I learnt to drive on this exact model in 2016-17 & I absolutely hated it. Bad handling, poor visibility, insipid to drive. Then I switched to a Suzuki swift & it was like night and day.

Ahhh good man! Yeah the blind spots are awful on it! Especially as a leaner! Suzuki is probably far better in reliability too!

If the car has had a recent MOT how many of these issues should you still check for? If the car has had a recent service, can you skip the checks altogether?
@TheTriumphGuy101 25 күн бұрын
Q1 - it all depends, I’ve had guys buy cars with a new MOT and it’s ended up being dodgy! So please be diligent on the checks Q2 - a service tends not to do MOT checks, they change filters and fluids and MAYBE a belt, if they take it to a good garage they may advice on stuff but normally they don’t. Also check that the service they have done is the correct one, IE an Oli change at 100k or 7 years will not change the timing belt In summery, don’t trust a service or MOT as a garenteed good buy. If you are local to Dorset I would be happy to help you in person

what is dry belt and what is wet belt? which is better?
@TheTriumphGuy101 Ай бұрын
Ideally you want a timing chain - unfortunately these are on older cars and quite rare on new cars, main reason behind this is, they tend to last a lot of mileage. If not, the whole life of the car if properly serviced. Dry belt - is like a timing chain but made from rubber. These are changed in accordance with your service manual which is normal every 100k mile or 7 - 8 years. A wet belt - is the top two combines. It’s a rubber belt but submerged in oil. The manufactured will recommend similar intervals to above, however, they are reliable. Mine died after 35k miles, I hear the same horror stories with other manufactures, sometimes as low as 10k. These belts often disintegrate which means the oil strainer gets clogged and starvs the engine of oil OR Snaps. Ether or it’s a right off. I’ve seen ford eco boast (known in the trade as eco booms) snap as little as 10k and a couple of years old. I have spoken to Peugeot directly and they say the tech is getting better, but only time will tell. Would you like me to do a video on this? I have a wet belt - peugour 208 Dry belt - VW Touran Timing chain - g wagon & Spirfire
