Intervals maintenance Peugeot 108

The inspection intervals for the Peugeot 108 depend on the engine. With the 1.0-litre engine, it is recommended that it be serviced every 15,000 kilometres or every 12 months. For the 1.2 litre petrol engine, on the other hand, the inspection schedule recommends 25,000 kilometres or 12 months. The service due date is also indicated by the car's service display, so you always know when your car is due for service.

Make sure that every service (or repair) is recorded in the service booklet. With the service book, you always have a service record of your car to hand, which is very useful for any warranty services, but also when you sell your Peugeot.

Maintenance expenditure on Peugeot 108

If no extraordinary work is required, the Peugeot 108 inspection is generally cheap. The average costs for maintenance according to the inspection plan, including an engine oil change, are around €220-270. However, if after a higher mileage, various wear parts (e.g. brake discs and pads or spark plugs) need to be replaced, the service costs rise considerably. You can save on maintenance by, for example, buying your own engine oil and taking it to the workshop. Consult with the workshop beforehand, because not all garages are waiting for this. You can also request quotes for maintenance from various garages in advance. The hourly rates can sometimes differ considerably and it can therefore be worthwhile to look beyond the first garage.

How to minimise maintenance costs on Peugeot 108

Apart from engine oil, you can also get many other spare parts in best brand quality at very reasonable prices in various online shops. Parts such as air, interior or oil filters, windscreen wipers, spark plugs, car batteries, brake system parts, shock absorbers, chassis springs and the like can easily be ordered online. All these parts can then be fitted to your Peugeot 108 during the inspection at a specialised workshop. You will save a lot of money compared to buying parts at the workshop. If you decide to buy this yourself, it is advisable to indicate this to the garage in advance so that they know about it. The garage may not be keen on this! It is also important that you order the official parts so that you can be sure that everything fits your Peugeot properly.
