Second Hand Peugeot 106 Power Steering Pump

The vast majority of Peugeot 106s do not have power steering at all — the 106 was a small, light city car that Peugeot deemed light enough to drive without it, and the standard fitment across nearly all variants was unassisted rack-and-pinion steering. A power steering pump was not a standard or common factory fit on this model, so if you are searching for one you may be chasing a part that was never fitted to your car.

Almost certainly not, because the Peugeot 106 (both Phase 1, produced from 1991 to 1996, and Phase 2, produced from 1996 to 2004) was built with manual, unassisted steering as standard across the range. Heavy or stiff steering on a 106 is far more likely to be caused by a worn or tight steering rack, a damaged track rod, seized ball joints, or a tyre-pressure issue rather than any power steering component. If your steering has suddenly become heavier, have the rack and front suspension components inspected by a mechanic.

Peugeot did not officially list a hydraulic power steering pump as a factory option or standard fitment on any mainstream 106 variant sold in the UK, including the GTi, Rallye, XR, XN, XSi, Independence, or Quiksilver trims. Some very late or special-edition Continental-market cars may have had it as an option, but this was not a UK-market offering — if you believe your specific car has power steering, confirm with the breaker against your registration before ordering any parts.

Yes, it is possible that a previous owner retro-fitted an electric power steering (EPS) unit or adapted a pump from another vehicle, as this is a known modification in the 106 enthusiast community. However, because this was not a factory installation, there is no standard used pump that will bolt straight in — the correct donor part would depend entirely on what was previously fitted to your specific car. You would need to inspect what is currently on the car and confirm the exact unit with a breaker or specialist before sourcing a replacement.

Treat this with caution: because the 106 was not factory-fitted with a hydraulic power steering pump in standard UK specification, any pump listed for a 106 may be mislabelled, pulled from a modified car, or confused with a pump from a related platform such as the Citroën Saxo or Peugeot 206. Ask the breaker to confirm the registration of the donor vehicle and verify it against your own registration before purchasing, as returns on electrical or hydraulic components from breakers can be difficult.
