Second Hand Peugeot 407 Steering Column

The Peugeot 407 ran from 2004 to 2011 and received a facelift in 2008, which brought exterior and interior trim updates but no fundamental change to the steering column architecture. In most cases a pre-facelift (2004–2007) and post-facelift (2008–2011) column are likely to be very similar, but because the 2008 refresh did introduce some revised interior components, you should confirm with the breaker that the donor column matches your exact registration before buying.

Yes, the 407 is a conventional front-wheel-drive saloon and estate with a standard steering column connecting the steering wheel to the rack, so the part definitely exists on this model. It is not shared directly with unrelated Peugeot models, so always quote your 407's registration to the breaker rather than assuming a column from a 206 or 308 will interchange.

Engine size does not typically affect the steering column itself on the 407 – the column is determined by the steering system (manual, power-assisted, or electric power-assisted) fitted to the car rather than by displacement. Check whether your car has hydraulic power steering or electric power steering, as these use different column assemblies, and confirm this detail with the breaker against your registration to make sure you get the right unit.

Trim level on the 407 does not fundamentally change the steering column fitment, so an SE column and an Executive column are generally the same mechanical part. The one practical difference to be aware of is that higher trims may have additional stalk controls or a different shroud attached to the column, so check with the breaker that any ancillary switches match your car, but the core column assembly should be interchangeable across trims.

A 2007 car is pre-facelift and a 2009 car is post-facelift (the facelift arrived for the 2008 model year), so these fall either side of the main refresh boundary. The steering column is unlikely to have changed dramatically across that boundary, but because some interior components were revised at the facelift, you should ask the breaker to check the part numbers against both registrations before committing to a purchase.

The 407 Coupé shares the same basic platform and steering system as the saloon and estate, so the column is likely to be compatible, but the Coupé did have a distinct interior and some revised components. Confirm with the breaker by supplying both registrations, as small differences in column length or stalk arrangement could affect fitment.
