who's the slowpoke moderator hiding my post? wat's wrong with that post?  just wonder why Nigerians abuse the slightest privilege they have - even forum rights are supressed. this is a forum for crying out loud and you dont conceal people's post without a cogent or rational reason.  goosh! Nigeria has a long way to go. |

gloryland: The 'FOX' 406, is highly stable and durable. My best ride for long distance journies. Good fuel economy, very rugged suspensions, perfect stability on high speed, and comfortable interior with nice a.c chilling. Maintenance is cheaper than all japanese cars. Original and geniune spare parts are readily available and very cheap unlike toyota and honda parts. Another advantage is that the shock absorbers don't get bad, u only change linkages. The fox dislikes flood and dust. Don't wash ur engine with water and always change ur air cleaner/dust puruifier. Auto drive version is not recommended. The auto gerar box is problematic. The manual gear box costs 5k and hadly spoils. FOX is the best car for Nigerian roads.please did you say 5k for real? 1 Like |

I used Peugeot 406 EW12 for 10 years and no electrical faults, the fuel economy is excellent & the performance is to another level. The problems are not so as difficult as people say, just that there are no good mechanics here as such but you can still meet a few good ones. It's problem majorly is the timing belt, that needs to be checked yearly + Oxygen sensor(green colour). If the oxygen sensor on th exhaust is bad, then you get to see black smoke behind the vehicle. 3 Likes |

eazy12: The only thing abt EW12 is that sensors protect the engine for been damaged by Overheating & Low engine oil but aside this EW12 has a brilliant performance more than EW10. How EW12 protects it's engine is that once there's severe oil leakage Eg not replacing the dip stick & oil leaks out, it ceases acceleration & writes d fault for about 5 minutes before going off. Until oil or water is added as the case may be before vehicle starts 4 Likes |
