Poner pegas or poner peros both mean to object to or complain about everything usually without a valid reason.
Example:
No importa cuánto me gaste en tus regalos, siempre les pones pegas.
No matter how much I spend on gifts for you, you always complain about them.

I would say it is to complain or quibble about something, or to object to something.
Does that fit your context?

Sorry, I had not seen your answer before posting mine, Roger. I apologize for the duplicate entry. - francobollo, Dec 29, 2012
The more the merrier! This way I got an example too, thanks to both of you! - DevinaS, Dec 29, 2012
No need to Franco. It´s the nature of this system. Plus, your answers are right far more often than mine, so you did her a favor. Very welcome Devina. - rogspax, Dec 30, 2012
