Thus I can conclude free service from authorized SC do play an important role for owning a car?

SO far my fiesta claimed me less than 5k including two sets of wheel(4x MC5, 4xRE003, 2x used original rim), one battery (roadside breakdown on holiday week) for a span of 2.5 year.

Free item I got including free oil change/filter, wiper(front and back), brake pads and rotor skim

Battery if changed in SC also free. Warranty and free service ended tho. And timing belt change is needed in few months time.

Thus,this is for 2015 only. For last year, other parts like the high pressure pump,coolant, engine oil leak, major service so its +- the cost is around the same this year. For this car the tyres and batteries are a yearly affair

I dont have 2013 and earlier data since that time the car was still under warranty, and yes, so many parts was claimed during warranty period as well

Starting 2016 with few problems..

[attachmentid=5806164][attachmentid=5806166]

In addition to the leaky O rings and TPMS sensor, the aircond compressor/cooling coil/thermostat needs to be checked also, visual inspection todays shows that the coolant level is already at minimum.

Lets see how it goes on from here

Bro, if it's an O2 sensor issue better don't play2.. Get it replaced or your engine will suffer a slow death.

Why Peugeot so many problems punya? I've been driving my Honda for 6 years @ 70k KM & to be honest, nothing needs replacement. Just the regular service cost only.

Among Conti cars French cars are more problematic than VW or Ford. I think they just don't bother to tropicalize the parts for tropical climate. The problem with Ford are mainly DCT related and with VW DSG related. If die die must buy a Conti car I would go for Ford > VW > Peugeot in that order with Pug think 100 times first.

RM10K a year to maintain a normal family car is ridiculous. You may as well maintain a Merc or BMW.

The new Focus 1.5L turbo with normal 6 speed AT may remove worries about reliability so those who want to try a powerful Conti car without losing sleep over maintenance can consider it. Provided you don't mine the super low resale value of course.
