40,000km Service

AHW308 has already clocked 40,000km. Sent for scheduled service/maintenance at regular SC. 'BMO' oil and Ori Peugeot's NGK Platinum Spark Plugs. Total expenses for 40,000km-service was RM771.20.

Pt tip at 40000km
Platinum Spark Plug electrodes at 40,000km

Tyres were also replaced with another set of CSC3 225/45/17
CSC3 tyre condition after being abused for 40,000km vs new


Notes:
1. The Ori Battery was replaced foc 18months ago [after barely 1 yr of abuse] and still kicking strongly! Probably will last over 2yrs...

2. The front brake pads/discs are still OK. May be need replacement for the first time at 50,000km. Whereas rear brake pads/disc can 'tahan' much longer.

Based on the service schedule, u need to change transmissions oil at 60,000km service. I think it is the right time for you to inform the sc what's happening as well.

Normally during wet season when you leave your car for so long in the porch there will be 'faulty gear box' warning when the moisture gets into the trsansmission. This warning will disappear after taking the car for a short spin and restarting the engine. If the warning persists better send the car to the sc immediately.

I believe that is also one of the reasons apart from the moisture intrusion. Onother reason is due to faulty solenoid valve. I had this experience with my 206. The valve was replaced foc.
