Used power steering pumps vary between vehicles - and whether you call it used, second hand or a replacement, matching the right one matters. These are the details breakers need to match the right part to your car - our request form asks them so you only hear from suppliers with the correct part:
Yes, the Peugeot 406 was fitted with a hydraulic power steering pump across its production run from 1995 to 2004, on both petrol and diesel engine variants. The pump is belt-driven and mounted on the engine, so it is a genuine used part you can source from a breaker.
The Peugeot 406 ran in one generation throughout its life (1995–2004), with a facelift arriving in 1999 that updated the styling but used the same basic platform. Whether a pre-facelift pump from 1996 crosses over to a post-facelift 1999 car depends on the engine fitted, so you should confirm compatibility with the breaker against your exact registration before buying.
Yes, engine size and type do matter — the pump is sized to suit the weight and power characteristics of the engine it was paired with, so a pump from a 1.8 petrol and one from a 2.0 petrol or a 2.1 diesel are not necessarily interchangeable. Always tell the breaker your engine code and capacity, not just the model name, to make sure you get the right unit.
Trim level does not affect the power steering pump — the pump is determined by the engine fitted, not whether the car is an LX, SRi, or Executive. Any cosmetic differences between trims are irrelevant here, so focus on matching engine size and year rather than badge when speaking to a breaker.
The body style alone does not change the power steering pump, as the pump is engine-driven rather than body-dependent. However, if the estate or coupe was fitted with a different engine variant to your saloon, that could affect compatibility, so confirm the engine details with the breaker against both registrations.
Give the breaker your full registration number so they can check the engine code, capacity, and build date, as these are the details that determine which pump your car takes. Mentioning the year and whether it is pre- or post-1999 facelift is also helpful, but the registration lookup will give them the most accurate information to match the correct unit.
