It's servicing interval is either 8000 miles or once a year. The service plan is approximately £9 per month.

 

The actual service schedule is as the OP stated, first initial service at 8000 miles or 1 year. Then subsequently every 16000 miles or 2 years.

 

Replacement of passenger compartment filter: Every 16,000 miles/2 years (Is that the pollen filter I am guessing?)
Replacement of brake fluid: Every 2 years.
Check of PH of coolant: 80,000 miles / 4 years. Then every 16,000 miles / 2 years.
Check of headlamp adjustment: 4 years. Then every 2 years

They really were scratching their heads for things to do to justify an annual service.

I’m just surprised they don’t require an oil change.

It seems that brake fluid is the new oil.

Check of headlamp adjustment: 4 years. Then every 2 years

Why is this needed? It's part of the MoT test annually from 3 years old.

 

I see a dealer service as part of the warranty

luckily £60 is better than £400

I started servicing my Brabus myself when they changed me for a big service then told me all the extras needed on a big service (spark plugs, cabin filter etc) didn’t need replacing as I’d not covered the mileage since the last service.

when I asked why I paid £200 more this time they said “we check more stuff”

in the end they replaced the spark plugs as a gesture of good will - wtf

after that I serviced myself

EV nice new easy but can’t diy with a new car

My 2008 got serviced at 8k now the garage is saying my next service is at 16k then 32k

but from what I can read it should be 8k then at 24k then at 40k

 

Yeah I think 24k and 40k is correct. I just got my Corsa serviced(same schedule as 208) and they wrote 24k in the next service due box in the service booklet.

 

Well after having the Rapid Charge update, they re-set our faulty dashboard service indicator. But looking on the app, it is still saying we were due a first service at 4,971 miles which we have now passed. AND that the car is also due it’s next service at 1 year or 9,942 miles and service after that at 2 years or 19,884 miles. It really boggles the mind how messed up the software and thinking is with the app.

 

Yes, my app shows our first service is due at 4,971 miles (which is 8,000 km)
Until reading this thread (thanks @MarkyM ) I had no idea this wasn't the case

 

My e2008 shows service due 4,971 miles. Going in to be reset and updated next week. How has the charging profile changed with the firmware update? I've used the built in satnav once and voice command always ends with me shouting abuse at it. Android Auto navigation and voice so much better.

 

The PSA cars sometimes had issues initiating a charge at public Rapid chargers using CCS. Seems to be ok since the update as used a few now without issue.
Perhaps you could inform the dealership that owners apps are still showing incorrect service schedules and mileages. This needs to be fed back to PSA HQ. Better coming from them than us. Seems difficult enough getting through to somebody competent enough.

 

Just a follow up on this thread. Our e-208 had its first inspection service today. 8,200 miles or so covered.
When booking it in last week, they quoted a price of £119 and also told me it would need an oil change and servicing was annually.( FFS!!)
Luckily for me we had it in WRITING when we put the car in for the charging update recently that the first service was quoted as £61.87. They found this somewhere on their system and then said they would “honour” that agreed price. Gee, Thanks!

Booked in for a “while you wait” service which took about 70 minutes. Car cleaned inside and out. Screen wash added. Have no idea what they would have done to the car as nothing needed doing. So that price and the time it took was just about acceptable...
But before leaving the service advisor told us the next service was due in 6 months!! She was informed that this was incorrect and then she looked somewhere else and came back and told us it was her mistake and that the next service was in fact due in 1 years time!
Couldn’t be arsed correcting her again. Seemingly nobody there knows anything even though they are meant to be the Service Advisors.
And the app still says the same thing. Service due annually. Also just realised in hindsight the car did not warn us via the dash display, that this inspection service was due. It used to previously when it thought the first service was due at 5000 miles but the dealership corrected this during the charging software update. Looks like they just wiped its memory of providing us with any service warnings!
But we have it in writing, from Peugeot UK Head Office, servicing, (when we bought the car) after the initial inspection service, is due every 2 years or 16,000 miles. Just find this whole thing tiring .

Mines due for first service at the end of next month. Not really worried about the price because that’s included in the subscription. I am interested in the While You Wait service if it’s only 70 minutes. Saves messing around with public transport or courtesy vehicles. Did they also do all the updates during that time as well? Particularly eager to get the one that improves charging speed.

 

I asked the dealer about servicing when ordering and he was less than convincing around the pricing but checked up on intervals and it matched a comment earlier in the thread: initial check at a year or 8000miles, whichever comes first, then 16k miles (didn’t mention timescale) followed by 32k, again no mention of time. When asked about cost I got some waffle around the first (8k) one costing “10% less than an ICE vehicle”. When I coughed at this he mentioned a service plan, dabbled about on the computer and came back with £11.09 a month. £62 odd sounds a whole lot better!

 

Looking on Peugeots website only the first service looks cheaper the rest £200+

 

So the £11 / month should work if doing 16k per year? If not then it won’t work if the servicing is actually miles and not time based after that first one. Dunno, not properly looked into it yet as no vehicle yet.
What on earth can they be doing to justify £200+

Edit: just looked here and dexter24 is right. £209 / £229

 

This is not what my last e208 said

JJ

 

4971, no more, no less. That’s a nice snappy figure for a brochure!

 

the Peugeot app is crap this is what mine says

 

There’s that 4971 miles again which just happens to be 8000 kilometre…. Hmmm….

 

am I ment to have 3 services in 1 year

 

Makes £11 / month seem like good value if it gets you 3 services!

 

The service interval in France is 12,500 km. This equates to 8k miles. Someone has taken this to be 8000 km and converted it to miles again, giving 4971 miles. If your service light comes on early, as mine has, you just ignore it. Or visit your local dealer and ask them to reset it if the little amber spanner bothers you.

 

On the Corsa E some have suffered the same issue. In the Corsa you can reset the service indicator yourself if it bothers you, hold down the menu button on the end of the indicator stalk as you start the car with the start button.

 

Does doing that give a menu of options or does it simply only reset the service indicator? (Can’t check on car as it’s not here yet! Just collecting various tips)

 

Just resets it I'm afraid.

 

OK, ta!

 

Spike to Pug - this is the service schedule for the e208

JJ

 

Seeing that list makes you think £50 / year sounds about right! Pollen filter, brake fluid, the rest would be under an hour surely?

 

From the Peugeot website. It states Year 1, Year 2 and then every 2 years after this or every 16,000 miles. And you will pay extra for the brake fluid (and presumably labour) which has to be changed every 2 years as well.

 

Clear as mud - “services due 16k miles or 2 years“ I presume what ever comes first? So what’s the year 1 service then? As a C4e owner there is the same level of confusion, I was told mine was 2 years, surprise surprise the app states something different…..

 

Talking to the salesman in the Peugeot dealership the other day (we haven't ordered one yet) he said the 1 year/8000 service is an initial check to ensure everything is working as it should be and any updates are all installed. After then the regular service interval applies from the following year/8,000 and every 2 years after then or 16,000 miles, whichever first. The assumption seems to be the average 208/Corsa does 8,000 miles per year and if you do more then you will have to service more often.

 

The Year 1/8,000 mile "service" isn't a real service. It's just a visual inspection which takes all of 30 minutes labour. The first "real service" is at year 2/16,000 miles and then at the same intervals after that.

Year 1/8,000 miles: visual inspection.
Year 2/16,000 miles: service
Year 4/32,000 miles: service
etc.

 

thanks - that’s what I thought tbh

when I take the car in to get the servicing schedule sorted and the spanner gone (and a door rattle fixed) I’ll ask again

JJ

 

So I dropped my e-208 GT off at Robins & Day this morning for it's Year 2 service (the car is two years old this week). The first service was after 12 months (2800 miles) now we are 24 months (5000 miles).

I was somewhat shocked to hear that I would be looking at a cost of around 320 quid when I collect it later (240 quid for the "core service" and 60 odd quid for the brake fluid change on top of that).... I had assumed that the 2nd year service was 240 quid because it included the brake fluid change but apparently not.

As far as I can tell the "core service" seems to be the application of several software downloads and a recall rectification.

When I go to collect it later I shall be asking for a full breakdown of what has been done. It's all a bit academic really as they've got us by the short hairs anyway since the battery warranty is now the most precious aspect of an EV and nobody dare stray away from main dealers as a result so we are pretty much hostages at this point......
