Hi
I’ve a peugeot 3008 2013 1.6 diesel semi automatic. It has 86k kilometres on it. Now i feel like the transmission makes some noise everytime i put it in drive. Thinking of changing transmission fluid. Not sure what oil does it need. Checked owners manual it says it doesn’t needs to be changed which i find is not true. So i have been wondering what transmission oil should i use. There are some threads in the forum but nothing for 3008 not sure the other models have same engines. Can someone help? I am based in the Philippines and parts here for this car are super super hard to find and expensive at the same time.

hi, I am driving a 2011 508 Peugeot automatic in the UK.bought my car 2 years ago. I changed the gearbox oil straight away with Peugeot approved oil. after about 8000 miles the gearbox started to thud when put into drive. my mechanic advised me to change the oil again. he bought a cheaper oil and there have been no issues to date.don't know what grade he bought but it was out of a local auto shop. hope this helps.
