out already. I've used them 3times already, no complaints.

You may try Seta Alam,but 1week for enhancement package is normal. I think as more pug owners are becoming aware of this package SC will take longer to fix a date. 3 of my friends came to of this package through me....hahaha!

Hi bro, thanks for the info, that's good to know. Is it easy to find parking at Geoauto? I have to send my car in at about 615am, to avoid jam etc, then find my way to go to work. Is it safe to leave car key with security guards?

Edit: my car has some ringing sound coming from under the steering, towards the left, when going over uneven roads sad.gif

As for enhancement package, I was told by CSL that it would take "at least" 2 weeks. I thought that's ridiculous.

Thanks.
