Second Hand Peugeot 3008 Flywheel

It depends on the engine fitted. Diesel variants of the 3008 — including the 1.6 HDi and 2.0 HDi — and many petrol variants use a dual-mass flywheel (DMF) rather than a traditional solid flywheel, so when buyers refer to a '3008 flywheel' they almost always mean the dual-mass unit. If your 3008 has a manual gearbox, a flywheel (almost certainly dual-mass) will be present; confirm the exact type fitted to your engine code with the breaker before ordering.

The first-generation 3008 ran from 2009 to 2016, and the second generation launched in 2017 — these are entirely different platforms with different engines, so a flywheel from the first generation will not cross to the second generation. Even within the same generation, fitment is driven by the engine code rather than the model year, so supply your engine code (found on your V5 or via a VIN check) to the breaker to ensure a correct match.

No, the trim level makes no difference to flywheel fitment on the 3008. The flywheel is determined entirely by the engine code and gearbox type, not by whether the car is an Access, Active, Allure, or GT. Buy on the basis of engine code and confirm with the breaker — trim only affects cosmetic and comfort equipment.

Automatic gearbox variants of the 3008 use a torque converter rather than a clutch, so they do not have a conventional flywheel or dual-mass flywheel — instead they have a driveplate (sometimes called a flex plate). If your 3008 is automatic and you are experiencing vibration or drivetrain noise, it is the driveplate you need to ask breakers about, not a flywheel.

The engine code is the single most important detail — fuel type and year alone are not sufficient, because Peugeot fitted several different engines across both generations of the 3008 that may share fuel type but use different flywheels. Your engine code is printed on your V5 logbook or can be retrieved via a VIN check, and supplying it to the breaker is the most reliable way to get the right part. Year and fuel type can help narrow the search but should never be the sole basis for confirming a match.

The first-generation 3008 received a facelift around 2013, and while some engines carried across the update, there is a possibility of ancillary or mounting changes mid-production that could affect interchangeability. The generation boundary is clear, but whether a specific flywheel crosses the 2013 facelift point safely is something you should confirm with the breaker against your exact registration and engine code rather than assume.
