Japs no need maintenance

Maybe peug got some reliability problem. But i saw fews on nice 407 even 206 still running on the road. Peug for life also maybe.

I am now hunting for 7seater SUV. And 5008 in my top list until CX8 come out.

those old model use old na engine. latest one use newer turbo engine..less reliable but nice to drive if healthy

Not sure why Pug is having issues with their TC engines. Other car manufacturers are doing OK or not having as much reliability problems related to the TC engines. Why?

I read some where..current peug been teeted 1mile km in malaysia.

Just wondering how they manage to test it. In lab or drive it for 20hours a day

basically they use bmw engine (old engine but still a relatively new tech)..but not sure whats the problem. from experience (family used to own pug) those prob is avoidable.

oh the prince engine? that thing is crap, and more of Pug than a BMW. Later on Bimmers with smaller engine capacity needs started using the 3 potter 1.5L B38. Now Bimmer even has an underpowered B48 2.0L rated for 318i applications. So the 2.0L B48 is being used for 318i, 320i, and 330i.

So Bimmer dumped Pug's Prince and went their own way for their smaller cars; didn't know Pug kept the platform

pug still runs on prince engine. yeap the engine focus more on pug/citroen or mini. after that bmw use b38 for bmw/mini. actually for suv i'd prefer if pug malaysia venture more on their 2.2HDI engine. strong on torque.

bimmer didnt want to develop small engines so they JV with Pug. had a lot of issues so they switched to 3litte B38, also had some inherent issues (unbalanced), so now they are likely to go with B48 for all their engine needs, big or small

Let me drive this point in your hollow skull.
I buy cars because I like them and do not give a fk of their residual value.
Unlike you buy car asking salesman how much is resale value.

Basically he’s saying it’s his money and fk you. Pretty moot point to disagree with him or try to change his mind. Just accept that he voted with his own money and it’s none of your business really.

But more owners chime in. Cool.

It’s really not worth the effort to keep the car on the road for me. It’s comfortable but too much hassle for the average person who just wants to go from A to B. Which, explains why Toyota is the global market leader (assuming VW didn’t dethrone them). Old proven technology with dinosaur engines.

Frankly if I wanted to spend time maintaining a piece of crap I’d pick an Alfa Romeo over a Peugeot any day of the week.

ya2..agree. aircond & turbo prob for 308. while for 508 engine oil leaking until need to check and topup.

For previous onwer ie 508 or 308 .after how many years te problem start to surface?

And for new batch 500i/3008 ? It been 2/3 years already only spare part need a waiting long period.

My heart still on 5008 but the brain say otherwise

The repairs and maintenance will also take your breath away, maybe your kid's university fund too.

havent reach that stage yet..after the leaking issue, didnt wait much longer. trade in the car with a great loss.

Tried fortuner but felt like more truck. Time being only cx8 unless honda come with 7s CRV

And yet...

Must admit this is pretty cool

Saw some ppl here wonder hows the latest peugeot car would be.

I would share my opinion here:



Peugeot arent really bad as rumours stated.

Im a 2012 508 owner and so far there's no major problems. And i had change the Engine under EWP due to engine oil consumption problem (never affect any other performance).

PSA did a huge improvement from few years back and intend to enlarge its market. You could tell from recent program that has been taken like extend warranty, recall programs.

If you are ever consider RV before buying, i would only recommend you go for a property instead.


PS. im currently service at SC Johor, Kebunteh. and so far they are nice and did solve the issue straight to point.

Things change from time to time, dun get brainwash by those old mind set.


Cheers
