QUOTE(Thrust @ Feb 20 2016, 08:50 AM) 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. This post has been edited by kluseng: Feb 20 2016, 02:33 PM |

QUOTE(779364 @ Feb 26 2017, 01:08 PM) Damn bro, felt sorry for you for owning a lemon car. I think among all the conti cars, french cars are the most problematic. Had my fair share of spending money to maintain a BMW E60. Only thing that costed me an arm and a leg is the high pressure fuel pump, electric water pump and the active steering sensor (recond). That was the only expensive fix. Others are the usual wear and tear parts I don't think his Peugeot is a lemon car. It's just an average Peugeot. |

Actually, maintaining a Peugeot can already maintain a BMW 3 series so why not buy a cheap second hand 3 series and drive that instead?
