No two ac compressors are quite the same across different vehicles, so getting the specifics right matters when you buy used, second hand or a replacement. Answer a few quick questions below and breakers will only quote if they have the exact matching part in stock:
Both years fall within the Peugeot 308 Mk1 generation (2007–2013), so there is a reasonable chance of compatibility, but fitment is primarily driven by engine code rather than year alone. Pull your engine code from your V5 or a VIN check and supply it to the breaker, who can match it against the donor car. Never assume year alone guarantees a fit.
The 308 Mk1 ran from 2007 to 2013 and the Mk2 from 2013 onwards, so these are distinct generations with different platforms and engine families. Crossing that generation boundary is a significant jump, and whether a specific compressor carries over needs to be confirmed with the breaker against your exact registration and engine code. Do not assume parts are interchangeable across this boundary.
For mechanical parts like an AC compressor, trim level — whether Active, Access, Allure, GT Line, or GT — makes no difference to fitment. What matters is your engine code, fuel type, and gearbox type, not the badge on the boot. Bear in mind a compressor pulled from a different-spec car may look slightly different cosmetically due to ancillary brackets, but the core unit follows the engine, not the trim.
Yes, fuel type matters because petrol and diesel engines in the 308 range use different AC compressor variants. Always tell the breaker whether your car is petrol or diesel, and give them your engine code from the V5 — that single detail is more useful than anything else you can provide. Mixing fuel-type compressors is a common source of fitment problems on this model.
Gearbox type can affect how ancillary components are routed and mounted, so it is worth flagging to the breaker whether your car is manual or automatic. Give the breaker your full engine code and registration so they can check the donor car's specification against yours. Confirm this detail directly rather than assuming it makes no difference.
The 308 Mk2 received a facelift around 2017 rather than 2015, so a 2016 car sits in the pre-facelift Mk2 production run. Engine codes within the Mk2 generation are the primary fitment guide, and mid-production ancillary or mounting changes are possible, so confirm against your registration with the breaker rather than relying on year alone. Supplying your engine code will give the breaker the clearest basis for matching a suitable unit.
