Used Peugeot 3008 Window Winder Motor

The Peugeot 3008 ran in two generations: the first generation covered 2009 to 2016, and the second generation ran from 2016 onwards, with the two sharing no significant body panel or door architecture. Window winder motors are door-specific, so you need a motor from the correct generation to have any chance of it fitting. Always confirm the exact year and generation with the breaker against your registration before buying.

This is a cross-generation swap — the first-generation 3008 ended in 2016 and the second generation started in 2016, meaning a 2015 and a 2017 3008 are entirely different body structures with different door designs. It is very unlikely a first-gen motor will suit a second-gen door, but whether a specific part crosses that boundary should be confirmed with the breaker against your registration. Do not assume compatibility just because the model name is the same.

Yes, it matters significantly — the nearside (NS, passenger-side left) and offside (OS, driver-side right) motors are not interchangeable as they are handed to suit the door geometry. When sourcing a used motor, always tell the breaker clearly which side you need using NS or OS, and confirm it against your registration. Fitting the wrong side will mean the motor either will not physically fit or will run the window in the wrong direction.

Trim level does not affect window winder motor fitment on the Peugeot 3008 — the door shell and regulator mechanism are not changed between Active, Allure, GT, and other trim grades within the same generation. What matters is generation, side (NS/OS), and which door position (front or rear) you are replacing. You may find cosmetic differences in door furniture between trims, but the motor itself should not vary by trim, so any same-generation motor from the correct side is worth quoting on.

The first-generation 3008 (2009–2016) received a facelift in 2013, which updated styling but did not fundamentally redesign the door structure. In practice, window winder motors from pre-facelift and post-facelift first-generation cars are often compatible, but small production changes can occur mid-cycle, so you should confirm fitment with the breaker against your specific registration rather than rely solely on the facelift year. This is especially worth checking if your car is from close to the 2013 changeover period.

Engine type has no bearing on window winder motor fitment — the doors are the same regardless of whether the donor car was a diesel, petrol, or plug-in hybrid variant, provided it is the same generation and the same side. Focus your search on getting the correct generation (first-gen 2009–2016 or second-gen 2016 onwards) and the correct NS or OS side, and ask the breaker to verify against your registration.
