Never buy a Peugeot,. There's a reason they stopped selling well in the world market... Don't find out why via your purse.

And you practically became a mechanic! You think that's the joy of owning a vehicle... You're not been truthful and you enjoy leading people astray...sincerely no sane car owner ever dreams of his car turning him or her to a mechanic which your Peugeot has turned you into....every car owners dream is to drive his car without hassles and if any issue comes up he'd be able to get an expert to fix it within a reasonable amount of resources
.time n money! But lo and behold you have become a mechanic and you are still looking for co travellers cos misery as they say loves company! Yet you boast comparing a Mercedes with Peugeot! Its an abomination an abominable utterance that requires adequate punishment... Lomomike see your colleague rescue him before I take him to the cleaners!

The beep sound is usually an indication that the previous owner replaced the engine ECU, BSI unit & key. In otherwords, the lion no longer have the original engine ECU & BSI unit the lion came to Nigeria with, which means the lion was most likely abused electrically that led to the death of the previous BSI unit & engine ECU. Or that they swapped in radio from another 607. Or that someone did a terrible wrong connection on the lion that have started crashing the gadget ECUs.

It's funny how you prefer only a Professional to diagnose the car which you ought to have done before the purchase of that lion. A lot of Nigerian men have contacted me to assist them in buying a Peugeot car in good condition. And when i informed them they would pay me N10,000 if that want that services from me, some would tell me they would rather risk it and buy the lion than pay me that amount. In otherwords, they would rather risk it and buy an electrically abused lion that could cost them thousands or hundreds to rectify or fixed after purchase (if they succeed in fixing the lion) than pay me 10k to avoid such nightmares ot prevent them from buying such abused lions in the first place. Men are known to be more logical than women in the past. But now, only very few men apply it. Women that have contacted me for services have been more logical than expected, which made me asked at point "Why do modern women act more masculine than modern men?" Anyway, like i have always said, you always have a choice no matter what, and your choice begets what you experience next.

If you are in Abuja, bring the Peugeot 607 to me for proper diagnosis. Hopefully, the lions wiring harness hasn't been butchered by Nigerian auto electricians and Mechanics & hopefully i can revert the abuse to factory, if that's the current state the lion.

Have you checked the battery in the boot whether it is functional? That battery is connected to a whole lot of electrical also look for a competent mechanic, Peugeot is out of the league of kazeem, I hope you won't allow them do practical with it

I'm on my second Peugeot a 607, and trust me that car is a tank, Ikenna351's posts actually increased my curiosity about the Peugeot brand and I don't regret it, my 2009 607 still has far more gadgets than an 2012 Toyota Camry. Argue with your ancestors.

You are talking about 2009 607, my 2006 407 full option has more features than that 2012 Camry.

Below is a comparison between a 2008 Peugeot 407 and a 2012 Toyota Camry.
The Camry even gulps more fuel than the Peugeot on city ride

Re: How Reliable Is Peugeot 607? by franklin93(m): 6:43pm On Aug 02, 2018
I have owned a peugeot 406 inline 4 cylinder (ew10) & lastly the peugeot 406 v6 which I eventually sold because of gas mileage since I signed up on Uber. After selling the V6, I used a Honda accord & now a Toyota yaris. I must say that I miss my peugeot, very reliable. Am only with the yaris cos of fuel economy for my business but that aside, the peugeot is a better car of all I have used.

Have you ever wondered why you have so many peugeot littered all over the streets of Abuja & Northern Nigeria known for rough terrain.? The answer is simply because of their reliability just like the way you see Toyota everywhere. If it was a bad brand you won't see them scattered allover the city & Northern Nigeria with the toughest terrains in Nigeria.

Do people still buy Nissan Murano's & Infiniti FX 35, 45 & most infiniti brands? The answer is NO. Now that's the definition of a bad product. Mercedes car is known for luxury & class but that's not to say they don't have their issues. Most recent Benz products from year 2008 till date are only good when they are new & they are prone to a lot of electrical issues due to a million sensors that controls most of the luxury gadgets and all. I have close pals that use Benz & sometimes they get frustrated with the electrical issues that never stops immediately they start giving issues. Resale value for most German cars is zero. It was war before my friend was able to sell his Mercedes E350 2008 model, eventually Cars45 bought it for 1.2million naira because he was frustrated with the vehicle springing up surprises daily.

In all, German cars are known for luxury & Class but that shouldn't be mistaken for reliability. The recent models are reliable in there own way but the most reliable Germans are from 2005 models down to the 90s.




abatically:


We can compare different cars based on their class, but only someone with a completely BIASED mind would even think of comparing a Peugeot 308 with a Mercedes Benz S class. Any person that does that should never be taken seriously, u sef think am. For someone to even think a Peeugeot 308 is better than a Mercedes Benz S class, then that person will also tell u a peugeot 206 is better than a G Wagon. No wonder someone here said a Peugeot 505 is his favorite full sized luxury sedan even when it is obvious the car is not even a full sized not to talk of luxury sedan.

Ikenna351, good day sir. I intend buying toyota avensis verso or mitsubishi grandis for transport. But after reading so many comments and the way you have defending this lion is out of this world (very constructive). So, iv decided to consider if Peugeot can be used for transport. Iv made a research and found Peugeot 807 a seven seater. how reliable is the car? Is there any other seven seater you can recomend? Like how much can i get the 807 seven seater? Thanks. Also add my no 08039154846 to the lion WhatsApp group.

Good morning everyone.

I just want to appreciate everyone that my write up here on Peugeot 607 has added value to. At least, about 10 persons have contacted me after reading going through the thread. About 3 of them purchased Peugeot 607 after reading the thread and have been enjoying them. About 4 found my explanations helpful, used them and got their Peugeot 607s back in good shape as designed, while the rest are hunting for 607s. I am not just talling about Nigerians, even non Nigerians from other parts of the planet Earth.

I am glad my explanations of Peugeot 607 systems made sense and added values to some people, even those very far away. Thank you all, for I am grateful for your commendations and encouragement. I will continue to educate people that wish to have and enjoy good lives, how best to run their Peugeot cars.
