The high pressure fuel pump has a life rating of 5 million turns only.

Meaning to say, if you do 70-80 km daily trips with speeds below 110 kph, the pump should last about 5-6 years or longer. The replacement cost is over RM 4k easy. It used to be RM 2.5k many years ago.

However, if you always high rev and speeding over 150-160 kph plus high mileage driving, it will only last max 3-4 years. People who raced with their Peugeots often had another spare car to use.

Used pumps are useless because the core plunger is not replaceable and still has the same 5 million turns. So, if the used pump already been through 4 million turns and later recon or rebuild, the usable usage is only 1 million turns.

That's why some recon or rebuild only lasted 3-6 months. Pump sellers only give 3 months warranty and made huge profits. Worst still, some pumps were rebuild many times and each time the usable lifespan decreases.

Being the owner of 3008 year 2012, it would be better to avoid any turbo cars with high pressure pumps all together because that component has the highest failure in the car's life.

Right now, I'm selling my 3008 cheaply and moving to something else. Perhaps an Exora Bold CFE which has the same engine capacity plus turbo but no high pressure fuel pump.

Don't listen to the salesman or drivers who only used their Peugeots for weekends. Daily drivers or speed demons will suffer multiple holes in their wallets. Trust me. Been there before.

Why the pump failures? Simply because it was located in the hot engine bay. With our weather, the seals will start to breakdown sooner. Most conti has this type of setup since Day 1. Japanese or Korean marques had their high pressure fuel pump in the fuel tank where it is cooled by the fuel.

Overall, it was a good car but the amount of maintenance is no laughing joke. You can buy a cheap Peugeot for less than 10k but within a year, the repair costs can hit more than 10k easily. Plus, it behaves like a fuckin laptop with various nags and warnings.

ECU rosak is because that newbies mechanic or very old Unker who don't even know how to use a computer, is repairing the car.
Everything also they will say ECU rosak because they dunno how to diagnose correctly. My Peugeot (later father's) also same, die at traffic light, after tow to SC, when come down tow truck everything become OK. 1 week stay in Workshop also the old Unker mechanic say no issue.

In the end he say normally ECU going to die already. And the ECU will cost as much as a 2nd hand Peugeot

Perodua like sampan. Once u driven a French car, u never go back to Perodua unless no choice.

Personally, I prefer a Proton because of the Lotus handling. Perodua whatever also elek.

For 2nd or 3rd car ok.

If daily driven with many kilometres, sure fail one.

Mine was a daily driver for 10 years nonstop clocking over 291k km. Now retired 100% while I used the good old Savvy as a daily driver. Cheap, economical and zero thefts.

The high pressure fuel pump has a life rating of 5 million turns only.

Meaning to say, if you do 70-80 km daily trips with speeds below 110 kph, the pump should last about 5-6 years or longer. The replacement cost is over RM 4k easy. It used to be RM 2.5k many years ago.

However, if you always high rev and speeding over 150-160 kph plus high mileage driving, it will only last max 3-4 years. People who raced with their Peugeots often had another spare car to use.

Used pumps are useless because the core plunger is not replaceable and still has the same 5 million turns. So, if the used pump already been through 4 million turns and later recon or rebuild, the usable usage is only 1 million turns.

That's why some recon or rebuild only lasted 3-6 months. Pump sellers only give 3 months warranty and made huge profits. Worst still, some pumps were rebuild many times and each time the usable lifespan decreases.

Being the owner of 3008 year 2012, it would be better to avoid any turbo cars with high pressure pumps all together because that component has the highest failure in the car's life.

Right now, I'm selling my 3008 cheaply and moving to something else. Perhaps an Exora Bold CFE which has the same engine capacity plus turbo but no high pressure fuel pump.

Don't listen to the salesman or drivers who only used their Peugeots for weekends. Daily drivers or speed demons will suffer multiple holes in their wallets. Trust me. Been there before.

Why the pump failures? Simply because it was located in the hot engine bay. With our weather, the seals will start to breakdown sooner. Most conti has this type of setup since Day 1. Japanese or Korean marques had their high pressure fuel pump in the fuel tank where it is cooled by the fuel.

Overall, it was a good car but the amount of maintenance is no laughing joke. You can buy a cheap Peugeot for less than 10k but within a year, the repair costs can hit more than 10k easily. Plus, it behaves like a fuckin laptop with various nags and warnings.

Lol.... You got a point there

My pug, high pleasure pump also tukar once. Lucky beast my home edi. The car move like a jumping frog & buck like a buffalo. Lol.

Turbo really nice to tekan, true. Especially naik bukit... Can feel the warp speed. Lol

But my pug 5008... Still slow lah cuntpare with snakes sedan. But nice can bring my bicycle around to places to enjoy cycling new places.

from FB group I joined for the general Peugeot model, can then but sure need plenty of workshop visits. and hopefully that is not on the AC compressor issue (well known for this brand) and it cost an arm and a leg. And many more surprise light at dashboard.

ECU rosak is because that newbies mechanic or very old Unker who don't even know how to use a computer, is repairing the car.
Everything also they will say ECU rosak because they dunno how to diagnose correctly.  My Peugeot (later father's) also same, die at traffic light, after tow to SC, when come down tow truck everything become OK. 1 week stay in Workshop also the old Unker mechanic say no issue.

In the end he say normally ECU going to die already. And the ECU will cost as much as a 2nd hand Peugeot

ECU rosak was kinda normal for Conti in general and specifically when read for W212 E Class Merz model, and it cost a lot more. and what surprise was told by other owners, this was normal when hit high mileage. RM11k for original ECU or rm5k for recond, and another is rm6k for original TCU

Your generation of 3008 was crappy just like the 308 T7. I have the 308 T9 (2015) which uses the same high pressure fuel pump (HPFP) as the current generation 3008 and it lasted me 9 years / 160k km before requiring replacement and it was only RM1.5k for a brand new original part. The previous version in your car costs more than the new version but konks much faster. I agree that such parts should not die prematurely but based on the mileage and price for my case I think its not unreasonable for the current generation's HPFP.

I understand your frustration of having to deal with the crappy Pugs of that generation but the cars that came out 2014 onward are much better quality both in the drive train and also the interior build quality. The 408, e408, 308 T9, 3008 and 4008 based on the EMP2 platform are much more reliable and built to a higher standard. I understand that once bitten twice shy, but the hate on Peugeots, Kias and Hyundais are no longer warranted but are being perpetuated by former owners of their inferior products.

My wife 2014 Honda City CVT still ok until now. I guess how a person drive also play a role on the longevity of Honda CVT although you can see that Toyota CVT belt much thicker and stronger than Honda's.

I send my family cars, previous gen HRV for CVT to repair cz the belt burst inside already. So went to many CVT repair shops for finding cz price of repair differs by a lot, warranty offered also differs, most give 6 months warranty, only 1 shop I went last time offered a 1-year warranty while there are shops that only give 3 3-month warranty. Its important cz CVT repair price is expensive.

At the gb shop, it's mostly CVT gb under repair does not matter what brand, followed by dry clutch DCT VW, few only for normal auto torque converters.

Nowadays can fix de ECU, no need buy new if cannot fix why got recond selling? The problem is the person which can fix Merc ECU only few in Malaysia as need proper equipment to change the faulty chipset. This is trade secret among those continental mechanic even my mechanic also dont want intro me.

I think for the Merz E Class owner, when the do rough calculation, the brand new warranty sure play some part for the decision. Most recond, refurbish, especially ECU or ABS modules, rarely got shop/ individual offer higher than 6 months warranty, some even give 1 month warranty only for my car - abs modules if send for repair.

Sad to see many still prioritize resale values to define a good or bad car. The user experience, driving performance, handling, build quality, and anything else somehow rarely got mentioned. Obviously, continental cars in tropical climate countries like us may require more pampering, but not to the extent that they are worthless junk. I would prefer to spend more on maintaining a car in exchange for comfort and a better ride than driving a high resale value car with safety scandal issues because you can always make more money, but you only have 1 life.

Most Malaysians prefer to have good RV for their car rather than a safe ride for their family. They love money and are willing to let their kids die just to get a bit more money when they sell their car so that they can buy another crappy car with good RV.
