Peugeot 308 Clutch Replacement Parts

This crosses the boundary between the Mk1 308 (2007–2013) and the Mk2 308 (2013 onwards), and these are substantially different cars with different engines and transmissions, so a direct swap is very unlikely. Even if both cars share a similar displacement or fuel type, the engine codes and gearbox internals changed between generations. Confirm the engine code from your V5 or a VIN check and give it to the breaker so they can match the clutch kit correctly.

No — petrol and diesel engines are entirely different units with different clutch specifications, so a petrol clutch will not be compatible with a diesel application even within the same generation. The engine code is the most reliable way to identify exactly which clutch you need, as Peugeot used several different petrol and diesel units across the 308 range. Always give the breaker your engine code rather than just fuel type.

Trim level makes no difference to clutch fitment on the 308 — Access, Active, Allure, and GT are all badging and equipment grades, not mechanical variants. What determines clutch compatibility is the engine code and gearbox type, both of which can be the same across different trim levels. Focus on supplying the engine code and confirming whether your car has a manual gearbox.

A clutch exists on Peugeot 308s fitted with a manual gearbox, which covers a large proportion of the range across both the Mk1 (2007–2013) and Mk2 (2013 onwards) generations. Models fitted with a conventional automatic or EAT6 automatic gearbox do not use a traditional friction clutch in the same way, so it is worth confirming your gearbox type before searching. If your 308 is automatic and you are experiencing transmission slip or shudder, let the breaker know — they can advise on what internal components are relevant to your gearbox type.

The Mk2 308 ran from 2013 with a facelift arriving around 2017, and while many engine codes carried across that update, whether the clutch components interchange cleanly across the facelift boundary is something you should confirm with the breaker against your specific registration and engine code. Engine codes are the most reliable guide here, and if both cars share the same code the clutch is more likely to be compatible — but ancillary and mounting changes can occur mid-production. Give the breaker both registration numbers or both engine codes and let them verify.

Not necessarily — the 1.6 THP is a turbocharged petrol engine with its own specific clutch rating, and it is a different unit to the naturally aspirated 1.6 VTi even though the displacement sounds the same. Clutch kits are matched to the engine code and the torque output, so a clutch from a lower-output 1.6 may not be suitable for a THP application. Always quote your exact engine code to the breaker so they can supply the correctly rated clutch kit.
