When driving a Peugeot 408, I often think about the transmission fluid. Manual transmissions usually require about 1.8 to 2.2 liters, which is typical for the 408 manual models. Automatic transmissions might need more, possibly over 4 liters, but it depends on the model year. I've driven an older manual 408, and if the fluid level is low, the transmission can get noisy and wear out faster. Remember, when changing the fluid, drain the old completely before adding new—better to visit the shop more often than to mess it up. Regular fluid checks are crucial; doing it every six months is a safe bet to avoid major repairs and extend your car's life.
