@HirooKoslov Ай бұрын

Yeah, I never turn sport mode on in mine (2017 pre-facelift 270), there's no point, just makes the car sound weird, and makes rev matching harder. My one spent the first 3 years of its life near the sea, so I had to replace the exhaust last year. Had a local exhaust shop make a custom one for me, with no mid silencer and a free-flowing backbox, all in stainless steel. I asked them to make it look completely stock, and it does. It's a little bit louder, about the same volume as hot hatches used to be out of the factory, so not anti-social by any stretch. Luckily the rest of the bottom of the car aside from some of the suspension is aluminium, so won't rust. The only other mod I've done is to add sound deadening to the doors, wheel arches, and boot floor, so there's less road noise, as well as two-piece disks for the front so they're cheaper to replace (as well as significantly lighter, as the bell is aluminium). Other than that, I make sure to change the oil every 3000 miles, and get any maintainance done early. All common issues with these engines is caused by the oil change interval being too long, so it's really not worth skimping out on the £30 or so and 20-30 minutes it takes to change the oil and oil filter. You can do it without lifting the car. You can get Brembo ceramic pads for these calipers, but they're only sold in the USA, so I'm going to have to import them. That's what I'm planning to do next time I need to change the pads, that's going to be my next upgrade. Honestly, I'm probably going to keep this thing for a long time, it's high tech enough to be easy to live with, but the driving expereience feels quite old-school, I like how you need to rev the engine out for best effect, it does pretty good fuel economy (40MPG UK), and the boot is very big.

@SprellBtw 19 күн бұрын

If you press the button on the tip of the left lever, it switches between different options on the display when it is in sport mode. You can make it show you the speed, but sport mode only makes the pedal slightly more sensitive, and I'm not sure if this is correct, but I think it lets you go 250 if it is in sport mode as well. Other than that, the performance is the same. 😊 I'm glad to see more people reviewing this car because it's so much fun to drive, especially on the track!.😁

But then you are already going illegally fast.

I'm a VWAG Guy. I testdrove one back in 2016 I think. It was almost new with 3000Km on it. I can only agree that this car is absolutely great. The engine is very strong, revs freely. Also the build quality of the car in the interior is really good. The Denon Sound System sounds really good as well. The gear throw is a bit long (for my taste) and I'm also a "DSG Guy". But also the braking on this car is really really good. Honestly, this car is an almost perfect track tool. You need to get used to the i-Cockpit, but wasn't an issue for me. I also think that the car aged pretty well. A modern Version of this car with 290hp and a Dual Clutch Transmission would be an epic car. Compared to a MK6 or MK7 GTI this car feels lighter and more nimble. The Golf feels more settled and grown up. It's comparable with the difference of a Polo GTI to a Fiesta ST. But the 308 is less "hardcore" in terms of the dampers.

I really like the iCockpit idea, but it's screwed by one thing - the steering wheel needs another 10cm+ of telescopic adjustment. Then it's past your knees and your eyeline is above it...but no. Honestly though, for my weird T-Rex shape (long legs, actually average arms) the driving position in this is roughly average compared to other cars. I've got the 270 facelift (with a decat...). I wanted a hot hatch and while other cars are good in other ways, this is the only one that drives like how I dream a hot hatch drives. The rest are practical fast family cars, they're fine but not fun enough, even the i30N. Sport mode ruins the sound and the throttle response in exchange for a boost gauge and G-meter (tip of the right stalk button brings the speedo back). I never use it. Mainly though, the weight is so noticeable. This car is the proof that modern fast cars don't need to weigh 2.4 tonnes (BMW, Merc...). All that said, this isn't a perfect car: the gearbox is fussy with revs, 6th can be crunchy (in all 4 I've driven), the screen is slow for 2 mins on startup, it has only 1 front cupholder, no boot hooks and radar cruise is only available on slower versions which is silly. Still, I bought one with a budget of more than double what it cost, but this made me smile most.

Yes it's the same Prince engine but more reliable in 308 GTi for some unknown reason, the 308 GTi does suffer with fuel tank issues

Good performance, good handling, nice to drive despite poor pedals, agricultural gearshift, piss poor ergonomics - dumb steering wheel, reverse spinning tacho, all secondary controls on a slow touchscreen. Not one of the great Peugeot hot hatches.

The light weight was just a lie from peugeot, they took the weight of the most basic 308 with no option and put this weight on all the version of the 308 (you can find this info everywhere on google), In 2018 due to a change of the law (WLTP test) they were forced to communicate the weight of the actual car (with real actual finition, engine and option) and guess what, suddenly the 308 took 110kg, but in fact it was his real weight since the begining I still feel bad for the people who bought a 308gti and claiming everywhere they got a light bomb, while they just got a shittynormalweight car with a totally bad engine 😂

@spolo123 Ай бұрын

Though your story is true (the first part) I've weighted mine at 1320kg on a scale without me in it, with a full tank. Other hot hatches weight in with more that 150kg at least. That EMP2 platform really was a masterpiece of engineering. And btw why you think Max likes it this much 😊

Only downside is that the engine is unreliable. It uses the wet timing belt which means you need to replace that about every 60K kilometers (KM). Not sure what the other downsides are, but there are more if I'm not wrong.

@dgbservices6049 Ай бұрын

Dunno what you’ve been reading mate but I’ve owned one of these (currently looking for another one) and it absolutely does not have a wet belt system, it uses a reinforced, external chain for it’s valve timing. Think you maybe getting muddled up with Peugeot’s more modern 1.2 pure tech engines. A wet belt wouldn’t last 5 minutes with the amount of power these put out!

@mr.bossiegaming2530 Ай бұрын

@@dgbservices6049 My appology, I indeed twisted the models between pure tech engine and the engine from the 308 GTI. But what I do read is that the chain tensioners get's a failure which leads to a broken chain or stretched chain. Is this true? Also since you owned a 308 GTI, what are the positive and negatives of the car? I'm really interested in buying one for myself :)

@dgbservices6049 Ай бұрын

@@mr.bossiegaming2530 Regarding timing chain tensioner problems, On the earlier thp engines yes, the older 175hp version found in cars like the 207 GTi and Mini Cooper from like 15 years ago. Mechanically my 308 had no problems but then I did service it properly which is obviously important no matter what you go for. The only expensive problem that occurred was when the Alcon brakes needed replacing. Admittedly they were nearly £400 per wheel! 😳

Very reliable engine. The only problem is the brakes being very expensive. Biggest issue's are the front suspension failing/brake pistons rusting/and the fuel tank failing (but only if you overfill it) For the rest this car doesnt actualy have any big issue's. There are some examples of the gearbox failing aswell. But most of them are doing fine.
